4Cuba

According to a piece in the New York Times, a tourist influx of 3.5 million visitors over a year has resulted in shortage of food for local residents, who are now grabbling to purchase basic necessities, since the costs have soared as these essentials are not stocked by resorts and hotels to cater to uber cool tourists. Sad? You bet! Though the government has stepped in and capped prices of local good available to locals, I’ll take time for Cuba to recover from the tourist onslaught.

  1. Absolutely incorrect about the pigs. The pigs died from rotten feed that was sold by the previous corrupt government and killed many pigs through out the Bahamas. It had nothing to do with sand or alcohol.
