I know it's been a long time, but I promised I'm going to make more of an effort to blog on a regular basis. For those of you who don't know, I recently moved to Prague, Czech Republic. I started training this week at a few hostels. Right now I'm training at Sir Toby's. It's a wonderful hostel on the north side of Prague (www.sirtobys.com).
It's crazy to think that I'm actually living here now. I've dreamed of living in Europe for almost nine years... and now it's here! As I rode the tram today I had to stop my people watching and thank God that I'm here. He has truly made a dream come true... my dream of living in Europe. I feel like I fit in, although we'll see if that's true. I've heard most Europeans can always spot Americans by their shoes. So, I bought a pair of shoes here and second hand store my third day here. It's not that I'm ashamed to be an American, I'm actually very proud of it. But I really want to adapt to the culture. I want to learn the ways of being Czech. I also want to speak Czech... I know that will take some time though.
I think I'm going to really love working at the hostels. I'm not just saying that either. I mean where else can you work and meet people from 10 different countries in one afternoon!
Please praise God with me for bringing me to Prague. I miss my family and friends immensely, but I'm confident I'm in the right place!
much love,
Daniel
