Matanzas

On a photowalk with local photographers Julio César Garcìa and David López Cruz, we had the wonderful opportunity to visit David’s grandfather Evelio. On the occasion, we were served chicken soup, which was prepared with the help of his neighbors. A chicken was slaughtered, vegetables harvested, and the lovely Yoelmis devoted herself to the task.
