Cuba
Vintage cars, salsa, white beaches: Cuba is considered a trendy travel destination. But the sunny Caribbean Island has many dark sides. There is a shortage of almost all everyday necessities. Cubans earn between 15 and 25 euros a month. Despite food stamps, the income is at best enough for half a month.
