      Ohhhh Franky.... I would have to say, Puerto Rico is a far more comfortable experience. Cuba is filled with.... don't have.... cant find.... not possible.... and si pero no..... San Juan is somewhat high priced
      or expensive in the tourist areas but cheaper in the local sections.... I love Puerto Rico thoroughly.... Its a place that I would have moved to if their economic situation was better. Cuba.... is that ugly girl that you are attracted to because she knows everything you like and how you like it... Puerto Rico is the beautiful girl that likes you but does care if you stay with her or go.....
      Side bar: The women in PR know that the gringos are oversexed and shy away for that reason... In Cuba, the women are 100% "with the shits" as the kids say.

    Trying to read between the lines here: is La Perla similar to the Garrison communities found in Kingston, Jamaica?

      La Perla is similar but is less organized based on political power.... They're not at all interested in harming innocent people either... In Ja, things can get hairy just based on presence.

If you show respect you get respect and will be able to walk through that whole hood like a god, but know your place and don't take photo's or video.
