Czech Yourself

Call me crazy, but there's something amazingly cool about former communist countries. Whether it's the sense of burgeoning capitalism, the birth of democracy, or just the influx of western culture - it's awesome. The Czech Republic is a majestic place and one country that should be on everyone's "to do" list when they visit Europe. Prague in particular is amazingly cool and embodies old and new like nothing I've ever seen before.

The city of Prague is situated on the Vltava river in central Bohemia and is considered to be one of the most beautiful cities in the world. The architecture, the buildings, the vibe, the nightlife, and the culture are all top notch.

The design scene in the Czech Republic is incredible too. Any kind of blossoming economy is bound to create tremendous opportunities for the creative industry. The talent is vast in the country and it's always exciting to see what others are doing abroad. One firm I found to be incredibly prominent is: Toman Graphic Design. Their work is top notch and I fell in love with the site. Definitely inspiring.
