Other points addressed in the video are the internet, paperwork, street vendors or people who do not work.
“It’s not always good here. It’s quite slow, sometimes you lose connection,” she said about the Internet, while she says she has “never seen anything like it” when it comes to paperwork in the United States. “Here, if you go to do a procedure, you have to sign 500 things,” says this Cuban.
