Czech Republic

  • It's a historical place . Walk on the Chrales bridge was simply awesome.
  • People here are very helping, but their English skills are very poor.
  • It's all numbers game at the food. I eat 7 for break fast, 3 0r 7 or 8 for Lunch and 101 or 104 for dinner. In chinese restarent, We have to decide the item by looking at the photo of the item on the wall. You are lucky ,if you get what you would like to eat.
  • Weather is pretty good . Avearage temparature is around 4-5 Centrigrade and no snow.( It was around -20 C ,same season last year and it's warmest year in the last 150 years. Some Intelligent people call it as global warming effect and their dumb counterparts blame it on my leg)
  • Women are pretty and men are sexy (Bald men are sexy, you know!!!!)
  • Call to India from my hotel is damn expensive (Around Rs 210 per minute) and the best way to call to India is call your friend in U.S and ask him to connect to India number. This way it's costs only Rs.5 per minute including India and Czech calls.
  • Drinking habits of these guys are beyond my imagination. well, some of them booze every day and others three times a day.
  • It's easy to get Coke and Beer than water.
  • When I asked for Tea, they served me hot water and when I asked for Water ,they gave me Soda. If you want Water which you drink in India, you have to ask for water with no gas.
  • If you look at the size of the dogs, You agree with me that major chunk of Czech Economy is wasted on feeding the dogs.
  • The only channel I can watch here is CNN and it's Iraq crap.
  • Quality of Bread you get here is excellent (Especially in Italian Restaurents)
  • Most women's name is Lenka and Most of men's name is Petr
  • I didn't see any desi so far here . The only incident I heard of desis was Abhishek and Aishwarya were here on Christmas weekend.
  • Indian Restarent is damn expensive. Idli and Samabar costs around Rs 2,400.
  • Food is ok, you can have good Lunch / Dinner for 200-300 Rs.

Mr. Fate

It was only twenty days in this new year ,but Mr. Fate was busy and took me to the extremes of joy and sarrow.

To start with ,It was a great new year party with my old roomies back in the room. Though some of them were missed , the party was great . I met some of my cousins ,who won't be there when I return back from Czech Republic. On the second day of the new year, spent some time with Srujan and did shopping and in the early hours of third, I flew to Czech Republic.

On 5th ,one of my uncle got accident and two days after ,my grand mother passed away and It was tough to digest these things. Busy schedule at work didn't let me think about that but the nights back in the hotel room were tough. Mr. fate was at his cruel best this week.

The following week, I got my exam results and I passed with the score of 304 /330 and that puts me among the first 130 members from India to get this certification (probalby, first 2000 members across the globe). More importantly, our V.P. agreed to pay my exam amount back. Mr.fate was completely in good mood entire this week.

More about Czech Republic follows in the next post .

I'm a blogger.... Need I say more?

When I started blogging eight months ago, I never really thought, I would reach this far ,but now with 50 posts , 4,000 site views ,500 profiel views, readers from almost all the continents, I feel good . Considering the fact that none of my friends blog ( well, couple of them do, but once in a blue moon) , this is nothing less than remarkable.

I would like to thank you all, for being with me throught this journey ,What this blog seriously lacking is constructive criticism. I know there is lot of room for improvement and you feedback will really help me in making My perspective a better blog.

This is a different world, I always say to my self, when I think of blogging. You get to know, different views, different emotions, different expressions, lot of humor, lot of information and it's learning in more ways than one. I enjoyed being a blogger. I enjoyed thoroughly.

On a different note, I reached Prague ( Czech Republic) safely and got settled down in Hotel Lev, getting used to food . Hopefully, you can expect some posts on Czech roads, travel, food, weather and pretty women.

Happy new year folks.
