STORYLINE
Cuba's Hemingway Fishing Tournament is in full swing as islanders and visitors alike pay tribute to the Nobel laureate.
Ernest Hemingway's legacy is strongly felt in Cuba and nowhere more so than in the small fishing village of Cojimar, just 8 kilometres (5 miles) east of Havana.
It was here that the man that locals affectionately named Papa spent much of his time and kept his boat.
During that time, Hemingway was inspired to write his award-winning novel The Old Man and the Sea.
Now, 50 years after his suicide, local villagers continue to pay homage to Papa with an internationally recognised fishing tournament that carries his name, and several weekends of back-to-back celebrations which include food, music and dancing throughout the picturesque town.
A monument to the writer takes centre stage in Cojimar's square.
The bronze bust of Hemingway, made entirely out of melted-down propellers donated by local fishermen, was commissioned a year after his death in 1961.
The monument stands a few feet from Cojimar's fort, built by the Spanish over 500 years ago, close to the spot where the author docked his boat, the Pilar.
Locals say the first fishing tournament took place in 1938, and in 1950 a group of Cojimar fishermen asked the American writer to collaborate with the tournament that would later carry his name.
In 1960, Cuban leader Fidel Castro participated in the tournament and won.
Hemingway presented Castro with a trophy in what is known to be their only encounter.
Photographs of the meeting adorn the walls of La Terraza, a restaurant that has become a shrine to Hemingway for both tourists and locals alike.
Carlos Yera, an 88-year-old local fisherman remembers him fondly.
Hemingway was a very good man. A marvellous man. He loved us, the fishermen, very much. He lived for us, Yera said.
The short novel, The Old Man and the Sea, written in 1952 about an old Cuban fisherman earned Hemingway the 1953 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction, and the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1954.
Hemingway left Cuba in the early days of Castro's revolution, never to return.
But in the hearts of many locals it is clear that he never really left.

50 year anniversary of historic meeting between Fidel and Hemingway

(28 Apr 2010)
STORYLINE
It has been half a century since two of the most iconic figures of their time met in the small Cuban fishing village of Cojimar, just 8 kilometres east of Havana, and local residents will never forget about the historic encounter that took place at the height of the Cold War.
It was 50 years ago this May that Cuban revolutionary leader Fidel Castro and American Nobel laureate Ernest Hemingway met for the first and only time.
Early in 1950, a group of fishermen from Cojimar asked the American writer, whom they affectionately nicknamed Papa, to collaborate with a fishing tournament that would later carry his name.
Hemingway lived in nearby Havana, and was a regular visitor to the town, where he kept his beloved boat Pilar docked next to the fort built by Spaniards hundreds of years ago to protect the entrance of the bay.
Ten years later, in 1960, fresh from having triumphed with his revolution the year before, Fidel Castro participated in the local fishing tournament and won.
The winning trophy was handed to Castro by Hemingway in what is known to be their first and only encounter.
This town remembers Fidel and Papa devotedly and recalls how Papa's favorite bar and watering hole was La Terraza, a seafood restaurant with a view of the sea and passing fishing boats.
The restaurant maintains a cordon around the table where Castro and Hemingway had lunch all those years ago.
Castro returned for lunch in 2002 accompanied by American film director Oliver Stone.
La Terraza has become somewhat of a shrine to Castro and Hemingway, and its walls are covered in photographs from that unforgettable day in 1960 when they visited.
Cojimar is the place where Hemingway gathered his inspiration to write The Old Man and the Sea, after he met some of the old timers of Cojimar and listened intently to their seafaring tales, over drinks.
Hemingway's novella, 'The Old Man and the Sea', published in 1952, was set in Cuba, and tells the tale of an old Cuban fisherman.
It would earn Hemingway the 1953 Pulitzer Prize and, later, the Nobel Prize for Literature.
Tourists travel from the four corners of the world to get a glimpse of La Terraza, with its beautiful views of the sea from its windows.
Before heading out to sea, the fishermen pass in front of Cojimar's monument to Hemingway, making sure that future generations will always remember Hemingway.
The bust sits prominently in the town's square overlooking the bay.
It was commissioned one year after his death and is made entirely of bronze propellers donated by the local fishermen and melted down to create the sculpture.
In November 2002, Fidel Castro visited Hemingway's former home in Havana, the Finca de Vigia (Lookout Farm in Spanish), along with Hemingway's granddaughter, Hillary Hemingway, and signed accords with U.S. scholars to preserve the author's letters and manuscripts left at the home.
American and Cuban experts collaborate on the restoration and preservation of 2,000 letters, 3,000 personal photographs and some draft fragments of novels and stories that were kept in the humid basement of Finca Vigia.
Funded by the Rockefeller Foundation, the joint effort by the New York-based Social Science Research Council and the Cuban National Council of Patrimony produces mircofilm copies of the material, restores some documents damaged by the Caribbean climate, and helps conserve the house, including a 9,000-volume library and Hemingway's fishing boat, Pilar.
The microfilm copies are stored at the John F. Kennedy Library in Boston, but originals stay at the Hemingway Museum at Finca Vigia, long a source of pride for Cuba.

