Man, the more I learn about this place the more excited I get! So many interesting things. Is that true there's actually designated, manned hitch-hiking pick-up points?

I don't know about "manned" but a few times, I did bum a ride into the city. Despite FoL's views... if you are up for it, push the touriest boundaries and go see the Cuban cities, not just the beaches. Talk to the locals, I got invited into the house and a drink of one a one of Castro's retired sidekicks - very interesting experience.
And I would LOVE to go to North Korea right now. It would be amazing; but I hear its impossible to get a travel visa there.
They never pushed me to have my stuff, but the next time I go down there, I'm bringing 2 suitecases worth of stuff and coming back with nothing but a bag of cigars.
