Green Bills

Thursday, August 9th, 2007

  I do respect Greenpeace and I consider it as one of the rare non-governmental organizations that make me feel that there’s still a hope to save the planet. But when those beautiful girls come to ask you 7 times per week about your bank account number to donate to the organization, I start to […]

A 24-hour (or more) insomnia

Tuesday, April 17th, 2007

Woke up on Saturday at 8, I slept 3 hours and was not really sober.
Last time shopping: Spent 2000 czk.
Took the train from Brno at 0:28 to Prague, Still awake from 8.

Arrived to Prague at 3:28, Walked from Hlavní Nádraži till Holešovice on feet, carrying 27 kg; an unknown (let’s say friend) Romanian helped me […]

My dear compatriots here

Saturday, April 7th, 2007

While waiting for the tram today at 5:30 AM in Česká station, I was surprised to hear some talk in Tunisian accent, there are no many Tunisians in Brno, but I would have preferred not to meet those three guys, totally drunk, dirty dresses, talking loudly and laughing, singing and bothering people who were […]

Activism in Czech Republic 2: Communists are back?

Saturday, March 31st, 2007

I am following the demonstrations held in Czech Republic and especially in Brno regarding the protestation against the American missile base in Czech Republic, I think the best event was Prague’s one on March 17th.
After that, there was a small demonstration in Brno in the main square (Náměstí Svobody) but it was not that […]

Things I did not like in Prague

Wednesday, March 21st, 2007

Prices are so high, dishes prices consist of 3 digits each one, you are lucky if you find some salad for 150 CZK

Unlike in Brno, where tram tickets are sold in tobacco shops, 3 day tickets are only sold in information centers in big metro stations, which are closed on Saturday. The automates have 24 […]

Prague au cœur

Wednesday, March 21st, 2007

Living in Czech Republic without having time to visit Prague as a tourist is just like closing the window, turning light on while sun is shining outside!

Saturday I started to find out about a luxurious and magnificent city, my objective was to challenge Japanese tourists and to shot more than 1000 pictures, it was […]

Once I asked Ventil why they chose those ugly persons to hold the […]

Getting started with Czech cuisine: smažený sýr — Fried cheese

Saturday, February 3rd, 2007

Who could ever think that I would talk about gastronomy?
Yes, things changed, and I found out that I have some cooking skills. My life is actually so quiet, sometimes boring, that cooking became one of my most interesting activities. It started when I roasted beef, and added some Tunisian-Italian-French condiments (let’s say Mediterranean), and […]

Dear Madam the minister,
Please do not forget your slave origins.
Thy got their freedom.
Let freedom and […]