And that presented me the opportunity to come here and, to come here and see Hemingway's Cuba has been a phenomenal experience. It's been just a lifetime experience for me.
11. Various of look-alikes walking past faded mural of revolutionary leader Ernesto Che Guevara, native of Argentina
STORYLINE
Six look-alikes of famed US author Ernest Hemingway celebrated his legacy on Saturday with a visit to the town in Cuba that inspired his award-winning novel The Old Man and the Sea.
The Hemingway look-alikes, from the United States and Canada, were visiting the island for the 14th International Hemingway Colloquium.
Hemingway's legacy is strongly felt in Cuba and nowhere more so than in the small fishing village of Cojimar, just 8 kilometres (5 miles) east of the capital Havana.
Cojimar is also the town that inspired The Old Man and the Sea.
Locals there affectionately named Hemingway Papa and it's where he spent much of his time and kept his boat.
That's also where one of Hemingway's favourite bars is located, La Terraza.
Now, more than 50 years after his suicide, local villagers flock to this bar to get a glimpse of Papa's likeness in the faces of visiting foreigners.
It's heart-warming because everybody here respects Ernest Hemingway. And I respect Ernest Hemingway. And one of the things that attracted me to him was that I found the compassion in the man, said Brian Sinclair, a Canadian actor who travels the world with his one-man show Hemingway on Stage.
La Terraza has become a Hemingway shrine, with photographs and tributes to the US writer.
These include a photo of Cuba's revolutionary leader Fidel Castro with Ernest Hemingway.
Early in 1950, a group of fishermen from Cojimar asked Hemingway to participate in a fishing tournament that would later carry his name.
In 1960, Fidel Castro participated in the tournament and won.
Hemingway gave Castro a trophy in what is known to be their first and only encounter.
To come here and see Hemingway's Cuba has been a phenomenal experience. It's been just a lifetime experience for me, said Gregory Fawcett, winner of the 2012 Hemingway Look-alike Contest held yearly in Key West, Florida.
The Old Man and the Sea, published in 1952, was written in Cuba, with a Cuban plot and Cuban characters.
A short novel about an old Cuban fisherman, it earned Hemingway the 1953 Pulitzer Journalism Prize and, later, the Nobel Prize.
Hemingway left Cuba in the early days of Fidel Castro's revolution, never to return.

STORYLINE
The annual Hemingway Fishing Tournament continued on Sunday off the shores of the fishing village of Cojimar with boats and crews trawling the waters for sailfish.
There is no prize money on offer - the foreign and local fishermen are purely competing for the prestigious Hemingway Tournament Trophy.
Locals say the first marlin fishing tournament was organised in Cuba by the Santa Cruz Yacht Club in 1938, and four years later it was followed by the Havana Yacht Club.
Early in 1950, a group of fishermen from Cojimar asked the American writer to collaborate with the tournament that would later carry his name.
In 1960, Cuban leader Fidel Castro participated in the tournament and won. Hemingway gave Castro a trophy in what is known to be their first and only encounter.
Hemingway's legacy is strongly felt in Cuba and nowhere more so than in the small fishing village of Cojimar, just 8 kilometres (5 miles) east of Havana.
It was here that the man that locals affectionately named Papa spent much of his time and kept his boat.
Now, 48 years after his suicide, local villagers continue to pay homage to Papa with the tournament and several weekends of back-to-back celebrations which include food, music and dancing throughout the picturesque town.
Before heading out to sea, the fishermen march in a children's parade in front of Cojimar's monument to their most famous guest.
The Hemingway bust sits prominently in the town's square and was commissioned one year after his death. It is made entirely of bronze propellers donated by local fishermen and melted down to create the sculpture.
The monument stands a few feet from Cojimar's castle built for protection by the Spaniards over 500 years ago and the spot where the author docked his boat, the Pilar.
Hemingway frequently visited the watering hole La Terraza, a seafood restaurant with a view of the sea and passing fishing boats.
This is where it is said he gathered inspiration to write The Old Man and the Sea after having met some of the old timers of Cojimar over mojitos and daiquiris and listened intently to their seafaring tales.

비냘레스에서 석회암은 분명 축복이다. 좋은 담배와 아름다운 풍경을 주었다. 그러나 아픈 역사도 함께 갖고 있다. 산 미구엘 동굴이 대표적이다. 지금은 관광객을 위한 카페로 이용되지만 지난 몇 백 년 동안 이곳은 도망친 노예들의 피난처였다. 길이 100여 미터, 입구는 두 개다. 노예들의 무덤도 있다. “이 부근에서만 50여 군데의 노예 도피처가 발견됐어요. 동부지역에는 더 많아요. 몇 백 개 되죠.” 반대쪽입구에는 이곳에서 피난했던 노예들의 생활이 재연되어있다. 바나나 잎으로 만든 잠자리와 그들이 모셨던 신도 있다. 노예 사낭꾼들에게 대항하기 위해 만든 무기가 보는 이를 가슴 아프게 한다. “끝까지 추적했어요. 사나운 개를 풀기도 했어요. 잡히면 무자비한 폭행을 가했어요. 처음 도망친 노예는 발목에다 체인을 채우고 두 번째 도망치다 잡히면 다른 노예들 앞에서 목을 매달아 죽였어요, 겁을 주기 위해서요.”

