Daily news and comments made by a journalist newspaper editor and translator, currently living in Brno, the Czech Republic, who once had a blog named The Daily Czech even though he lived in Slovakia back then. Sounds confusing? So are the latest Czech issues to many foreigners. This blog will try to explain some… Feel free to comment and ask about everything. Usual blog disclaimers apply. However its author is doing his best to follow print journalism rules, too.

Cau Petre,
I like the site and your commentary. Its nice to see a Czech with very good English write on local issues. Its also nice to see its lack of any affiliation with expats.cz nor the rantings of the madman Kal Korff. I look forward to reading more, and hats off on your exceptional English. Je to skoda ze nejste v praze…:}

Ahoj Petre,
Have a look at http://www.slovodne.cz
It’s funny and informative and you may like it. If you like it a lot, you may even put up a link…
Keep up the good work. I’ve bookmarked your site.

Hi Petr,
I’m an English teacher living in Brno. I stumbled onto your site and I really enjoy it. Keep it up. And where did you get that fantastic panalaky panorama on the top of the page? Really, I’d love to know. It looks like it could be Brno…?
Ahoj,
I found your blog during a phase of writers block. Great Blog! I am an American who has tried studying Czech language off and on. I am very interested in the Czech culture and current events.
Hi Joe, yes, the panelak buildings are indeed Brno. The Vinohrady suburb, taken from the eastern walls of Spilberk.
To “michiganredneck”: Hey, any questions you might have, in the most recent comments, and I will try to reply via email ASAP.
Ahoj, Petře,
I just discovered you’ve revived the blog after the old one disappeared. Too bad you moved to Brno before I was in Bratislava; I would’ve loved to buy you a beer sometime.
Ahoj Petre,
I sent you an email about interviewing you for Global Voices, I’m not sure if you got it?
Cheers,
Elia
Hi Elia, I just replied to your e-mail.
Thanks a lot!
