After many years in Cuba, I´m still surprised by how all tourist gather around the same places, which is why I have designed my photography travels to see another authentic Cuba, visiting the best photography spots.


Photography , Cuba and teaching, are my passions. I teach my travelers/students the culture of my country and how to capture it with their cameras/smartphones.


Travelers come to my Cuban photo workshops hoping to take beautiful travel photographs.


I don´t only help get astonishing shots, but I also show them the professional way of telling photo stories by creating sequences with a selection of their best photos, "and reach beyond travel photography".


I facilitate access to Cuban culture, an you will be immersed in the extreme kindness and embrace of the Cuban people.


I aim to transform the traveler´perceptions of the Cuban experience. Participants sometimes arrive with pre-conceived notions of the country and leave with a much more profound understanding, wich is very different from what they arrived with, as well as with a different way of understanding and working with documentary andartistic photography.

4worldlovers: Capital of Cuba and the country's administrative, political, cultural and scientific center, it is also the capital of two provinces: City of Havana and Havana. Though only around 280 square miles (727 square kilometers) in size-0.65 percent of the archipelago's total area.

The Old Havana and system of forts led UNESCO to declare it a part of world heritage in 1982. Founded on its present site in 1519, the settlement of San Cristobal de La Habana prospered mainly due to its bay, which was a natural port of call for ships sailing to and from the New World. Starting in 1634, because of its strategic location, San Cristobal de La Habana was considered the key to the New World-as attested to by royal letters patent-and the main defense of the West Indies.

The Cuban capital consists of an immense number of buildings in a wide range of architectural styles, built in the course of nearly five centuries. These styles range from the pre-baroque to the baroque, neo-Gothic, neoclassical, eclectic, art noveau and art-deco, to the modern.
