From Chili,
to Belgium, to Cuba.

Fernanda her parents were refugees from Chili. After 2 years of imprisonment, her father decided to take his family to Belgium, where they lived there for 30 years. During this time Fernanda was born and our families become close. In 1982 they left to live in Cuba. Another 30 years later, I went to Cuba to get to know her, to hear her story.

Politics and history

Mostly, we talked about politics and the economic systems. This could lead to strong discussions.

Food

On a monthly base, there is a food provisioning for families. The system establishes the rations each person is allowed to buy through the system, and the frequency of supplies. 

Home

I will never forget the soulful character of the house, the different mango trees and the comfort of basics.
