I always find it difficult to figure out what to do for NYE. I need delicious food, great music to dance to, and lovely company. Combining all 3 can be challenging, so I've done a bit of a research & came up with a few great options for Prague.

I love October, because at this point I usually have had enough of summer, and I'm totally ready to layer up! Walking around the city is now much more enjoyable without the heat & spending more time indoors doesn't come with a guilty conscience.

I'd rather be hibernating, but apparently only bears do that! So here are my other plans...

"Ah, September! You are the doorway to the season that awakens my soul... but I must confess that I love you only because you are a prelude to my beloved October." — Peggy Toney Horton

Usually I would've been quite nervous if travelling wasn't much on my agenda over summer, but this year I quite enjoyed staying put. Having the time to fully explore the city I'm beginning to call 'home'.

Why go to 'VODA': If you're like me - someone who doesn't take sports too seriously, then this is the perfect summer activity for you. It's more of a social gathering, but on water. 

Why go to Pohoda Festival: Because it's probably the only time in the year you'll completely let go of all your worries, judgments and fears.

I've missed Pieštany for what it was back in my care-free days. The town hasn't changed much visually, but the spirit's gone. Young people have left, and with them the strength that was needed to preserve this place...

I've finally moved back to Letna area in Prague, which has brought a lot of magic back into my life. I'm sandwiched in between 2 beautiful parks, so mornings and evenings are very close to perfect. 

It's summer! I'm eating more, I'm drinking more, but luckily I'm moving and laughing more, so that's hopefully burning a few of those extra calories. 

In search for more healthy options in Holesovice, dreaming about an apartment in Karlin and chilling at our favourite outdoor spot by the river.

I personally fell in love with the Forbidden Spot - it's creative, it's rough and it's unique, but what will surprise you even more is what they serve and how they present it.

The month of May has been about discovering more of local music and swapping those horrid shopping malls and branded fashion for more original pieces from vintage stores. Also, a new Cafe has just opened which has an incredible interior worth checking out.

Prague has got some amazing artists & luckily the city's still relatively cheap

What can I say. Panic attacks & anxiety suck. They sneak upon you from nowhere and make your life miserable. However, there are ways to fight back.

Lucia is one of those people who has that gift of instantly making you feel good. Reminding you that life really isn't that bad - that it can be quite exciting. 

No. 8. Location: Knowing, that home is where you speak their language fluently.

The Hipster Trend is still here & quite ALIVE. For some, it's getting old and for others it's still kind of hot. I'm not going to lie - I'm also a fan. I get turned on by the thought of...

These elements are responsible for my happiness, motivation and general sanity in this Urban Jungle.

The City inspires me, motivates me and helps me move forward. That's why I choose the Urban Life. The Search for Freedom - I found mine in the City.

As many of you already know, I always try to attend events whenever I visit or move to a new city. A little gathering called 'COOK & MEET IN PRAGUE' is perfect for those who love to learn more about food, wine and travel. Daniele, organiser of this event, is someone you'll want to carefully listen to once you sit down at the table. He's got some great travel stories up his sleeve and very knowledgeable about GOOD food & drinks. Daniele also organises tours around Italy.

The amazing thing about living in Basel is the fact that you're right next to France & Germany. So if the crazy high Swiss prices create a dent in your wallet, you can opt for the 2 cheaper sides of Europe!

I'm often asked which city would I pick to permanently live in. I never really have a clear answer, because there probably is no such place.

Who doesn't want to get spoilt once in a while? I’d obviously say yes to a Michelin-Star restaurant, but how much do we really know about these stars, other than assuming that we'll be served some delicious food in tiny portions.

Setting up an interview with Prague's cultural activist wasn't the easiest of tasks, but once I met him I understood why. He's the one responsible for the scattered pianos, chess tables and poem jukeboxes around the city. He's also the owner of Cafe Neustadt, Cafe v Lese and many happenings in Prague.
