Important Apps for Cuba<\/h3>

As I mentioned before, internet access in Cuba isn\u2019t always available. Here\u2019s a list of apps you should download before your trip:<\/p>

• Offline maps<\/strong> – maps. me and Galileo maps <\/li>\n\n
• Triposo Travel Guide<\/strong> – I like this app because it has information on sights, places to eat and drink, hotels, hostels, weather, currency, and transportation. The app also features details on different locations, the history, and reviews from other travelers, which I found helpful. <\/li>\n\n
• Duolingo<\/strong> – awesome app for brushing up on your Spanish speaking skills<\/li>\n\n
• Google Translate<\/strong> – comes in handy for translating Spanish into English or any other language. <\/li>\n\n
• Splitwise <\/strong>– great for friends tracking shared expenses<\/li>\n\n
• XE converter <\/strong>– perfect for checking exchange rates<\/li><\/ul>

  Should I bring a gift for your host? <\/h3>

  It\u2019s totally up to you whether you want to give a gift to your casa particular host or new friends. In the past, I\u2019ve brought clothes and hygienic products. Trust me, whatever you decide to give will be greatly appreciated. <\/p>

  • Toothbrushes and toothpaste. These things can, of course, be found in Cuba, but there\u2019s not a lot of variety.<\/li>\n\n
  • Female hygiene products<\/li>\n\n
  • Shampoo and conditioner<\/li>\n\n
  • Mouthwash<\/li>\n\n
  • Beauty products such as moisturizers and even makeup<\/li>\n\n
  • Sunblock<\/li><\/ul>
    <\/div>

    What not to bring to Cuba?<\/h3>

    Here\u2019s a list of a few items I would recommend leaving at home<\/p>

    • Expensive jewelry or anything important you wouldn\u2019t want to lose<\/li>\n\n
    • Heels – I guarantee you won\u2019t even want to wear them! <\/li>\n\n
    • Formal\/fancy clothing <\/li>\n\n
    • Designer handbags <\/li><\/ul>
      <\/div>
