Things I do living in the Czech Republic 🇨🇿 that I never did living in the USA 🇺🇸
Some of these I never needed to do in the US and others you can’t really do there
And I want is to share my observations of some small differences between the 2 countries
So here they are!
1. Drinking alcohol in public. In the Czech Republic apart from a few specific places you can basically drink anywhere you want. I sometimes go to the park or walk on the streets with an open beer and never have to worry. Whereas in the US there are strict open container laws and it’s often illegal to drink in public areas.
2. Hang dry all my clothes. A lot of homes in the Czech Republic don’t have dryers so you have to hang dry your clothes. I always had a dryer in every place I lived in the US.
3. Pay to use public restrooms. Yes, in many places in the Czech Republic you will have to pay a small fee amount of money to go to the bathroom (usually like $0.5-1). I also have to pay for water in restaurants sometimes. But I never really saw these things before in the USA.
4. Wearing house shoes or slippers whenever I’m inside. Back in the USA I just wore socks, bare feet, or even shoes in the house sometimes. But the Czechs are super concious of always wearing house shoes and it caught on for me 😂. They’ll even occasionally switch to them at work.
5. Fly to other countries for less than $30. In America domestic and international travel is super expensive. But here in Europe I’ve been able to fly to other countries for as little as $16. Gotta love budget airlines ✈️.
What do you think of these? Do you have any more to add?

At many Czech schools students and employees must take off their outdoor shoes and swap for either house shoes or slip ons for school day!
Only the uncivilized people could have restroom and bath in one room.
As an American, it’s my dream to move there one day. My family came to the states from there and I want to see where my ancestral roots began 😊
Alkohol je na veřejnosti nelegální
Česko
Respect from Czechia 🇨🇿
I’m part Czech and I’ve never been there. I’m just wondering do you have your own language?
i liked Czechia, but if your young it can get really boring really fast.
Such a good country to live in
Compared to poland and their nonsense it's quite nice
Has its problems but overall great country

The best thing is not to live in the US now!
As Slovenian perspective its preaty normal here
I'm from Czechia😎
I lived in Czechia years ago. While I was in primary school and middle school. In both of the schools we needed to change to house shoes and if we refused to, we got detention. The weird part was, that teachers could wear whatever they wanted (icluding outdoor shoes)
Pinidu bro subs❤
A tip is order 30 days tram buss card for 550 koruna the 72 hours is 330 koruna
In some restaurants and shops you don't need to pay. But just in some. In every it's diferent
You cannot drink alcohol in public tho, especially not in Prague. But police often wont give you a ticket just warn you
Bro looks like Wolfgang Grimmer
❤❤❤
Kdo je z čr🇨🇿
Not to be shoot 😂😂😂
👇 Who is from Czech Republic 👇
I’m from the Czech but I live in Canada and one of the things I miss is in the Czech you can walk around with know fear
I'm from the US, but i don't wear shoes in my house (unless it's winter and cold af, then I'll wear slippers), and sometimes i hang my clothes to dry when i hand wash them. The bathroom one is just wild to me. Using the restroom should be free. It's a human right. No one should have to pay to go #1 or #2 or whatever.
Of you drink alcohol in here u Will probably look like an homless guy 😆💀
Imagine moving out of Authoritarian States of America to a country that decided overwhelmingly to vote an authoritarian nazi as their new prime minister.
Yeah! Prague have a very good transit
