Prague
We left the sleepy town of Olomouc for the grand city of Prague. Iconic Gothic towers and street side cafes lurk around every corner of this gorgeous Czech capital. Prague castle is a city in itself and houses the most impressive cathedral we have seen in Europe so far. As we travel through this region we are learning so much about 20th Century European history. It feels even more special to be here as Eastern Europe celebrates the 20th anniversary of the fall of Communism.
Watch how you go...

After an incredible trip to Patagonia in 2006 our desire to see the rest of the world was ignited. It wasn't until this time that we realized "gap years" and round the world trips existed. We couldn't think of a better reason to take the plunge and drop everything than to mark our 30th birthdays. So here we go...8 months, 16 countries, and a lifetime of experiences and memories.
