Exploring Prague

Submitted by Alexa Hosino on the 2014 spring semester study abroad program in London, England…

For the past four days I’ve been traveling throughout Prague.  It is without a doubt, one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever seen.  Words cannot do it justice.  In every direction you look, you’re surrounded by intricate buildings, sunny skies and beyond breathtaking views.  The first night, I had a traditional Czech cuisine of meats, bread and cheese; three of my favorite things.  It was my first experience in a hostel, and it was nothing like some of the scary stories you might hear.  It was actually quite pleasant.  The Prague castle was even more spectacular than I could have imagined.  One of my favorite parts of the trip, however, was when my friends and I decided to go on a Segway tour of the city.  I was skeptical at first, but after 10 minutes, I was loving it; it was such a fun and unique way to not only see the city, but to learn about it as well.
