Cuban culture is marked by a love of music and dance, and is highly influenced by African and Spanish styles. Come to Callejon de Hamel any Sunday at noon and you’ll find these colorful musicians on stilts, groups playing live music, and dancing galore. You will find it virtually impossible to stand still.© Jeremy Woodhouse | Pixelchrome.com

The cha-cha, rumba, and mambo all originated in Cuba, but for Cubans, dance is much more than just salsa. Sometimes, it seems that the entire country is learning to do some sort of dance, like the class above, where young Cubans are learning about their Spanish roots through Flamenco.© Jeremy Woodhouse | Pixelchrome.com

Cuba’s musical influences contributed to the creation of the jazz and salsa genre, along with the Argentine tango, Ghanaian high-life, and West African Afro beat. Walk along any street, and you’re bound to see someone carrying an instrument on their way from a music lesson, a performance, a casa de Musica jam, or just a park bench. © Jeremy Woodhouse | Pixelchrome.com

For generations, Cubans have cultivated tobacco and produced hand-rolled, premium cigars, enjoyed ubiquitously throughout the island as well as around the world—except the U.S. © Jeremy Woodhouse | Pixelchrome.com

Cigars, like other items made in Cuba, are prohibited from import by the decades-old embargo against Cuba. When our cigar-aficionado travelers visit Cuba, they smoke up a storm on location, because they can’t bring any home with them.© Jeremy Woodhouse | Pixelchrome.com

Cuban weather means plenty of time for swimming and enjoying the beach. Here, a young man back-dives off of the Malecón into the water below. Oh, and that sky? It’s not Photoshop. It’s the reality in Cuba for most of the year.

Kids in Cuba don’t entertain themselves with Xboxes, iPads, or similar pleasures. But don’t worry about them not having a rich and busy life at play. They’re out on the street or in the fields (sneakers optional) playing “football” (soccer to us), or baseball. Life is good as long as someone has a ball. If not, someone will invent one on the spot.© Jeremy Woodhouse | Pixelchrome.com

As in every corner of our planet, children are the future, and in Cuba, children are nurtured by a society that reveres family values. Children go to school; have enrichment activities from a very young age, ranging from music, dance, and community involvement; and they are, very obviously, living a happy life. Oh, and did I mention that Cuba has among the highest literacy rates in the entire world? © Jeremy Woodhouse | Pixelchrome.com

This might seem shocking to those of us who shudder at the thought of teen drivers, but this little guy, at age 8 or 9, is learning to drive the tractor. The grandfather is teaching his grandson to steer, and the look of pride on both their faces is impossible to miss. By the way, the tractor is itself a family treasure, probably close in age to the grandfather who owns it, and it will continue to work the same Cuban farm when the grandson’s feet finally reach the pedals and takes over. Just look at the images of vintage cars running the taxi business in Cuba if you don’t believe me. © Jeremy Woodhouse | Pixelchrome.com

Farming is one of the oldest trades in Cuba, and roughly 20 percent of the country’s residents farm for a living. Common crops include tomatoes, beans, lettuce, bananas, coffee, onions, and tobacco. But not everyone has a tractor, even a vintage model like the one above. As you travel through the Cuban countryside, you’ll often see farmers plowing rows behind a team of oxen. Hard work for sure, and probably one reason that so many rural Cubans have made their way to the cities in search of better and easier lives. In recent times, the Cuban government has instituted incentives for people to return to farming to try and increase the amount of food produced locally.© Jeremy Woodhouse | Pixelchrome.com

There are many fishermen in Cuba. Some of them fish for a living and others fish to catch dinner. Have lunch at any restaurant at the beach and you’ll enjoy a view of the fishing boats trawling for catch in the azure water. Ironically, your restaurant overlooking the water, which menu includes several succulent seafood entrees, most likely buys the fish it serves in frozen form from government suppliers. Most commercial fishing ventures are required sell their catch to the government, which then sells it to the restaurant. Lucky are the families of the fishermen, who get to eat their seafood fresh from the water. © Jeremy Woodhouse | Pixelchrome.com

Cars and tractors are not the only relics of a previous age still in use in Cuba. This old sewing machine, a Singer knock-off, continues to turn out ready-to-wear clothes for family and also for sale. A slow opening up of Cuba’s economy to small entrepreneurs has created hundreds of tiny businesses like this one. And if the sewing machine breaks down, the same ingenuity that keeps the antique cars and tractors running will save the day for our senior seamstress. It appears that there is no machine that some clever Cuban won’t figure out a way to fix.© Jeremy Woodhouse | Pixelchrome.com

Speaking of ingenuity, check out the welder in this image. He’s making a muffler for a ’65 Ford that he’s restoring from a major clunker to a fully operational taxi. Look carefully and you’ll see that the man with the goggles is welding a piece of pipe onto an old fire extinguisher, which will become his brand-new muffler. Did I mention the word “ingenious” yet?© Jeremy Woodhouse | Pixelchrome.com

Of course, not everyone gets around by car. A horse and buggy can easily transport a load of seed or hay, provide transportation for the average family, and serve as a minibus to take people from village to village for less than 10 cents a ride. © Jeremy Woodhouse | Pixelchrome.com

Then there are those places where roads are better suited to a single horse and rider. But don’t tell that to the driver of this vintage Chevy taxi, who will go anywhere for a fare, even if the suspension pays the price. © Jeremy Woodhouse | Pixelchrome.com

On the streets of Cuba, among the rusted Russian Ladas and the newer Korean and Japanese cars, you will find a veritable museum’s worth of U.S. vehicles, many in incredible condition. These cars are left over from the heady days when Americans considered Cuba their playground, and they are kept running by (may I say this again) ingenuity of their owners. These cars are a sight that makes Cuba unique among countries. Tourists love taking a spin in a shiny convertible of a certain vintage, and the drivers who park in front of tourist hotels can make an average monthly Cuban salary (about $30) from a single fare.© Jeremy Woodhouse | Pixelchrome.com
