UKRAINIANS IN PRAGUE – FIRST IMPRESSIONS

The wait was very long … But coming to the Czech capital, and especially visiting the centre of the Old Town, you can not believe that there is such beauty.

Of course, outside the centre, for example in Prague 6, where we live, there is no such beauty, as ordinary streets and shops.

People were pleasantly surprised. In the first days, we didn’t have internet and didn’t find our way around, but we had to get there somehow, so there was only an option to ask passers-by. Few people know English, and we do not know Czech, so we appreciate those moments when we hear familiar words.

Also a very important topic – prices. We must remember that in Europe, prices are higher than prices in our country. For example, a trip of 30 minutes costs 30 crowns, which is about 40 UAH.

And when you still do not know where to go and do not navigate the city, each time you buy an extra ticket, which immediately increases costs.

In general, in a few days in Prague, you start to get used to the people, the calm pace … The beauty of the city, especially the centre – is fascinating.

But, in any case, I miss my home DOM ?
