RE: Havana, walking betwen past and present [EN/ES]

I enjoyed the tour! The city is very clean, and wow, not a lot of traffic. It highlights the pink car. Lol. The contrast between the past and present is evident with those buildings and the fortress. I would compare Juan Clemente Zenea with Jose Rizal, our national hero in the Philippines, who was also executed during the Spanish colonization in the 19th c. He was also a doctor, an artist, poet, and writer, whose novels Noli Me Tangere and El Filibusterismo, inspired the Filipinos then to start a revolution against the Spanish government.

I love what you tell me about the history of the Philippines, and that it has similarities with Cuba. Thank you for your lovely appraisal of my city.

Cheers!
