  1. It's impossible to contact Vianey by phone. They don't answer the phones. What a terrible job.
    In the middle of Covid, no one answers the phone. I've called every phone I've seen all week. And nothing.

  2. Good evening. Kind regards. Please help me purchase insurance for two people from Medellin, Colombia. We're traveling on January 2th and returning on February 30th. We'll be in Varadero for two nights and in Havana for five nights. We'll be attending the 6 Pedagogy event. Is that possible? Thank you, and have a nice evening.
    ps: our names are:
    David Palacio Zapata (seventh-semester architecture student at the National University, Medellin campus)
    Gustavo Bedoya Escobar (retired teacher and currently active in teaching) has participated in 8 pedagogy events in Havana.
