Buda-Pesh

Buda-Pesh…still feels weird saying it that way, but do as the Hungarians do, right? I remember Kelly Schwartz, who served here in the past with the Canadian Infantry and called it Buda-Pesh. I asked him finally, “why do you say it like that?” His response, “that’s how you properly say it”… I had no clue what to expect from Budapest. Honesty, I dropped it on the itinerary as we were close to it from a destination we wanted to see,...

Prague, Czechia Republic: Petrin Tower

Prague was really cool. My favourite thing there was, probably our Airbnb. It had two levels and had A-C. Me and my sister had a room downstairs, but it was way too hot, so we slept up in my mom and dad’s room that had A-C for all the nights. For some reason, I have the best sleeps on the floor. On the first full day in Prague we looked at all the artwork, this weird clock, and went to...

Prague, Czechia

Prague was great! There was so much stuff to see. It was great. We really only had two full days there. I really liked climbing up a tower. It was pretty high but was a great view.

They were so...

Party City in Prague

Prague was beautiful, similar to Edinburgh, with narrow streets and magnificent monuments. However, it had more color, literally, as the buildings were colorful, and more youthful energy… The city buzzed with young people aged 15-22, who appeared quite young to be there alone or in small groups. While the legal drinking age in Czechia is 18, I guess ID checks are rare. At night, the city became busier, with clubs, casinos, strip clubs, and parties flooding the streets. Prague had...

Berlin: Wannsee Lake (not the naked one)

Berlin was really fun. My favourite part about it was Wannsee Lake. I liked it because I reminded me of Katepwa Lake. It was almost exactly the same as Katepwa. (But the water was warmer) Me and my dad played catch. (I caught crazy ones.) My second favourite thing was buying my gold chain. The gold chain was only 8.99 euro. (Which would be about 16 dollars, Canadian) I wear my chain everywhere. The two things I didn’t like about...
