Official entry for the #monomad challenge hosted by @monochromes and @brumest


Hi, friends in the community, how are you all doing? Greetings. When I walk around Havana, most of the time I come across people who really catch my eye—whether because of their very personal way of expressing themselves or because of something specific—but I always try to take at least one photo of them.

Hola, amigos de la comunidad, ¿cómo les va? Saludos. Cuando camino por La Habana, la mayoría de las veces me encuentro con personajes que llaman mucho la atención, ya sea por su forma muy personal de expresarse o por algo en particular, pero siempre trato de hacerles aunque sea alguna foto.

This happened a few days ago, when a group of friends and I went out for a walk to take some photos, and on the city’s floating bridge, a man approached us saying he was a karate expert and wanted to show us how he’d mastered his art.

Esto sucedió hace algunos días, cuando un grupo de amigos y yo salimos a caminar para hacer un poco de fotografía y, en el puente flotante de la ciudad, se nos acercó un señor diciendo que era karateca y que quería enseñarnos cómo sabía dominar su arte.

That struck me as a bit out of the ordinary, so I quickly took the opportunity to snap a few photos of him as he performed his routine.

Aquello me pareció un poco fuera de lo común, así que rápidamente aproveché para hacerle algunas fotos mientras hacía su rutina.

In the end, I couldn’t tell if the person had some kind of mental disorder, although that seemed most likely based on what he was saying and the way he was acting.

Al final, no supe definir si la persona tenía algún tipo de trastorno mental, aunque era lo más probable según lo que me decía y su forma de actuar.

In short, he was just showing us what he loved to do; he told me he was born for karate, and, well, in a way, we were giving him that little bit of fame as he showed us what he was most passionate about.

En definitiva, estaba mostrando lo que le gustaba hacer; me decía que había nacido para el karate y, bueno, de alguna manera estábamos dándole ese pequeño espacio de fama donde nos enseñaba lo que más le apasionaba hacer.

And that’s all for today, dear friends. I hope you enjoyed the series I wanted to share with you. See you tomorrow with more street stories from Havana.

Y es todo por hoy, estimados amigos. Espero que les haya gustado la serie que he querido compartir. Nos vemos mañana con más historias callejeras de la ciudad de La Habana.
