Hello folk,

thought I'd better introduce myself. I'm a kiwi who has found himself working in Kapan, Armenia. I've got a 2 week break coming up. My buddy and I are going to Prague to start with and then wing it from there. So if anyone wants to catch up and have a reasonably wild time and sink some glorious czech beer, get in touch!

Chris

Thanks for the welcome. Has anyone been to Prague and knows a good place to stay? I know it's a pretty large city...any things I must see? I'm keen to meet people and get on it.

Yeah, I don't think 2 weeks off is long enough, especially after 6 weeks continuous work.

laters.
