Czech Republic

The Czech Republic is steeped in history and culture, from being the home of kings who ruled over the Holy Roman Empire, to enduring Communist Era influences, to today, when Prague stands as the gem of Eastern Europe, the ‘City of a Hundred Spires‘ and cute Christmas Markets.

I lived a couple of months in Prague and loved the underground bar scene – think fancy cocktails, having to find the right door, peeking in to see if there’s room, and being surprised by how chic and lively all of them are – it’s like all of Prague is down there!
