Prague had really turned on the welcome party since I arrived. Beautiful weather and to die for experiences all wrapped up in years of history. So before I booked the next train out of town I had to get up and see the jewel in the crown of Prague so to speak, Prague Castle. I had been dieing to get here ever since I saw it on my tour, but […]

Kutna Hora and the Bone Chapel
I love party hostels… when I want to party. In Prague I wanted to explore and save the hangover for another country.

Arriving at Auschwitz there is no wandering around on your own, you need […]

I rolled around my bed for what I thought was hours (actually 15min) trying to decide if I should get up, stay in bed, get up, empty my stomach contents or just plain old die. Eventually dragging my sorry excuse for a body out of bed I prepared for a stroll into town hoping […]
