Prague, 1st April 2009

In the last week the CS Prague Community lost two of its most joyfull members. Daniel first, then Emre. Two dear friends who I will keep in my heart forever. Since the very beggining I new that social connections in this dynamic society would be always precarious. But this was just a bit of distant theory. When reality knocks in your door, it's a different story. Painfull. Right now I'm feeling like a lost a part of me in this city. Prague will never be the same without these two companions of so many moments of joy. I will always remember Daniel, hiking side by side with me, exploring lost ruins and remote trails. And Emre, playing frisbee or frenetically huging tourists on the old town square.

I feel sad, even knowing that sooner of later I will have the privilege of huging these two fellows again, in Prague or somewhere else. And that's a fact, even if for that I will have to cross oceans and continents. Farewell Daniel, farewell Emre, I hope both of you find what you are looking for... forgive me for beeing selfish, wishing that you never left.

After four full months, I left Prague for a while. I will be back in late September though. Today, it was with a couple of tears rolling over my face that I sat for a long time close to the airport doors, breathing with joy the last air of Prague I could had for the last four months. It's gonna be hard to stay away from this city, now oficially the love of my life. As soon as I approached the boarding gate and start hearing portuguese I felt in advance the torture which awaits me for the forthcoming months. I hope I can stand this probation and return sane.

Gathering in Portugal

In my last days in Portugal, this Summer, I had the honour of host a small group of my closest friends in Prague. You can read the whole story as well as watch the pictures.
