Talked to some Swedish guys staying at the same house as us. They said it is possible to buy local pesos at the bus station. We went straight to a pizzeria and bought our first local meal for $1 – which paid for 2 pizzas and a plate of spaghetti. However its unlikely we will be able to use local currency in most places.
We take a bus west to the country town of Vienales. We are met at the bus and stay in a "home stay" - which is basically somebody's spare room that they rent out - the cheapest form of accomodation for tourists. It lacks a little privacy though. Our hosts are Roberto and Lola - who are very friendly and eager for us to try cigars and the local drink - "mohito". I reluctantly oblige !
