Praha


I had such a great weekend. I met some new friends from all over Europe and spent good time with some old friends as well. My flatmates are wonderful people and I'm really enjoying getting to know them. And thankfully, they don't mind (or at least I think they don't mind) all my questions about culture and language here in Praha. 

Last Friday David and I took a long walk all around the city. I know it's been said before but this is truly a magical place. I'm no photographer but I took a few pictures that I'll include here. 

Each day I feel more and more at home. There's still the uncomfortable situations that arise: not realizing there was assigned seating in the movie theater, not sure why I couldn't buy the banana at the grocery store, spending 10 minutes staring at the yogurt section to make sure I wasn't purchasing some cheese or cream. But I love all of it. And I know with time I'll begin to figure out more of these situations and feel as if I belong here. I look forward to that. But for now, I'm going to enjoy these difficult moments with a smile and a little laughter.

Please. Elaborate on the banana. Please.
