Apartment Seeking Tour

The next day I tried the vernacular, instead of the stairs, and it was only about 50¢ and was much faster than hiking the stairs. And offered excellent views of the city [1] [2] .

Wandering around on my own I stopped at the old town square to rest for a moment. There was a girl looking for something on a large map so I offered her my small map, but she declined. As I was trying to think of something else to say, because I really wanted to keep talking to her, she began.

Michaela was from, Pilzn (1 hour by bus from Prague), but was looking for a place to live in Prague for school. She took me to the Prague castle [city from the castle] as she was placing phone calls for vacant apartments. I also went with her to the outskirts of the city where we found the plain white, prefab, 10-in-a-row, communistic buildings which she, nor I , would ever want to live in.

We hung out a few more times to drink so me tea and catch-up as she continued looking for apartments in Prague.

Later I met up with Mihau and Ola and we saw Frank Gehry's [Ginger & Fred] , built on the site where an American bomb had acidentally fallen in Prague, on our way to get some lunch.

Wanna comment?
