Girls just wanna have fun and equal rights

March 8, 2023

I think in this day and age everyone knows that feminists can bake, make sandwiches and give blowjobs. That much is clear. What still isn’t a hundred percent clear is that feminism is not about women becoming men and having to posses male qualities to become equal. I know what feminism primarily is for me. It’s living in a world…

Why I constantly talk about food and why it’s such a big topic for me

February 11, 2023

I think the title explains exactly what’s on my mind. I share little texts about nutrition here and there, especially in relation to kids, but I never feel like I have enough space to exactly explain what I mean. A lot of the time, I feel like it comes across as over the top, almost hysterical. So here’s my take…

On fathers and mothers

February 1, 2023

I feel like I have started writing this text to stress the importance of fathers, but it took a completely different turn and all I produced was just a stream of my thoughts. The text was long forgotten in the midst of moving continents. Now, months later, after having left Australia, with our perfect regime of massages, pottery, pilates, physio,…

Scotland baby

January 23, 2023

I have escaped to Scotland. In an ideal world, it would have been for three weeks and Lukas would be with me, possibly in a camper van or maybe cozy B&Bs. I am grateful that I at least had these three days to feel free. Things have certainly changed, I was flying with Raynair and I couldn’t care less. I didn’t…

Bad Ideas

November 6, 2022

A few weeks ago, I have shared a text about the old cottage that we have recently moved into. In the spirit of authenticity, I was going to write about everything. On the day I finally sat down to write, I was in a great mood, the weather was fantastic so the text that appeared on my screen was a…

It’s still a shock when it’s your own culture

October 11, 2022

There’s always loads of differences when you move countries, hell that’s why you move in the first place, to experience different cultures. There are things that you love and things that you complain about intensely. I know from various Facebook groups that fellow Czech people always miss different types of flour that are so widely used in our homeland. For…

The real village experience

October 3, 2022

I don’t even know how it happened, but suddenly we are living in a village and living the real village life as it comes. Not the Instagramable village life where you gather walnuts, bake delicious goodies and your kids are somehow still clean. It’s the real Czech village life experience. In a house that’s god knows how old and hasn’t…

Moving overseas – with little kids

September 14, 2022

I am fully aware that I am not the first person to move overseas with two little kids, but it didn’t make it any easier. It wasn’t just a move, it was a move of our first family home. First real home, first home of my own, where I have spent more than two years – six to be exact.…

Instagram versus reality

March 31, 2022

Throughout all the travels, living abroad and raising family across the world, I have learned that it’s not always the good memories that stay with you for life, but the strong ones. Let’s say that on this holiday we have certainly made some strong memories. If you glance at my photos on Instagram, you might think that we are rocking…
