Prague: City of a Hundred Spires
After three days in Strasbourg, we landed in Prague in the Czech Republic. It’s a striking city with an incredible Old World charm due to the fact that it has over 1000 years of history mostly untouched despite two World Wars and occupation by the Soviets.

After a couple days in Bayeux, we took a bullet train to Strasbourg, on the opposite side of France and near the border of Germany. It’s been annexed so many times between the two countries that they don’t seem to know which they are, and that definitely is clear when you eat the food.

Hi! It’s been a busy past couple weeks, and I’m writing this from Prague as we get ready to leave for Krakow. I’ll be posting over the next few days some highlights of our travels across France and the Czech Republic.

Brighton: a royal scandal, unicycling hipsters and cheeky seagulls
