As promised when I was gushing over some London photos from last year, I am back to gush over some photos from Liverpool. Hope you enjoy them :)  Jak jsem slíbila, když jsem se tu rozplývala nad loňskými fotkami z Londýna , jsem tu abych se rozplývala nad fotkami z Liverpoolu. Snad se vám budou líbit :)  It was all very important for me, arranging and managing the journey up north. It was the first time I left London, actually. Moreover, what with me being a Beatlemaniak ever since I was a little girl, visiting Liverpool was very special <3  Všechno to pro mně bylo hodně důležité, zařídit a zvládnout cestu na sever. Bylo to vlastně poprvé, co jsem opustila Londýn. Navíc, jelikož jsem od malička Beatlemaniak, navštívit Liverpool bylo prostě něco výjimečného.

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...

So, it's Novemeber. One is slowly grasping the fact that Christmas is inevitably getting closer and as the air grows cold, I end up remembering last year and a very spontaneuous trip to Nuremberg in Germany. Here's a little Throwback Sunday. The premise of the trip was simple: me doing a course to be a tourist guide + my sister being a teacher overseeing a school trip to Nuremberg and having a free spot on the bus. I thought it would be fun to spy on the guide who would be taking care of us and comparing if they are doing all the necessary things we were being taught at the course :) I will try to keep this short and picture friendly.

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.
