"This is my entry to the Pinmapple If I had $1000 Contest"

"Esta es mi entrada al Concurso Pinmapple Si tuviera $ 1000"

Considering that we are already entering the final part of this nice Contest entitled Pinmapple & Haveyoubeenhere 1000 contest I have decided to participate and make my fantasy wander in these times of pandemic where you can fantasize very little.

In fact, I have traveled a lot in my life by air, which is why I suppose that with USD 1,000 we can do little that is not pay for the air ticket and some other things.

But, in the same way, with a little imagination and fantasy, I can tell you where I would like to go if, suddenly, I found myself with that money in hand and did not need it for any elementary need.

Considerando que ya estamos entrando en la parte final de este simpático Concurso titulado Pinmapple & Haveyoubeenhere 1000 contest he decidido participar y hacer vagar mi fantasía en estos tiempos d epandemia donde se puede fantasticar muy poco.

En realidad he viajado bastante en mi vida en aéreo razón por la cual supongo que con USD 1.000 poco podemos hacer que no sea pagar el boleto aéreo y algunas cosillas más.

Pero, de igual manera, con un poco de imaginación y fantasía les puedo contar donde me gustaría ir si, de repente, me encontrara con ese dinero en la mano y no lo necesitara para ninguna neceidad elemental.

The goal: Ciénaga de Zapata National Park (Cuba) / La meta: Parque Nacional Ciénaga de Zapata (Cuba)

I have lived in Europe for several years and, in such confiction, I have been able to visit several of the European capitals, which is why this part of the world geography does not have the incentive of the unknown.

Instead I would like to visit, at least once in my life, the island of Cuba.

Political speeches aside Cuba has not only Varadero where all the tourists go. It has many places of priceless natural beauty.

I remember many years ago, when I was still young and could afford to cultivate certain hobbies in the absence of family responsibilities and so on, I practiced the hobby of philately (and I still do it) and corresponded with many correspondents around the world.

And one of them was Cuban. I learned a lot from that exchange of letters and the idea of ​​getting to know Cuba one day was always engraved in my memory. Unfortunately I have never been able to fulfill that dream. And that, at certain times, it was not even that expensive to travel.

And one of the recommended places was the Cinaga de Zapata Natural Park, ideal for those who like tourism in contact with nature.

It is the closest thing to the Brazilian Pantanal but in a much smaller version. Esteros and lagoons with an incredible amount of birds and animals of all kinds.

He vivido varios años en Europa y, en tal confición, he podido visitar varias de las capitales europeas razón por la cuál ese parte de la geografía mundial no tiene el aliciente de lo desconocido.

En cambio me gustaría visitar, al menos una vez en la vida, la isla de Cuba.

Discursos políticos aparte Cuba tiene no solo Varadero donde van todos los turistas. Tiene muchos lugares de una impagable belleza natural.

Recuerdo que hace muchos años, cuando todavía era joven y me podía permitir cultivar ciertos hobbys ante la falta de responsabilidades familiares y demás, practicaba el hobby de la filatelia (y lo sigo practicando aún) y mantenía correspondencia con muchos corresponsales en todo el mundo.

Y uno de ellos era cubano. Aprendí mucho de ese intercambio epistolar y me quedó siempre grabado en la memoria la idea de conocer Cuba algún día. Desgraciadamente nunca he podido cumplir ese sueño. Y eso que, en determinados momentos, no era ni siquiera tan caro viajar.

Y uno de los lugares recomendados era el Parque Natural Ciénaga de Zapata ideal para aquellos queles gusta el turismo en contacto con la naturaleza.

Es lo más parecido al Pantanal brasileño pero en versión mucho más reducida. Esteros y lagunas con una increíble cantidad de pájaros y animales de todo tipo.
