Ahoj from the Czech Republic!

Post: # 141606Post JeremyinCzechRep »

Hi all,
I'm Jeremy in the Czech Republic. I bought a house here two years ago and have 32 trees in my back garden and plenty of room for growing vegetables and a lovely rich dark soil to grow them in. Very cold winters (minus 20!) and warm summers (up to about 35). No regrets about moving here.

Which is ironic, as there are a lot of people who are 50-90% self sufficient here. In my village lots of people have rabbits and chickens. My neighbour has a couple of lambs. Almost everyone grows their own vegetables and mushrooming season is a joy. Travelling on the train back from the hills there is a fanstastic mushroomy aroma with people comparing their finds. At least half the passengers will have a basket of mushrooms to be dried, bottled or eaten fresh.

Not a native of the Czech Republic. I don't drink enough slivovice to pass the test. I was born in England and moved here from France two years ago.
