Heard a story on NPR about someone who recently went home to Cuba from Spain. Said that in the past people in Cuba would ask him to bring electronics (stuff they couldn't get in Cuba), but this time when he asked family back in Cuba what they wanted him to bring they said "Food". When he got there he picked up a hitch hiker on the drive from Havana to his home town (in the past this was very common and very safe). The woman advised him that really shouldn't pick up hitch hikers because they tend to rob you. She was a healthcare professional of some sort and said she had to do several side jobs just to survive.
