One of Europe’s oldest capitals and most beautiful cities, Prague in the Czech Republic has a long and distinguished history oozing charm, tradition and old world ways. Known as the ‘Golden City’, Prague is on the UNESCO World Heritage list and is one of the most visited cities on the Continent. It is a city in renaissance following the collapse of communist rule, and it’s the combination of modern and traditional that offers couples the opportunity to take a romantic break with a difference.

Situated in the heart of Europe, this city vies with Paris and Rome as one of the continent’s most romantic cities, and is easy to get to from the UK. It is Prague Old Town or Stare Mesto, as it is known, that draws the crowds. The combination of great architecture, narrow cobbled streets and a unique historical atmosphere make it an ideal setting for romance. Originally a walled city the Old Town fortifications were removed and the moat paved over in the 14th Century when Charles IV founded the New Town.

In the heart of the Stare Mesto Square stands the medieval astronomical clock, spectacularly mounted on the south wall of the Old Town Hall. Dating back to 1410 the original clock has been added to and improved over the centuries, and was extensively restored following the German occupation during the Second World War. It is certainly a beautiful sight and well worth a look as you stroll across the Old Town Square hand in hand with your loved one.

As well as the Old Town Square, Prague Castle proves a great draw and just about everyone enjoying short breaks in Prague will see it at some point during their visit. There has been a castle on the site since 870 AD, but today’s baroque-style buildings were constructed in the 18th century under the orders of Empress Maria Theresa. Today, the castle serves as the residence for the president of the Czech Republic, and is impressively illuminated in the evening; take a romantic stroll and have a look.

Indeed, it is walking around Prague that offers most opportunities for developing or rekindling your romance. It is a breathtakingly beautiful city, with something different around every corner. Try strolling over the Charles Bridge at night to get superb views of the Castle and other magnificent views of the city. It will take a very hard heart indeed to not melt at the sight, and be instantly infused with romance.

Czech Republic – Switzerland 2:3 WCH Germany 15.5.2010

The Italian Yamaha rider Valentino Rossi took the victory at the latest Moto GP Grand Prix in the Czech Republic after defeating Ducati rider Casey Stoner despite the Australian’s good performance leading the competition. Toni Elías who is also a Ducati rider arrived in second place after a sensational race.

With this achievement Rossi adds twenty-five extra points to his name and now is fifty points away from the Australian Stoner while there are only six races remaining to finish the championship.

Other two strong rivals are the Spaniards; Jorge Lorenzo (Yamaha) and Dani Pedrosa (Honda) who did not have a very impressive race and finished in tenth and fifteenth position respectively. Unfortunately for Pedrosa he is no more a candidate to win this year’s title. Another unexpected finish was that of Andrea Dovizioso (Honda) who finished in ninth place.

The Czech Grand Prix was considered a new chapter in the fight both riders Stoner and Rossi put up at Laguna Seca a few weeks ago. During the exit in pole position Stoner quickly took advantage over Rossi who led a small group behind him, among them were John Hopkins (Kawasaki) and, after him, Anthony West (Kawasaki), Chris Vermeulen (Suzuki) and Pedrosa.

In the third lap Elías reached the eighth position while Pedrosa began to fade behind to the ninth place and in the following lap Stoner just could not keep up the paste and also felt behind the group situation that favored Rossi was able to lead with a seven second of advantage.

By the fifth lap Pedrosa had already lost enough positions and was in thirteenth place. The peak of the competition was reached only within seconds after when Stoner completely lost control of his motorcycle falling to the ground. Despite his actions to continue racing and setting his motorcycle on track, he became aware that the right part of the handlebars was broken and he had to withdraw. Rossi was then advised by his teammates that Stoner was no longer behind him and he had the track completely for himself.

For the remaining part of the race the rider Toni Elías showed an impressive display of speed reaching the second place and keeping it until the very end of the race; this was without a doubt an unforgettable weekend for the young rider. Meanwhile, Randy de Puniet also faced mechanical problems and finished last.

