VEGANUARY & YOUTUBE CHANNEL

Dear friends, it’s January, which means that many people are trying to eat vegan this month as a part of a challenge called Veganuary. My friend and I have created a YouTube Channel where we publish a video about veganism every single day for the entire month of January. The channel is overall also focused…

WHEN IN DOUBT

Dear friends, I have been working on a book for a couple of months now. It’s not the first novel I’ve written. It’s hopefully not the last one. But is it the one that will finally get published? I have no idea. This post is a hopeless act of improvisation during the painful period of…

HOMELESS

Imagine. You are far away from home, miles and miles keep you apart. Sometimes you get very homesick. You miss your mum’s scent in the air, you miss the places that used to be your safe spots hidden from the rest of the world, you miss the people you were surrounded by, you miss the…

LOCH LOMOND|EXPLORING UK

I’m finally in Glasgow, Scotland. And given the close distance between The Trossachs National Park and my new home city, there’s possibly no better first trip than exploring the beautiful landscapes of this country. Last weekend, Veronika and I therefore visited the national park mentioned above and we saw the biggest lake of Scotland, Loch…

ON (VEGAN) RADICALISM

We sometimes get so excited about something that we stop realising what we’re doing. We sometimes find an issue so important to us that we forget how we’re representing it. We forget to actually be the thing we want to represent; and by that, we kill it instead of spreading it. What I want to…

JUNE|CZECH DIARIES

These are my last Czech diaries since this was the last month I spent in the Czech Republic. I am already writing this post in Glasgow, Scotland. June has been a great month full of reading books, relaxing after exams, saying goodbye to everyone, moving to the UK and being endlessly happy because my dream…

Dear Most

Dear Town, it’s time to say farewell. Adieu. Sbohem. Dear M, it’s time for us to part. Our relationship was never perfect. Was never meant to be. Dear O, it’s time we break up. And never come back together. Except for an occasional visit. Dear S, I have hated you for most of my life….

10 THINGS I LOVE ABOUT THE CZECH REPUBLIC (MY COUNTRY)

Since I’m moving to Britain in a week, I thought it’d be great to write down some things I love about my home country. The truth is, I’ve never felt as I’ve belonged here; and I’ve always dreamed about going away. I’ve never actually wanted to stay here, even as a child. But I believe…

MY TOP FRENCH SONGS|LEARN WITH ME

I remember that I’ve learnt a lot of French while listening to French songs and translating them so that I could know what they were about. And even nowadays I listen to them quite often, since I believe that it’s one of the most useful ways to learn a language – alongside with watching TV…

APRIL&MAY|CZECH DIARIES

Dear friends, I have been gone for a while. Winter has turned into hot summer (without even ten days of spring, which is quite alarming if you ask me) and my days were all about stressing over final exams. Now it’s finally over. I’ve passed Cambridge English: Advanced and yesterday I also passed my last…

WHY THE NEW DISNEY PRINCESSES ARE THE BEST

They are everywhere. On the internet, in shops, on posters, on the radio. New Disney princesses. By this, I mean: Frozen, Tangled, Moana and Brave. Frozen is of course the most mainstream one. Maybe that is why I haven’t really liked it for such a long time. However, recently I’ve seen all the movies in…

MARCH|CZECH DIARIES

Dear friends, it’s the end of March, which means that the horrible winter should be finally over. Today we had a beautiful sunny day, however, it snowed two days ago, so I suppose spring is not yet to bless us with its presence. Even though the snow is already gone, so… maybe the weather will…
