Welcome to my Prague Blog!

Welcome to “The Prague Blog.”  In its pages I’d like to introduce you to one of the most beautiful cities in the world.  Though of course I might be biased, if you’ve ever visited Prague, you’ll know that my opinion is not completely without some (or a lot of) objective basis and merit.  And if you’ve not yet been to Prague, I hope you’ll have the chance to visit one day and  be struck by the city’s beauty, as I was the first time I visited here more than two decades ago. 

Prague’s attraction doesn’t stem solely from its beauty.  It has a mystery that can be felt as you wander through its winding medieval streets.  And the rich history of Prague is another thing that surprises many first-time visitors.  From the Old Town to the Malá Strana to the Jewish Quarter, history seems to leap from every cobblestone you tread upon.

I’m an American who has lived and worked in Prague for more than two decades.  Prague’s pull on me was so strong that after my first stay for a holiday in the summer of 1990, the first summer after the Berlin Wall fell, I vowed to return – to live.  And I did.  It took some time and some doing, but I moved here in 1992 and never left (except for a few years in the late 1990s when I relocated to Washington, DC, during my tenure at the World Bank).  I have lived, loved and experienced Prague on many levels and in its many aspects.  I’ve walked her streets over and over, never tiring of seeing the same gorgeous Baroque palace multiple times or marveling at the views as I cross the 700-year-old Gothic Charles Bridge for the umpteenth time.  I’ve studied Prague’s history, met her people and heard their stories and their music. 

Follow me here to learn more about this amazing city than most guidebooks would be able to tell you.  I’ll cover everything from the practical to the historical to the fun.  And I’ll fill you in on culture, food and other tidbits about life here so that you’ll have a better feel for this place when you arrive for your visit.  And if you don’t yet have plans for a trip to Prague, perhaps I can entice you.

Enjoy!

    I am an American who has been living in Prague for two decades. After a long career in international finance, I left the business world to pursue other interests. I now work as a writer, mentor and guide to the city.
