When I went to Czech Republic to spend my winter vacation, I didn't think at all I would fall in love with this wonderful country. We went to Špindlerův Mlýn ski resort in Czechia which is considered to be one of the best ski resorts in the country. There we rented a nice ski hut at a very favorable price and we really surprised at the quality of the service. We really didn’t expect the service to be so good at a price we rented it. We had everything we needed there and we felt as if we were at home. The other thing that made me really glad with my choice was the nature. Špindlerův Mlýn offers really excellent views and good ski conditions. Of course, mountains there are not so high as they are in the Alps but it was enough for us as we were just beginners in skiing. The weather was also excellent all the time we spend there, so we came back home full of impressions from our ski vacation in Czech Republic and happy.
It's absolutely impossible to get to know the country without traveling around it. And I understood this simple truth when I spent my vacation in Lithuania. I went there on holidays to visit a friend of mine. Frankly speaking, the only thing I wanted to do there was to relax on the seaside. But my friend was of another opinion. She had a car, so she planned an excursion program for us as she wanted to show me her country. We went to Trakai, a very ancient city that was the former resident of Lithuanian grand dukes. This place appeared to be very picturesque as it was surrounded by four wonderful lakes. More over, the most important attraction of the city was its castle. The castle is a really unique place as only here people have the opportunity to see the Lithuanian knights. We were lucky to see the knights’ tournaments that was organized by one of the local clubs there. It was a real show! It seemed to me that I found myself in the Middle Ages and took part in one of the Lithuanian battles for their motherland. So good the “knights” acted in the castle. I was under impression from what I saw and I wanted to get to know more about her country. So she promised to take me Vilnius the next day to show the capital of Lithuania. But this is another story…
