About Me

ABOUT ME

Young, socialable, spontaneous couple, currently living in Prague. Jan is a professional photographer and an editor of a photo magazin, Michelle teaches English. We both love to put our rollerskates on and go along the river heading to one of Prague´s nice sites for some relaxation, beer or coffee. We love having poeple round for some good food, wine and conversation.

PHILOSOPHY

Michelle: This in fact is Paolo Coehlo´s citation but sounds like one I would make:-)
When you want something, the whole Universe conspires to help you to realise your desire.

Jan: Compare yourself with the best.

Jan: It's rather question for a night-long chat. Will list my favourite stuff later. Just for the beginning - you can't go wrong with any film directed by Milos Forman, music form original Woodstock or Jamaica or a book by Richard Brautigan.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One day in the beautiful Czech countryside we experienced baby deer grazing just a couple of metres from us. What a breathtaking sight!

Fantastic storm in Italy, complete silence but the sky was lit up over the sea.
