In 2015, Gambel traveled to Cuba with 80 local leaders for a week-long conference in Havana. Our trip marked the first nonstop flight from New Orleans to Cuba since 1958.
We quickly fell in love with the people and the culture. Declared a World Heritage Site, Old Havana is one of the most architecturally diverse cities in the world. Its historic buildings line the streets, filled with vibrant color. Traveling there is like traveling back in time, with classic cars on every corner. The friendliest people you will ever meet sit outside talking with neighbors and ready to welcome you in.
