What's Cuba like today? Many travelers want to know. Over 22 insightful stories, many photographs, helpful travel tips & concerns all drawn from a people-to-people mission I took to Cuba during the spring of 2016. This is the real Cuba as I experienced it, one that Obama probably did not get to see. If you are considering a trip to Cuba, you need this book!

This is my story, for her and for you.
