In addition, condoms are also used in wineries in Havana. They use condoms to cover wine bottles. So when wine fermentation has reached its peak, judging by the growing condom, the wine owner sells his drink.

Even condoms are also used as balloons for children's concerts and parties. They blew it into a balloon, put it together and let the clear condom balloon collection fly in the wind.

The phenomenon of unusual condom use also has a cause. In addition to elastic and air-resistant condom textures, economic factors and the many circulating on the market are also the causes.

The supply of condoms in Cuba is relatively abundant, because there is a focus on countries in the Caribbean for sexual health. Also the price of condoms is very cheap because it is subsidized by the government.

So, don't be surprised if a traveler, if in Havana, Cuba on the beach is blowing a condom.
