That’s right, we’re (over) halfway there! One hundred and sixty-five days ago, I entered the Czech Republic, and in one hundred and twenty-five days, I will return to the United States. I can’t believe that it’s passing so quickly. In my last...
This post is quite short, mostly because I have not been taking many photos. While I totally want to blame it on being in the moment and always being busy with something, I will try my best to take a bunch of photos, especially with the holidays coming up. I also...
Last Saturday (18.11) was the day to make another dream come true, and particularly, I was very excited to check this item off my dream list: See snow for the first time I woke up super early on Saturday – but I was going to see snow for the first time, so all the...
I can’t believe that two months have already passed by, everything seems to be happening way too fast and I don’t want my time here to be done so soon. I know that I still have 8 months left but it is still crazy how much has already happened. In this month a lot has...

Ahoj / Hello! I’ve been living in Prague for over 6 weeks now and I would like to tell you a bit about my experience so far. It’s fantastic: Prague is a beautiful city and you can just get off at any of the metro stations in the city centre and don’t have to look far...
