Prague

First of all I need to start saying sorry to my great friend Veronika - she
is from Prague but she is great- she is an exception .Veronika,you can get
angry with me later on when we meet in Oz.I promise I will pay a very cold
Fosters to you ! oh Maybe 2 !!!!
Prague as everybody expects is very beautiful * it is not beautiful as I
thought ... but I don't need to be that honest on my site... as I have
friends from Prague !!! But one thing I know... It is the best place ever to

eat sweets... I think I got back all those undesirable kilos I had lost
walking all day in scotland
What surprised me most about Check Republic is its people....unfortunatelyI

cannot say it impressed me in a good way /people are quite unfriendly and
unwelcome.Most people just ignore you.Especially if they work at the
information booth in the train station.When you adventure to ask any information
in the tourist and train information in the station they just turn their back

to you and ignore you. I also need to tell you that at this time I am not
exagerating at all.... being 100% fair with reality !!!!
No wonder I paid double price for my ticket to Budapest ( as I am the
tightest person I have ever met it was quite painful... I hope I don't learn to

wash and dry toilet paper in the garden to save money like turksh people !!!

ahahahah). But it happens that I went to buy a train ticket to me and my mum

to go to Budapest and the lady from the station sold two tickets to us. As i

I am a foreigner and TOURIST ( most stupid species) I didn't know that there
it is possible to buy ONE ticket for 2 people. saving 50%/ I only discovered

that when I was already inside of the train. I think if my mum wasn't with me

I could easily go back and ask a refund !!!!
In the train I also discovered why people are so unwelcome at the stations.It

is because most of the people working there are old, and they have been
there since communism time. Time where you didn't need to be good at your
profession....just be there !!!!
I think the best profession in Check Republic at the moment is English
teacher. I think it is the best way to get rich at the moment...well I am
not so sure if it will leave you rich like if you had won a lottery premium...

but I promise you will have many students !!!
I think it is all problem of the communism that isolated the people for such

long time .... the next time I will study Russian before going to an ex
communist country.
But in the end was a very good experience to visit my first ex communist
country !
