Another new year


Hello,

First off, my best wishes to everyone at the start of a new decade.

In continuing with my tradition of beginning the New Year abroad, I’ve met up with some old friends in Prague. Photographs, travel tips, cultural nuances and dining experiences to be shared with you soon of course.

I`ve met up with two of my Parisian pals, Alex and Ben, who have taken the opportunity to tour Central Europe – Bratislava and Vienna so far – with their friend Nabil, after I suggested they join us in Prague to celebrate 2010. You can follow their exploits and adventure tales through the online travel community they operate, Hejorama.

I`m in Prague doing some reporting on Canadian-Czech relations for a magazine based here (which has proved extremely difficult with a inconsistent wireless connection at this hostel), and will be taking the opportunity to explore the town and culture a little further, while also relaxing and hopefully practicing my photography.

After a long journey to the Czech Republic via Frankfurt, and a chilly and wild New Year`s celebration, I`m settling into daily life here from a smart and stylish boutique hostel not far from the Old Town. As always, I`ll share the location with you after I`m long gone.

Gone now for more coffee, to meet some folks, get a massage, and enjoy another evening on the town – Czech beer and sushi later.

Ciao!
Daniel C.
