    Us Québécois love going to Cuba, we’ve been vacationing there for ever! It’s amazing, not a single American in sight!

      Just went to Cancún, so many québécois! It’s a direct flight from YUL. Not that many Americans in some areas.

        I keep hearing this, but man was it not my experience. I may have just been unlucky, or maybe it was just our specific resort, but the food we ate on the resort was extremely disappointing. The best meal I ate whole week was a random lunch I ate in a disposable plate (the cochinita pibil was out of this world) before leaving Tulum. Meanwhile most food in Cuba was perfectly fine. On average not the best I ate in my life, but nothing terrible.

        Yes. Food is not great in Cuba. Unless you stay with a local and have the amazing fresh fruit for breakfast. And the coffee / dairy is amazing!

        Oh I think the dirt cheap, plentiful, delicious food is what I’ll miss the most in Mexico.

        The people are also genuinely wonderful (at least in Cancún), I’ve heard the opposite for the Dominican Republic. Don’t know about Cuba.
