Before I can mention spring break...

So I realized just how big of a slacker I am because I never mentioned two of the sites I recently visited in the Czech Republic. At the beginning of March I went on an NYU trip to Terezín, a transport camp during WWII. It was really sad to see and we got to hear the story of a man who survived both Terezín and Auschwitz. The next day a few of us decided to go see Kutná Hora, or the Bone Church. This church contains different items constructed entirely of human bone. It was really crazy and pretty creepy. The structures were created by monks from over 40,000 bodies that had been buried in the nearby cemetery during the Plague. Here's a picture so you get an idea of what I'm talking about...

THEN, right before break, Mallory visited! 
Despite having midterms while she was here, we had a lot of fun and I finally had a reason to take the free walking tour in Prague. Who knew I was walking past so many important things every day. I took her to the amazing Hungarian restaurant and we got creeped on at Karlovy Lazny, the five story club. It was so great to see her, but it made me miss New York and being all together at NYU so much more. ALSO, I got to experience Mallory's first ever really drunken experience and it may have been the funniest moment of my life. We went to Chapeau Rouge and she tried absinthe, that can do anyone in. 


More recently, Mike came to visit with two of his friends from Madrid. Once again, I had a midterm, but it was fun and we made truffles! This time it was Lisa who was drunker than ever. Good times. I finally went to Futurum and saw the crazy czechies dancing to American 90s music. 

Well that's all for now! This weekend I'll actually be in Prague so I'll write the overdue spring break post! Also coming up, my recent weekend in Vienna. If you are feeling impatient use the links on the sidebar to see some pictures from all my trips on Picasa. Check back soon!
