i am a tourguide and my apartment is a hostel








this weekend The Ross Twins and alexa rosenbloom invaded my living space, for 3 days of sightseeing and awesome times. we ventured to all the typical tourist destinations (old town square, prague castle, the john lennon wall, wenceslas square, etc etc.) and had some delicious food along the way. Radost FX for dinner one night (deeeeeeeelish vegetarian cuisine and also a club at night) and of course Bohemia Bagel for breakfast, plus awesome street food: langose, which is just like fried dough but better...mmm, smazeny syr = FRIED CHEESE on a hamburger bun, and many more things.

highlight of the weekend was definitely going to DOX Center for Contemporary Arts which, for the rest of April, is housing David Cerny's ENTROPA. Entropa is a massive sculpture (about the size of a 3 story house) that contains satirical depictions of every country in the European Union. the Czech Republic currently holds the presidential seat of the EU, and the sculpture was created for this reason. read this to get all the infoooooo. it is SO cool and huuuuuge!!!

the museum also had an exhibit of about 15 different Chess Boards, each hilarious, quirky, and weird in its own way. loved it.

after that we had lunch at cross club, which was delicious and CHEAP.

i love having visitors - they make me realize how much i really love in this city.
