So per usual, summer hits and my blog goes dormant and then once I move to somewhere foreign- suprise suprise, active blog! So here we go bloggin in Czech! I am officially all settled in our quaint apartment here in breathtaking Karlovy Vary, Czech Republic! Well almost all settled....
- still no internet (presently residing a second home in a cafe just 2 minutes away from our apartment)
- no known address (we have an address of course, but communication with our incredibly sweet 70 year old something landlord is excrutiating-ly painful...).
- a standard car that I am able to drive so I walk....everywhere
But essentially settled in.
Karlovy feels like a little gem tucked away in a valley that is blanketed by greenery. People have yet to discover this little city's magic just an hour and a bit away from Prague! Me and Dust are living at the top of a "hill" that overlooks all of the beautifully aged downtown. Just a 5 minute walk and we are in a colourful downtown. There is a tiny canal that runs through the center of downtown, framing it are all the thermal springs that people can taste- however I would advice otherwise....
Karlovy Vary is actually the "boiling city" so it is known for all of its hot springs and thermal treatments. There is a LARGE array of different treatments you can receive here- mud wraps, seaweed wraps, thai massages, coconut aroma therapy...and other obscure ones I have never heard of! Long story short- the town is very relaxing along with the people and although the English is sparse, the people are incredibly kind.
We are off to Munich tomorrow- another plus about living here is we are very central to lots of other countries! And then back on Sunday night. My girl friend is visiting on Monday so I will attempt another blog amidst our journeys!!
Just a little update- but my "wifi" is almost up! Update soon!
