The " Transat "
Veracruz, Santander, Cuba and Havana... names that make you dream, like that of the mythical Compagnie Générale Transatlantique, the "Transat" "French Line", which, from Saint-Nazaire, led to North America, Central America, aboard its prestigious liners, "the Normandie", "the Île-de-France"... In those years 1900/1930, women with long cigarette holders were delicately cheating their lips to the glasses of champagne brought to them by gentlemen in tuxedos...
The district of Havana
Veracruz, Santander, Cuba and Havana... names that can be found on some of the street signs in the Havana neighborhood, which tells the story of that time. Basque influence, neoclassical, art nouveau, there is an unusual accumulation of colorful wonders. Stroll as you please in this small seafront neighborhood, with its blue, yellow, orange and ochre houses, and don't miss the Havana street, where the private mansions are all more beautiful than the others!
