    Eighty percent of Cuba is forest, and they're relatively untouched -not harmed- by the people in the area, besides the never ending trails connected by all of them. When I was eight I got my first dirt bike for my birthday. I was ecstatic, and immediately wanted to ride it on the trails behind the camp house. I rode from sunup to sundown for two weeks straight.…

    Contrasts in Living – Cuba vs. the United States of America An island of great natural splendor and cultural beauty languishes in the Caribbean Sea just 90 miles south of the tip of Florida, directly separating the USA mainland from its own territory of Puerto Rico.

    The shape of modern day Cuban society is undoubtedly and irreversibly built on the goal of withstanding imperialistic advances from the United States. Since the end of the 19th century, the United States has attempted to shape Cuba into an expendable asset that helps drive the economical wagon of the most powerful nation on earth. In this paper I will discuss the imperialistic endeavours America subjected Cuba to prior to the Cuban Revolution, how biased and misinformed reporting on Cuba has helped shape a negative image of Cuba and discuss Cuba’s involvement in ending a war between South Africa and Angola as well as Namibia gaining its long fought for independence. Since the Cuban Revolution, public perception of Cuba has been one of a country…

    I have always loved the magnificent country that we live in, but after researching about Cuban’s desiring to migrate to this great land, I have realized how much I have taken for granted all that the Lord has blessed us with. Unfortunately, not all people groups are blessed in such a way, and this fact had been made clear to me when I looked into what Cubans need to live through, and do for their families in order to survive.
