There is only 3 km between the isle of Sicily and the mainland Italy but Sicily is nowhere near to the rest of the country. There are no well-maintained tourist attractions, no pristine streets here. Instead there is an exquisite cuisine, scorching sun, lively and chaotic street markets and people distinctly more relaxed than in any other part of Italy. There is something a bit raw, at times murky but so real and seductively beautiful that the only option you are given to is to succumb to its charms.

From the very first moment you set your foot in Havana, you simply cannot resist the sight of the crumbling art deco houses and vintage cars from the 50s rolling through the streets along with the infectious upbeat energy spreading like a plague from the middle-ages. The stimuli come from everywhere and silently molest all your senses - the latino tunes, the swagger, the swaying hips, gazes - fearless, quiet, confident.
Intimate, suggestive poses & smooth movements - for Cubans it is more than just a dance. When you are in Havana, consider visiting (not just once) La Casa del Sol - a colonial house from 1715, located in the very heart of Old Havana and offering private classes where you can have a chance to learn, enjoy, improve your dancing skills or alternatively become deeply depressed if you cannot feel the rythm of the music as myself.
