Did you know that while the official language of the Czech republic is Czech, there is an area where you may hear a langugae completely different from most czech dialects. Welcome to the city of "hantec", a weird unique slang language inspired by Czech, German and Jiddish. And also, welcome to the Czech second most populous city and a metropolis of Moravia, the eastern half of the Republic. Long live Brno.

Sofia - TOP 5 Tourist Attractions

Hello, citizens of Earth :)
My apologies for not posting for such a long time, but it was a really busy month. I am back now and bring you the newest report from the Balcans.
Imagine you were a king a country and get exiled when a communist revolution takes place. You wait years and years abroad and when liberty finally returns to your country, you return home only to find a newly formed republic that doesn't have a place for its former king. What do you do?
