My thirty-four years at the University of San Francisco will soon end. Passionate, compassionate, justice-oriented, smart, fun, wonderful former students like you contributed to a career that exceeded my wildest dreams. Thank you! As one marker of this milestone, Luis Enrique Bazan (Kique) is organizing a special People to People Delegation: Exploring Cuba Today January 10-17, 2027.

We are honored to invite you to join a select group of former USFers to share 8 days with our Cuban neighbors. There will be opportunities to engage Cubans about their first-hand realities. Kique has created a rich program of cultural and learning exchange that supports Cuban civil society, health and educational professionals, artists and entrepreneurs. We will also enjoy an excursion from Havana to visit the beautiful province of Matanzas and its UNESCO World Heritage Site. And, of course, we will soak up the vibrant culture and tour the sites!

I’ve shared learning experiences with many of you in El Salvador, the Mexico side of the US/Mexico border, Cambodia, India, Baja California (cycling 1200 miles!), Spain, Morocco, South Africa, the Philippines, Bhutan, and even the United States. I’ve never been to Cuba however, and would love to go with you! On this trip I am NOT the professor or organizer–I’m along for the ride. The trip is invitation only for former students. Our capacity is 15 people and participation is first come/first served.

We are excited to welcome you!
