A few exciting things coming up! This coming weekend we have free so a bunch of the girls I am friends with and I are going to a music festival in Czech Republic to see....Gogol Bordello!!! If you're not familar with them, it's a shame. Think indie gyspy punk rock with accordion music.
And also one of my favorite artists Jan Svankmajer? Lives a few blocks over from my dorm! Get out of here!!! And he has a gallery? Ahhhhhhh
Anyway- we went to Moravia this past weekend. It was really fun in Brno, a lot more laid back than Prague, but I missed my Praha :) We saw tons and tons of churches and cathedrals and I got to try Czech beer (Starobrno) which was very good. We also went wine tasting and went to some caves located under the city. The most interesting part for me was when we went to some local villages that were homes to people until Nazis invaded in WWII but some of the houses were still intact, including bedding, wall decorations, and furniture.
wow Christine, sounds like an amazing time! especially the rose and a shot of pineapple juice and vodka on the way out of the restaurant, haha. and the pictures are fantastic.
