Unique and Interesting.

When you wake up in the morning and decide to go somewhere special, do you think Prague? Here is why you should! Praguers have a brilliant sense of humor, all-be-it Monty Python style.

Then don’t forget to take a small gift in anticipation for the results or tests that you may need; this isn’t bribery as that is illegal, it is merely a customary gesture of thanks! And if you want to really fit in than greet everyone in the shop, café or bar that you enter with “dobry den” which means hello; Praguers are very friendly and will welcome you with a smile.
