Hotel Value for Frequent Guests
Prague seems like a place where there are 3 or 4 pubs on every block of nearly every street. Any list that claims to reveal the 10 best pubs in Prague is bullshit. A tourist is looking for a cool place to hang out and drink and maybe get a bite to eat. This post…

Eight days in Krakow, Poland and a couple days in Oswiecim, Poland on our trip to Auschwitz meant we ate about 15 meals in restaurants. Lots of travel blogs about Poland will suggest you eat pierogi, potato pancakes and dine at a bar mleczny – a Polish ‘milk bar’. None of those fit our personal dietary menu…
