I have arrived in Prague! Woho! It was pretty excruciating getting here but I made it nonetheless, and in excellent shape. I am pretty tired though. The flights were good and I had aisle seats on all three flights [Gerald] so that was nice! When I got to Prague I was pretty stressed about finding the right place and so on but I got really lucky and my taxi driver was awesome! He was talking to me the whole time about where I was from and what there is to do here! And of course we talked about soccer! [Dad, he is a Slava Praha fan so we have to go to one of their games]. My flat is pretty small but its pretty cool. Instead of the normal three roommates I only have two but still pay the same price I would had there been three so thats pretty awesome! The "landlord" is hysterical. His name is Michael and when I arrived he was talking to me for about 30 minutes about how to get places and which buses to take and where to eat, all the essentials. I was the first of my roommates to arrive so I got to pick which bed I wanted and all that. Its gonna get pretty cozy. [Ps. I've included pictures of some of this stuff so not to worry]. The flat is right down the street from the University, like 600 meters Michael said, so that is really nice. I wont have to pay for a bus ticket everyday. Oh, and i forgot to tell you, my flat is on the sixth floor with no lift. I thought I was going to die with all my bags, haha. At least I'll get into pretty good shape! After I unpacked and got settled in I walked around a little bit to see what is around but almost everything was closed, I think because its not in the downtown part! Anyways, I am pretty tired so I am going to go to bed pretty soon
