As soon as the warmer spring air arrives, I always catch the travel bug. However, having just started a new job, traveling will not be an option for a while yet. So, with nostalgia, I turn to memories and photos from my last trip to London, which I took about a year ago, just after leaving my old job . I've got a bunch of photos for you here, how about that?  Vždycky když přijde teplejší jarní vzduch, dostanu cestovní horečku. Nicméně tentokrát, protože jsem začala nové zaměstnání, musím na cestování ještě nějakou chvíli zapomenout. A tak se s nostalgií obracím k fotkám a vzpomínkám na svůj poslední výlet do Londýna, což bylo asi před rokem, když jsem skončila ve staré práci . Mám pro vás nějaké fotky, co vy na to? It was my third time going on a solo trip to London and the best one yet! It involved a lot of bookshopping, aimless wandering around, also guided walks, seeing long distance friends and culture. Wait. This needs a song. Bylo to potřetí, co jsem se sama v...

Recently I have had a chance to take a couple days off work and actually leave my very lovely but very busy home town. Me and my sister enjoyed a winter mini-break and a much needed change of scenery, visiting a small town in Southern Bohemia, where our grandparents used to live. Here, for your viewing pleasure, is a frosty photo-heavy blog post. Nedávno se mi poštěstilo vzít si na pár dní volno z práce a dokonce opustit moje překrásné, ale hlučné rodné město. Vyrazila jsem se svojí sestrou a užily jsme si zimní prodloužený víkend v městečku v jižních Čechách, kde dřív žili naši prarodiče. Zde, pro potěšení vašich očí, je příspěvek, plný zamrzlých fotografií.  I tried to find balance between time spent outside and resting in the warm cosiness of the apartment where we were staying, and I think it all turned out rather lovely and relaxing. 10 point to Gryffindor/your respective house, if you can recognize where we were:   Snažila jsem se najít rovnováhu mezi tráv...

Major throwback to summer 2014. You know, that time I went to London and never finished my blog posts on the trip. Well, I'm going to London again. Very soon! Turns out, that's what I needed to kick me into finishing all these. Even though it's strange seeing how much of a different person I am now, but I feel like I need to stay to true to the notes I wrote down 2 years ago. I promise that this time around I will be wiser and make a more realistic blog post plan. Back to the lovely day on South Bank . This is an extra music-y blog post about all the lovely buskers along the Thames that made me smile and generally made my life much better that day. It's no secret that music plays and important part in my life and these boys provided a much needed comfort to me, for which I shall be eternally grateful.

So I went on a holiday. A proper week-long, taking time off my work and going abroad kind of holiday. That was a first! Second time on a sea-side family holiday, but the first one was about 14 year ago. I barely remember anything. All in all, exciting stuff! We went to Croatia and stayed in little town called Šimuni on the island of Pag. I thought I would share a couple of my favourite photos, because... some of them turned out quite well I think. And they demonstrate the peaceful atmosphere very well.
