Strange Old Prague
Looking for some unusual attractions in Prague, Czech Republic? Look no further.
In this episode, we talk to local expert and freelance journalist Mark Pickering.
Mark moved to Prague 14 years ago to teach English and eat his body weight in fried cheese. When he's not babbling excitedly to students about literature, he writes travel and lifestyle articles for the likes of The Guardian and VICE, delving into the dark crevices of Czech Republic and its wonderful sub-cultures.
In this episode you’ll find out…
- When two men urinating in public has nothing to do with a stag party
- Why ‘pickled cheese’ is a lot tastier than it sounds
- What to say (or not to say) when going to the toilet
…and so much more.
You’ll find all Mark’s picks on the podcast website: www.strangeoldworld.com
