Travelog for: Slowly-Slowly

Hello world! This is Slowly-Slowly speaking. I'm a friendly turtle (so my friends say). I like to explore the world and take part of the everyday life of my host(s). I love nature and classical music. I always take it easy and take my time to enjoy the pleasant things in life. I hope to meet you soon! Here are some pictures of me, still at home.

My friends and me.

Dear all,

Good news! I'm invited by Nuriayasmin to go on holiday to the Czech Republic with her! But first I travel to Germany and spend a few days at my host's home. I'm excited!
I leave immediately, but first I say goodbye to my friends HolgiHH and Cuty.

Oof, this envelop is tight! I just make the best of it and take a nap. When I open my eyes again I will be in Germany!

Hello Mum!

I slept quite well in my envelope and now the journey is over. I've safely arrived at my host's home and was greeted by Brinda and Shesh who will also go to the Czech Republic. They enjoyed the candies I had brought with me and my host liked the postcard very much. Hope you're fine. Talk to you soon.

Yours,
Slowly-Slowly

Hi Mum

Greetings from the north of the Czech Republic. We arrived her after a 10-hours journey by train and bus and are a bit exhausted now. 'We're staying at a cozy hotel with just 6 rooms and we TV's have a bed of our own. The look out of the window is also very nice.

Bye, Slowly-Slowly

Hi Mum

Today I visited Hrad Valdštejn which was once in the possession of the famous Wallenstein, the supreme commander of the armies of the Habsburg monarchy during the Thirty Years' War in the 17th century. The castle is now maintained by the city of Turnov. It's situated in the forest about 4 km away from Turnov. On our way to the castle we also passed the rock Hlavatice with its viewing platform and saw some art in the forest. Unfortunately on our way back it was raining cats and dogs, so instead of having a look around the city center in the afternoon, nuriayasmin decided to leave us TV's at the hotel so we wouldn't get wet.

Dear Mum

Today we visited Hruba Skala castle which is nowadays a hotel and restaurant and afterwards we took a long walk through the nature reserve of Hruboskalsko. On our way back it started to rain again but we nevertheless had a great day.

Dear Mum

Today we went to Liberec by train and did some shopping. On the photos you can see me in front of the town hall and in front of the theatre. Tomorrow we're going back to Germany but I'm already looking forward to my second trip to the Czech Republic at the end of June. Hope you're fine.

Yours Slowly-Slowly

Dear Mum

After spending a quiet time at my host's home in Germany, I'm now traveling again. Here's a photo of myself in the city centre of the Austrian city of Linz. We spent there just one night, on our way to the Czech Republic.

Dear Mum

I'm at lake Lipno now, the area is also called the South Bohemian Riviera. Lipno is an artificial lake. There are lots of holiday resorts and camp site on the northern lakeshore while the south is pure wilderness, the Bohemian Forest - or Šumava as it's called in Czech. Here are some pictures:

Dear Mum

Today I went to Petřín Hill and to Staromětské Náměstí where I saw the beautiful astronomical clock and the statue of reformer Jan Hus.

Keep fine,

Dear Slowly-Slowly,

We think of you and hope to see you soon!

After a long time in the Czeck Republic I came home and met new friends!
We made bramble berry jam together.
