Hello everybody!

Me (Michael) and my wife Petra come from the Czech Republic, of which the capital city is Prague (Praha). We lived in Prague for a few years and we worked in a hospital as nurses.

About 1 200 000 people live in this beautiful city. The city has a temperate climate, with warm summers and cold winters. Now, in our country winter is starting and here it is so hot. (We are happy that we can be here). In Prague we can see buildings from the Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque eras.

If you come to this city you can visit Prague Castle, The Charles Bridge, Old Town Square with the Prague astronomical clock, the Jewish Quarter, Petřín hill and Vyšehrad. Prague has the very famous river Vltava, where you can sail on a boat.

If you go to a Czech restaurant for lunch, we recommend that you sample our traditional food -Sirloin in cream with homemade dumplings (Svickova na smetane s domacim knedlikem) and world famous Czech beer (e.g. Pilsner Urquell). Enjoy your meal!

Michael, Pre-Intermediate B and Petra, Intermediate B

  1. Wow! Sounds incredible…I would like to visit Praha, this city has many different and interesting tourist places. It looks very beautiful and a romantic city. Of course, I want to try all your food and beers.

  2. How beautiful!
    I have never been to your county. But my husband was there about 20 years ago. He went to Praha.
    He said he wanted to go the Czech Republic again to see how the country is changing and drink Pilsner Urquel. He loves and can’t forget the taste of the beer. The beer is expensive because of high-quality in Japan.
    I was lucky to meet you and your wife, learn English together, though it was a very short time. I was inspired to continue to study English by your learning approach.
