Where to meet people from Cuba in Trinidad and Tobago

No community for people from Cuba exists in Trinidad and Tobago on Compatri yet. However, one first member is enough to open one in their city.

As soon as a community starts, its meetups show up on the events page, with the date, the venue and the number of attendees.

Compatri follows cities such as Port-d'Espagne, and each one can host its community.

Joining the Cuba community in Trinidad and Tobago

Compatri brings diasporas together where they live. First, you choose the community of your city. Then you discover what its members organise: meals, parties, afterworks or mutual aid. Finally, you message compatriots who share your interests.

You can also host your own meetup: a meal, an outing or a party. It then appears to members of your city, and you follow sign-ups from your account.

Your exact location never appears: other members only see an approximate area. In addition, joining a community and attending events costs nothing.

Cuban Liberation Day in Trinidad and Tobago