쿠바를 한 바퀴 돌아 마지막으로 들른 곳은 하바나다. 쿠바의 수도, 인구 200만의 하바나는 신시가지와 구시가지로 구분된다. 항구주변이 구시가지로 지난 몇 백 년 동안신대륙에서 가장 잘나가는 도시 중 하나였다. 크고 잘 지어진 건물들이 당시의 위상을 말해준다. 그러나 지금의 하바나는 잘 정돈된 편리함보다는 적당한 불편함 그리고 낡고 오래된 것을 보기 사람들이 찾는 곳이다. 아르마스광장도 그중 하나. 주말과 휴일이 되면 광장은 헌책방거리로 탈바꿈한다. 체 게바라와 음악잡지 등 쿠바의 색깔을 담은 책이 많이 팔린다. 하바나에서 관광객이 모이는 곳이면 어김없이 노천카페가 있고 또 노래가 있다. 어디든 라이브무대이며 노래를 부르는 사람들도 수시로 바뀐다. 모두들 밝고 경쾌한 노래를 부른다. 하바나의 또 다른 명물은 사진 모델들이다. 복장부터가 남다르다. 사진을 찍으려고 하면 어느새 옆에 서있다. 꽃이나 인형 같은 것을 팔기도 하지만 그들의 주된 목적은 팁이다. 노래 한가락으로 팁을 아깝지 않게 하는 이들도 있다.

Finally, the back wheel is stopped where Cuba is Havana. The capital of Cuba, Havana is 200 million people are divided Giro Dessau and the old town. Around the harbor was one of the most sought after cities in the New World, Old Town during the past few hundred years. Large, well-built buildings tell of the time phase. However, Havana now is better than moderate discomfort uncluttered convenience and outdated view that older people find places. Armas square is also one of them. If weekends and holidays, this square is transformed into a bookstall Street. It sold a lot of books containing the music magazines such as Che Guevara and the Cuban colors. The open-air cafes where tourists gather without fail when in Havana and has another song. Wherever people live on the stage and sing also change from time to time. Everybody sing bright and cheerful song. Another specialty are the pictures of models in Havana. Dress from the extraordinary. If you try to take a photo standing next to imperceptibly.

========= (954) 646 8246 and I'll take your number so Mario can contact you.

My friend Mario Llorente is a remarkable tour organizer. He begins with a question... What can you bring and share with the people of Cuba?

He will be happy to ask, What do you want to see? but he really wants to know What do you want to share? Why? Because the strongst memories I have of Cuba are the moments when locals were asking me questions. They are universally curious and interested in life outside the Island... and they want to share what they know about their passions, too.

This video gives you a tour of the highlights of my visit to Habana.

The harbor, the major fort
the beaches to the east,
the Malecón
taking photos of people and hearing the question, Can you send that photo to my cousin in Miami?

how can we serve each other?

The Cemetery, Ernest Hemingway's home (the estate with a view)

Old Havana, sharing coffee with university students

What do you want to share?

I wanted to share what I had found on the internet and two dozen students at the Foreign Language department of the university of Havana sat through four workshops in April 2013. What an honor to be in a room with students who did not check email or facebook updates on their mobile phones... why? because nobody had smartphones in the room. The students were there to hear what I had to share.

They spoke and understood English and they gave me lots of their attention. If you have a passion, perhaps you want to share it with a group in Havana.... and Mario Llorente can arrange to find that group for you.

You can also go to Cuba Libro and bring some books and magazines to share with the book store.

How about posing with John Lennon (the statue in Lennon Park)...

시내에서 30분정도 거리에 있는 코브레를 향했다. 구리가 채굴되던 광산으로 ‘산티아고 데 쿠바’의 경제적 기반이 된 곳이다. 호수처럼 물이 고인 곳이 광산이었다. 깊이가 135미터. 16세기, 처음 광산이 시작될 때는 지하갱도였지만 후에 위에서부터 파내려갔단다. “물이 파란 것은 구리가 녹아있기 때문입니다. 유황, 마그네슘, 니켈 등 다른 광물들도 함께 녹아있죠. 강한 산성이기 때문에 치명적인 피부병을 유발합니다.” 호수주변 곳곳에 구리를 캐던 갱도가 남아있다. 물건을 올려놓던 홈도 그대로다. 광산에서 일했던 광부들은 노예였다. 초창기에는 쿠바 원주민들이었으나 후에 아프리카에서 온 노예들로 대체 되었다.노예들의 3분의 1은 3년을 넘기지 못했다. 새로운 환경에 적응하지 못했기 때문이다. 노예상의 아랫부분은 사탕수수를 끓이던 가마다. 소의 얼굴에 마른 몸, 그리고 손짓이 강렬하다. “이 조각상은 노예들의 명예를 회복시키기 위해 세웠습니다. 초창기의 광산에는 안전시설이 거의 없었습니다. 정말 많은 노예들이 여기서 죽었죠. 혹독한 노동에 노예들은 반란도 자주 일으켰습니다.”
