Journey to Hradec Kralove & Prague

Since friday evening I'm back in Belgium.
I wished I could stay in the Czech Republic for a longer time. I had a very nice time there with my boyfriend and his friend(s) there. Frodo, if you read this I hope you can see I wrote I with a capital... especially for you... still don't like it very much though.

Travelling from Hradec to Prague takes quite a long time - about 2 hours - so my boyfriend and me decided to stay in Prague for a couple of days to have some time for ourselves.
We had a great time! These are some photos of Hradec Kralove and Prague.
I hope you'll like them!

Sidonie's Chad Wallet

When you have a 'large ad' on my blog. It's free to share one of your products with the world.
Sidonie Yang from Sidonie Yang | Handmade, would love to tell you more about the 'Chad' wallet!

This is my washable kraft paper men's wallet... it doesn't have a name, but I might it, "Chad" (I'll tell you why in just a bit).

I use, as with all my other creations, washable kraft paper to make it. I've come to realize that men are always on the quest to find a thin, yet sturdy wallet. In addition, my wallet is also made of a material that is luxurious in how it feels and looks, and exotic in what it's made from. The four men in the entire world who use my wallet so far... have pretty unique wallets!

The inspiration for my wallet is the person whom I have named it after - Chad! Chad is my husband's cousin. For Christmas, I gave him a keychain made of washable kraft paper, and he later asked me if I could make him a wallet out of the same material. I did, and it turned out really nicely... so I decided to also sell it on Etsy.

Men (or even women) can use my wallet, although it's usually men that prefer the size and look/feel.

 

 

My wallet costs $47 USD, and is available at my Etsy store: http://www.etsy.com/listing/89408018/mens-wallet-made-from-washable-kraft

My first journey to Hradec Kralove

You've probably read on this blog before (and if you haven't you will now) that my boyfriend stays in the Czech Republic for 3 months for his studies.

As I'm a student in tourism i couldn't let this chance go. I bought my tickets to fly there and stay with my love in the vacations. He's living in the city Hradec Kralové, close to Prague.
This afternoon I'm leaving Belgium. I've never been to the Czech Republic, so i'm very curious. We've planned many things to do together and i'm so looking forward to it! First i want to explore Hradec and after that i want to visit Prague. In the Eastern vacation we've planned to go to Auschwitz in Poland. There's a good connection between Poland and Prague with the train. I'll tell you more about that later, when that vacation is coming closer. Now i want to show you some lovely photos from Hradec Kralové.
