PRAHA

My Prague memoirs from October 2007

The city of Kafka
I was in Prague for one week in 1.-8.10.2007.
What can I say that hasn't been already said about Prague?

Like everybody I can say:

I loved it!
Prague is so beautiful!
I hope to be back one day!

For me Prague always was a mystic place that I wanted to visit mainly because of books of Franz Kafka and Milan Kundera. The feeling of the books is still on the streets of Prague. Kafka still lives there, like in 2005 I discovered that Mozart still lives in Vienna.

My Destination (transl. Alex Flores)

"I called for my horse to be brought from the stable. The servant did not

understand me. I myself went into the stable, saddled my horse and mounted.

In the distance I heard a trumpet blast. I asked him what it meant but he

did not know and had not heard it. By the gate he stopped me and asked

"where are you riding to sir?" I answered "away from here, away from here,

always away from here. Only by doing so can I reach my destination." "Then

you know your destination" he asked. "Yes" I said "I have already said so,

'Away-From-Here' that is my destination." "You have no provisions with you"

he said. "I don't need any" I said. "The journey is so long that I will die

of hunger if I do not get something along the way. It is, fortunately, a

truely immense journey.""
