The tall building called Fosca is a source of pride for some Cubans. The building I am told has "everything" and is all paid for by the government, with 20% of it belonging to low income households. "In Cuba we are only allowed one place to live" a Cuban told me. A post shared by Amanda (@amandagetslost) on Apr 11, 2017 at 5:35pm PDT

When you enter Floridita it smells like how you imagine a Cuban bar should smell - of tobacco and rum. It was like stepping back in time to the days when Hemingway used to bar tend there. A post shared by Amanda (@amandagetslost) on Apr 11, 2017 at 5:42pm PDT

Walking down the streets of Old Havana you can find old colonial buildings that have not been taken care of in 50+ years. A post shared by Amanda (@amandagetslost) on Apr 11, 2017 at 5:38pm PDT

Because of the embargo, few new cars have been introduced to Cuba leaving these classic cars as some of the only options for personal transportation. It is not uncommon to see men out working on their cars like the one shown here. A post shared by Amanda (@amandagetslost) on Apr 11, 2017 at 5:24pm PDT

The sunsets over the beach in Essaouira, originally settled by the Phoenicians. This is the end of the African trade routes from Timbuktu back in the day. They would ship the goods up to Spain from here. A post shared by Amanda (@amandagetslost) on Feb 24, 2017 at 11:04am PST
