The last couple of days in Budapest were a lot better. Gave up going out to see the sights and stayed in the hostel most of the time, occasionally going out, most notably on the Saturday to a boat party. … Continue reading
It was valentines day the other day. This time last year, or a bit earlier, I was commissioned by an appalling magazine in Prague to write an article about it, including interviews with locals and expats. Now I didn’t have … Continue reading
The last night in Prague was better than any. After the fascinating activity of sitting in a tattoo & piercing shop waiting for Miriam, Amanda & Heidi to have holes put through their bodies and extravagant dye put in their … Continue reading
Sunday wasn’t too shabby. Ate some food with friends and then went off to visit my most recent ex. We took ten minutes or so trying to find somewhere to get a drink. Don’t think it could have gone better … Continue reading

After one last, fantastic night at the Blind Eye, all that was left was to take a few hours kip and get my bags. It was a public holiday in the Czech Republic yesterday, so I got to say goodbye … Continue reading
This will be my last entry in Prague. Hard to believe, I know. Anyway, the weekend was pretty good. Started off Friday night, with Jan’s flying visit, which meant that I stayed up until 4 drinking borovicka, got three hours … Continue reading
