As my last week of teaching in the Czech Republic draws to an end, I am finding myself feeling nostalgic about a lot of my favorite spots in Prague. I'm grateful to live in a great neighborhood called Vinohrady, where I have found many of my favorite things in Prague. This neighborhood is fantastic as it's close to the center (just 10 minutes by public transport or 20 by walking) but far enough away that we're not overrun with tourists. I will absolutely miss living here! The pictures truly speak to why I have loved living in Prague for the past 2 years!
On Monday, I start a 3-week trip to Croatia, Bosnia, Austria, England, and Ireland. I'm sure I'll be taking tons of pictures, but may not be able to post much until I return. I'll have 5 more days in Prague before moving to Peru! An exciting month is ahead!

| Home sweet Home - Moravska street |
 |
| Looking the other way |
 |
| My building |
 |
| The park around the corner I walk through at least twice a day and often go to sit and read or soak up some sun |
 |
| The park - and view of the lovely, creepy, baby tower |
 |
| View of Namesti Miru church down Korunni street |
 |
| Park by the metro - I also pass through here at least twice a day |
 |
| The church at Jiřího z Poděbrad |
 |
| Creepy baby tower (ok, actually called the Zizkov TV tower, but I like creepy baby tower better) |
 |
| The babies are so weird, they required several pictures |
 |
| U Sadu - one of my favorite restaurants |
 |
| Cool tulips - my favorite flower |
 |
| Not only an amazing name, but smoke free (rare in Prague) and you name your price! |
 |
| Gorgeous buildings |
 |
| Beautiful Riegrovy Sady park |
 |
| Not bad to catch a glimpse of the castle while running or wandering |
 |
| "the hill" - common hang out spot with amazing views and close proximity to the beer garden |
 |
| View from the hill |
 |
| I call this our neighborhood's backyard |
 |
| This is actually a shopping center |
 |
| Korunni - where I often go to catch a tram |
 |
| Tram stop |
 |
| Namesti Miru church at sunset |
 |
| My favorite fruit and vegetable shop by my house - these shops are literally everywhere in the city and have the best produce selection. This is literally 2 blocks from my house. |
 |
| Great pizza place |
 |
| The BEST coffee in Prague (and conveniently located by the fruit and vegetable shop) |
 |
| Moravska street |
 |
| Metro escalator - it's crazy steep! |
 |
| Home sweet home |
