To house migrants like a concentration camp??!! Your definition of adventure is much different than mine.

Her daughter is 27. It’s a perfect time to live a little and experience something other than banal middle class American culture. You sound so basic and boring

The military base has a golf course (oooo!) and a McDonald’s. Yeah, that’s so different than banal middle class America.

“Basic” sounds like teenager talk.

Heh. Don't forget about the movie theater! And bowling...oooh!

You beat me to it but I was just going to say to that PP...umm...are you at all familiar with base life? Especially that particular base? It's like the definition of banal middle class American culture. Actually, besides the palm trees and beaches, it mostly reminds me of like...a small generic midwestern town in the 90s. Folks stationed there aren't traipsing around Cuba "on an adventure" in their free time In fact, you're only allowed to leave if it's on a plane, and you're going anywhere besides Cuba.

And there is a lot of depression and alcoholism there. It's a tiny, isolated place where you better like water sports because otherwise there isn't sh*t to do besides drink (and bowl/watch movies).

I'm the one who said it sounded like a great job for a 20-something looking for adventure, and I guess it really depends what you're looking for. I spent 5.5 years living and working on a small tropical island in my 20s and early 30s, and I wouldn't trade a second of it even though you could make many of the same complaints about the place where I lived. I guess if you want Paris, then this wouldn't be the thing - if you want this, then it sounds great. OP doesn't have to want to do it - and her daughter doesn't have to do it forever. Take the opportunities you've got and see a little something new. Obviously you've spent enough time there to know it's not for you - why can't OP's daughter do the same?

Well, lots of people like water sports! There is great diving, fishing, spearfishing, ok surfing, etc. It’s not a bad place to spend a year IMO. You sound like a boring person.

Yes, I enjoyed my time there! Plenty to do on base and beautiful scenery. Great experience for a young person

Yikes to both of yall

You’re not allowed to visit the real Cuba, and it’s very hard to get off the island. It can take days or weeks to get a flight if you are not a VIP.

You are stuck inside a small fenced-in military base.

Hell no

+1. Trump now wants to send 30k migrants (“the worst of the worst”) there while clearly there is not enough space. Does not sound like a good place to be in the near future
