... with him and Mira helped me with this. Mira takes the opportunity to fly back to Holland for a suprise visit to a friend! Funny Crazy!
Over the weekend the car cannot be fixed so trying to relax and spend quality time with myself, Roman and his girlfriend Martina. Visiting country pub, going to nature for long walk and spring water and participating in a drumming session, finally touching my Djembe again! Finally feel grounded again,I am here and now ...

Jelenia Góra ('deer mountain') is about couple of hours south from Wroclaw (trains or buses). It is close to the Karkonosze mountain range running along the Polish-Czech border. Only 10-15 km of the town there are few ski resorts such as Karpacz, Szklarska Poreba.
Nice, colorful Market Square, Cyprian Kamil Norwid Theatre, Saint Cross Church, the Old Town are just few places worth of seeing.

... br>Its obviously a bit poorer in these former eastern block countries so you do get to see Europe from a completely different perspective, there was lots of heavy industry mixed in with the countryside, but generally it seems like a country trying to improve the best way it can. Its always a bit nervy crossing into a new country seeing if you are safe enough to free camp, but we did find a spot next to a lake on the first night and felt pretty safe.

As ...

al the former eastern bloc countries make for good travel,, but the one that i return to is the czech republic,, mainly to the north [north bohemia],liberec,harrochov,cesky raj, but a trip or two to moravia is also worth taking,,. during the communist times it was an eye opener, now also as the people wish for the return of those times,they knew where their bread was coming from, and the upgrades fron old skoda to super fast motorcars,, ah they stilll are crazy on the roads

... takze sme vybrali nase jesenne vertovky, ktore s nami precestovali pol sveta za posledny tyzden a mohli sme objavovat mesto pred nami. Liberec ma krasny architekturu z cias ked to bolo druhe najvyznamnejsie mesto v Cechach. Jeho odevnicky a tkacsky priemysel je preslaveny v celom byvalom Ceskoslovensku.

... buying from him. Finally owning my own Djembe and bass-drum, YIPPIE!!! And also taking my bicycle with me, only 35 euro to take on board! Always good to have my own transportation there! I am soooo looking forward to go there! Not that I wanna leave Czech, it is a great country to, getting into the language and habbits here! But there is the sun (31 degrees) waiting for us... Before leaving the country we want to visit his father as well, so we have jus ...

... stopem na dwie raty do Szklarskiej Poreby. Nareszcie w domu! No, prawie. Potem juz polskim PKSem do Jeleniej Gory - a stamtad juz prosta droga do domu - Wroclawia i Opola. Chcielismy spedzic noc we wlasnych lozkach, dlatego ostatni odcinek przejechalismy platnym trasportem. Ahh znowu pokonalismy tysiace kilometrow, w wiekszosci na stopa! Dokonalismy niemozliwego (autostop w Grecji), spotkalismy indywidulistow, ktorzy ...

... were suddenly surrounded by thousands of people just wandering and eating. Upon discovering the entry price to the castle we decided to turn back and go for a short walk through the nearby forest. In the end, this worked out well, as it was a lot more tranquil and we even discovered a viewing point of the fine castle, which Hitler once planned to use as a shelter. We arrived back in Opole soon after 7pm, capping off a great weekend. We certainly made the most of our time, doing a bit ...

I can't deny that it's amazing to get lost in the streets of Prague but I'm proud of New Hampshire... I have to admit that I've missed the fall foliage especially. So, when my newfound friend Lukas invited me to his hometown of Liberec for the weekend I gladly accepted. Liberec is about an hour north of Prague, resting below the boarder where Germany and Poland meet. The plan was to catch a bus and spend the weekend at a birthday bash for a couple of Lukas' friends. I was ...
