Nastravi!

it's czech for "cheers"...you have to look everyone in the eye when you say it or else you'll have bad luck for 7 years.








praha keeps getting better and better. still eating lots of interesting foods, meeting new people, and getting used to hearing new words every day. today in czech class, instead of having a normal class Zdenka took us to the grocery store and walked us through the aisles explaining what foods were what, how to judge the best types of wine (if its czech wine, it better be from Moravia), among other things. she then took us to Cafe Slavia, a restaurant that sits right on the Charles River, looking out at the gorgeous bridge and the western half of the city. over coffee and desert (and a cigarette for her..she claims coffee is nothing without cigarettes) she talked to us about the student revolts of the 60s and 80s and what makes the czech republic so unique. she took us on a backroads tour of prague, showing us some buildings that a tourguide would probably overlook. pretty awesome day overall.



a few nights ago, i went to a bar called Bed...you lie on a bed and drink wine. what could be better than that? shout out to K-lash, Swass, and Sara G - delicious crew :)

na shledanou!
