Letna Park
Letna Park is marvelous. It’s high up and overlooks the city center. Most of the people hang out at the beer garden…. what else, what else… it’s just chill and kind of the daily place to hang out.
April 7th in Prague
Wandered around Old Town, satiated my hunger with another plate of bulgar risotto from Lehká Hlava, enjoyed the sunshine in Letna Park, attended an art opening, walked along the water (kinda) and then winded down the evening with a classical music concert and some pasta (both treated to me by my roommate as a thanks [...]
Blind Eye on Sunday
Sooo I showed up to Blind Eye around 9:30pm on Sunday night and the bartender didn’t know anything about a DJ coming, but I explained to him my deal. Later on the owner was there for a second so it was all good. I managed to get three couchsurfers + three of their friends to [...]
Persian Picnic in Prague
So over the past couple of weeks I had been messaging this couchsurfer Djali, who is 1/4 Persian and 3/4 Czech, about getting together and cooking some Persian food. Since the weather started to get nice we decided on a picnic. So we had the picnic on Saturday! It was a success. I cooked the [...]
Prague Walks, Tea, Hookah & Wine

Prague: Film Fest & Public Transporation
I have been in Prague for over a week now and haven’t seen much of the city, because I have been going to Village Cinemas almost everyday for the Febio Fest. It’s ending on Friday but I’m not going to the cinemas anymore! I’ve had enough. The movies I ended up seeing and my ratings [...]
Gnocchi with Spinach, Tomato & Moz
I had a bunch of left over spinach, so I made this! Very easy to make. First chop up one small onion and cook in some olive oil in a large pan until translucent. Then add like 4-6 cloves of garlic (that are smashed). Take 4 smallish tomatoes and smash with hands, add to pan. [...]