Currently, the Italian Valentino Rossi leads the Moto GP World Championship with a total of 237 points followed by the defending champion, the Australian racing star Casey Stoner, who is also one of the favorites to win the title. The Spaniard Dani Pedrosa remains third, with 172 points and Jorge Lorenzo is in fourth place with 120 points. Even though the championship is not over yet we can see how the pieces are adjusting as we start to see whom the next world champion may be.

Thus read a headline in a national newspaper earlier this week. These new taxi drivers from the Czech Republic are not only learning English, before they come to the UK, but ‘The Knowledge’ too, the ‘bible’ for taxi drivers. Are the British cabbies at home learning Czech or French or German?

This is one phenomenon of the expanded EU, people moving all around Europe, working and living away from their homelands. The UK’s shortage of skilled workers is acute, we won’t speculate on the reasons – the fact is that many of our skilled workers have gone somewhere else. The EU is becoming more and more inter-national just like that traditional melting pot for all comers from all lands – the USA.

The team at language jobs have known for a while, that this trend of incoming foreign workers would grow and that the demand for multilingual speakers would expand and so it has over the last 30 years. The lines of communication between the UK and EU countries are becoming stronger largely because these new employees can speak at least two languages, English and their own.

Sadly the focus of our schools has largely omitted the teaching of another language, apart from English. If only we learned two languages, as a matter of course as in much of Europe. Furthermore in the US where some Spanish and other language speakers have rebelled and refused to learn American (English), many Americans are now learning second languages. Perhaps our educators should take note!
For many jobs, where the employee is dealing with two or more countries, the issues go deeper than just speaking more than one language – it is the requirement to comprehend and adapt to other business cultures. Communication is vital on more than simply the linguistic level.

Unfortunately there are still so called enlightened business environments in some EU countries, where women working in positions higher than support or back office staff are the exception not the rule. Thankfully in the UK this is not the case and we are more advanced than many of our overseas business partners. We are not racist, sexist or ageist in these islands and there are many opportunities for multilingual speakers. We are open and enthusiastic about talent and are quick to recognize and nurture it. We are a country that has broken down barriers and invited our European cousins to come and work with us.

This position will not be reversed now nor changed and we should be thankful for it and enjoy our opportunities for cultural interaction.

There are many advantages of choosing to complete a medical degree course in the Czech Republic rather than in the United Kingdom, though the big advantage is one of cost. The degree course fees are much less than those of other European states, plus the cost of living is as little as 1 third of that of the UK. Studying for your degree in the Czech Republic has other benefits too, most notably is the fact that Czech universities are known around the world for their high standards of education and excellence.

Reasons for Studying Abroad

For many students who decide to study abroad, it’s seen as an adventure if anything, to go and learn and live in another country, embracing new cultures and meeting new people. For some the reasons are financial and for others, it’s because they were unable to get a place in a UK university with the grades they achieved at A Level and fortunate enough to be given the opportunity to gain a place in the Czech Republic.

Czech Medical Degree Qualifications

Some medical degree students who graduate abroad decide to stay working in those countries after graduation, whilst others decide to return to a medical career in the UK. Czech medical degrees completed at a number of universities are recognised and endorsed by the British General Medical Council and such enable graduates to work in any field of medicine within the UK.

English Medical Degree Courses

One of the biggest advantages particularly to British students who wish to study medicine at degree level in the Czech Republic is that at some universities, medical degrees courses are taught entirely in English. This is a big factor when considering studying in another country, as it’s only necessary to learn a minimum amount of the Czech language to converse with patients whilst on work experience in Czech hospitals.

For those wanting to pursue a career in Britain within medicine who are from other countries, by studying medical degrees in English they can strengthen the English language skills and become qualified with a medical qualification which is recognised by the UK, enabling them to apply for jobs in the fields of medicine, dentistry and the veterinary professions.

