A year already half gone way too soon

Everyone always says that you should enjoy the year to the fullest and enjoy the moment because time goes by really fast. And i didnt get that before, now i do. Time really just flies by really fast, without you even noticing it. That makes me respect and cherish all of our good times together with my friends and family even more, becuase i now see the walue that they hold. We have laughed, cried, smiled and been scared together, which has made us even closer.

I have had unforgettable moments like the first time we went skating together with my friend, had snowball fight, went sledding, ate kebab that was atleast 30cm long and overall all of our meetings where we get to meet our friends that live further away. Im also very greatefull for my families that have tried their best to show me all the great things here in Czechia like the Charles Bridge, the dancing house, prague castle and many others. Prague is really a mythical and very interesting city where you can find almost anything you could ever think of from really old castles to the tastiest pasta.

Many people say that czech people are really cold and shy, but i think its the quite opposite. Most of the people that i have met during my exhange have been really kind and helpful in every possible way. They have also showed me how to make amazing meals and pastries with delicious sauces and fillings. I will miss all these moments a lot when its time to go, but gladly thats not yet.

Just remember to live in the moment and dont turn down amazing opportunities!
