\"\"<\/a>Sometimes in life, you get it all at once\u2026 Just the other day,\u00a0I was having a talk with my friend Jacky (El Yack) over\u00a0a Partagas and a pitch black espresso when he lay it on me. “I’m Cuban now”, he said. “What?”. He explained that from now on and no later than immediatly \u2026 he will be Cuban ! Cuban ??!!! Jacky \u00a0? Our Jacky ?! The one who brought me to the heart of Patagonia? The fine flyfisherman of the\u00a0Stora Laxa<\/a>\u2018s\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>salmon? The Frenchy from Umpqua, the king of bones from Las Salinas, the Prince of Aubrac, the Ambassador General of flyfishing ? Cuban !!! I couldn’t believe it. As soon as I stomached losing my compadre next door, I realized what an opportunity it presented! Cuba is always in our hearts and now we are more connected than ever: We are going to open a Mouching Embassy in Havana !!!<\/p>\n

We were lost in the fantasy and sinking deeper into our sofas when suddenly he stood up, waving his arm, walking across the room excitedly:\u00a0\u201cYou have no idea ! I just read the best guide ever written on Cuba!! And I\u2019m not saying A guide, I\u2019m talking about\u00a0THE BOOK<\/strong><\/a>!!\u201d.\u00a0<\/em>\u00a0He was animated but I was falling deeper into my Cuban fantasy.\u00a0I fell asleep in a cloud of cigar smoke and the fairies of flysfishing, dancing salsa, carried me away in an orgy of rythm and soul\u2026 As soon as I woke up I ran to the main bookstore and walked out with the precious guide in my hands,\u00a0CUBA by Sara Roumette<\/a>, \u00a0I was carrying it against my chest like a treasure. As I was back at\u00a0\u201cLe Mouching Residence\u201d,\u00a0<\/em>I opened the first page and already the sounds from the street are different\u2026it\u2019s Havana knocking at my ears, I instantly felt the heat of the cuban nights, where the gentle breeze brings in mambo rhythms. Suddenly I was there, surrounded by my Cuban friends, the sounds of dancing and dominos players shuffling their tiles like music. I\u2019m Cuban too.\u00a0\u00a0[vimeo\u00a0https:\/\/vimeo.com\/38073758]<\/p>\n

This guide from Sara Roumette is the best you can get , and we know what we are talking about. This isn’t a guide that will send you to massive tourist traps or overdone, over visited, \u00a0unauthentic places. Nope. This guide will make you downright Cuban ! So next time you go\u00a0tickeling tarpon<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0in Cuba\u2026 please stay an extra week, just to be Cuban, it\u2019s magical !<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