Medical Degree Entry Methods

In order to gain a place at Czech universities for medical degree courses, you need to have gained adequate A Level grades in Physics, Chemistry & Biology or another academic subject such as Mathematics. Alternatively it is possible to complete a foundation course at some colleges which is equivalent to the first year of a degree.

Picturesque & Historic Country

The Czech Republic is a picture postcard country located in the heart of Europe with rolling hills and historic cities with some of the most beautiful architecture in the world. Students who decide to study in the Czech Republic can easily visit Berlin and Vienna or take weekend trips to local ski resorts. The country is closer to the UK than Spain, Portugal and Italy and has excellent transport links with mainland Europe.

The Czech Republic is a mix of Austrian and German traditions. Meat therefore has a crucial role in food, whereas vegetables are forgotten. The Czechs do not like cooking which is why they prefer a single meal a day; fatty and full of sauce! After a meal you will have one need: to let the wonderful food digest and to sleep! Fortunately, there is plenty of logement Prague, and there are of course, many hotel Prague line the streets. Czech culinary specialities are defiantly worth visiting Prague for! You will find some great examples of typical dishes at affordable pride.

.

Starters (p?edkrmy)

One of the most famous starters is the ham in Prague (pražská šunka). There is a variety of boiled ham stuffed in whipped cream. The Czechs are not great fans of vegetables but they do love salads, notably Šopský salá; a dish with tomatoes and cucumbers covered with warm cheese. And do not miss the játra na cibulce; goose liver with onions.

.

Soups (polévky)

The national soup (?eská bramborová) is made from a base of carrots, mushrooms and potatoes. It is the typical dish you will find everywhere as the Czechs always appreciate a good soup. Cabbage soup with bacon (zel?a?ka) is also very popular and for the bravest, there’s gut soup (Drstková). Very interesting I must say!

Typicals Czechs dishes (?eská národní jídla)
Generally, Czech food is all about meat (in any shape or form), served in abundance with an accompaniment. Let’s begin with the tradition, goulash. It is an integral part of Czech gastronomy although it has Hungarian origins. Goulash consists of meat (mainly beef), onions, peppers, paprika and potatoes. It is cheap and a particularly fatty dish which will delight big eaters.

Fried dishes are also popular. Almost all of the food here has its own “fried” version; whether it’s some warm cheese coated in breadcrumbs, meats coated in breadcrumbs (especially pork and chicken), fish coated in breadcrumbs and vegetables coated in breadcrumbs (mushrooms, cauliflowers etc.).

Beef is the favourite meat and therefore costs more than others. There are therefore lots of dishes to be savoured!! Amongst all of the beef dishes on offer, it is absolutely necessary to enjoy Sví?ková na smetan? (roasted beef with cream, accompanied by blueberries) and the exotic Špan?lské ptá?ky (beef mixed with bacon, eggs, onions and gherkins).

Although the meat rules in this country, fish has also been a part of Czech gastronomy for years but is generally inedible without having been fried. Carp however is very much appreciated and is generally eaten for Christmas, with grapes and walnuts.

The accompaniments
Side orders are generally not included in the price of your main meal. The 2 traditional accompaniments of Czech food are:

– knedlíky. This dish is composed of meat slices on a base of flour, egg, and bread. This dish is really fatty but it gets eaten with everything.

- bramborák. Pancakes of potatoes flavoured with marjoram.

Desserts (mou?níky)
Czech desserts don’t really have a big place in the meal taking into consideration the enormous main courses. However, you can find some desserts inspired by neighbouring countries, such as Viennese cakes and crêpes filled with fresh fruit and with whipped cream.

If you decide to visit this city, don’t go to one of the many fast food restaurants (which have invaded the city since the fall of communism), and make sure to try something new! And to stay in the centre, there are several cheap offers of accommodation available (location appartement Prague) so make the most of it.
