In the Czech Republic, most people speak Czech. It's a pretty tricky language, but I've been trying to learn so I can communicate better with locals.
We use Czech Koruna (pronounced like 'crown'). 200 korunas (abbreviated as czk) is equal to about $10.
A bottle of water costs about 20 czk or $1.
This week, I traveled to Prague and had a very delicious open-faced sandwich. It had a special spread on it called labneh. Labneh is a middle eastern food made with yogurt. It kind of tastes like a mixture between cream cheese and sour cream.
I am a huge Swiftie, so I listened to a lot of Taylor Swift this week. But I've also been learning about Czech artists from my students, so I listened to some Czech rappers that they recommended this week.
I really enjoyed my hike this week. Hiking is a great way to see new things, exercise and take time to reflect and think about life.
