When in Prague... Get out of Prague

My two months in Prague have been absolutely outstanding. They were transformative and helped me learn a lot about myself and my capabilities as an emerging adult. However, I didn't just stay in Prague! Since the Czech Republic is quite literally in the center of Europe, it was the perfect place to call "home" while I went on casual weekend trips to neighboring counties. The first weekend I went to Germany for a whopping round trip transportation fee of $35 and stayed in a cheap hostel. Another weekend I flew to England and Ireland for $125. My last trip during my stay was to Austria for the same price as Germany. And right now I am writing from Sweden after a $35 plane ticket. Even though Prague was an amazing place to live, I highly suggest traveling around the neighboring countries on long weekends. Some of my classmates went to Hungary, Morocco, Greece, Italy, France and so on and so forth. Here are some pictures in and out of Prague.

Prague - Student Daily Routine

A summer abroad can be kind of intense -- everyday of class consists of at least three hours of instruction or a field trip and taking the language course means another 80 minutes on top of it. However, it is totally worth it! Finding the beauty of the place you are calling home for the next 1-3 months is a very eye opening experience that I will never forget. Anyway, here is a video I made of my daily routine during school days. Hope you enjoy!
