Hi, we’re Dana and Jeff Shanberg, authors of this blog. We’re married and are living in Prague. This is our second go-around in this amazing city. We lived here in the mid-1990s and eventually moved away to live a different life in another country. When we left Prague, we didn’t know that the city would work its proverbial magic and start pulling us back several years later. Unable to resist the pull, we returned in 2004 to start yet another stage in our lives.

We run two websites on the Czech Republic. Local Lingo was started in 1998 and is now a site that tries to help those interested in learning Czech. My Czech Republic branched out from Local Lingo in 2003 as a resource covering first-hand information about various aspects of Czech life and travel.

This blog is our third ‘baby’. We think of it as a sort of notebook into which we jot anything and everything from our daily lives here that we think someone out there might find interesting, useful, amusing or even educational in some way.
