I've never heard of Generacion Y but it does sound interesting. Especially because it's hard for many of us who haven't lived in Cuba or traveled to Cuba to know what really goes on than what the government and news media tell us.<br><br>I've heard of "Three Cups of Tea" and I've been meaning to get my hands on it to. Perhaps that will be my next read. Thanks for the rec! :) Thanks Adriana! I've never heard of Generacion Y but it does sound interesting.

I've heard of “Three Cups of Tea” and I've been meaning to get my hands on it to. Perhaps that will be my next read. Thanks for the rec! :)

Yea, I wanted one with a nice skyline view as well but then I left my box and saw that the world was a much better view. Haha!

Yoani is a brave woman who last spoken out about the horrific reality of life in Cuba, the education system, the sanitation, the lack of freedom of speech, dirty hospitals, etc... She won a prize by Time magazine of one of the 100 most influential people in the world. It´s an eye opening book. Not sure if it´s selling where you live but search online if you are interested. Another great read is "Three Cups of Tea". Great book tip! and what an amazing story…

"Leaving Microsoft To Change The World" by John Wood sounds like a great read. As for the corner office, I used to want that too - preferably with a view over the Manhattan skyline. But "the world", much better! Hi Monica, Thanks for the book suggestion. “Leaving Microsoft To Change The World” by John Wood sounds like a great read.
