Europe is where it is at

Here I write from Europe now. I am in the Czech Republic which was formerly known as Czechslovakia. It became its own country in 1993 if I remember correctly. The city that I live in is Kralupy and it is just outside of the capital Prague. As North Americans we often think of our downtown areas as old. That is an understatement, the towns here are near ancient it seems to me. The buildings look like they could crumble at anytime. Hopefully not though. The buildings certainly have a lot of character. The building that I live in is pretty stunning in my books. I live right above a copy shop in the downtown core which is also right beside the ministry space where I will be working. I use the same entry as the ministry space. I have a spiral staircase to walk up to my floor to which there are three apartments. My ceilings are high and I love it! My bedroom is painted blue and many blue accents have been added. Have a taste.

I also made a trip to Prague last week so that I will know where my language course will be. I took a few pictures there, but I'll just add the picture of me and the Prague Castle in the distance behind me along with another of me about to enjoy a Czech dish.
