The number of times I’ve been misunderstood, have my sentence AND MESSAGE cut short and plain dismissed here has gotten me so frustrated 😬😀I’ve noticed people are so quick to cut your sentence without hearing the whole message and responding to what they thought you said, which most times, they assume it’s an ATTACK on them. And so I’ve had this conversation many times with some locals and they admit to doing it (my Czech husband included 😀) . They are so quick to go on defensive mode, it’s like an instinct. Before, I used to take it and just move in with my day. But in this instance, I actually stood my ground and let her know what I was saying. We made up and had a long conversation with the lady and she said it’s a habit that comes from the past of their country (Czech Republic). As an expat, have you ever had such instances?? Or as a local, what are your thoughts ? ..........#czechrepublic🇨🇿 #czech #cultureshock #languagebarrier #czechlanguage #learnczech #czechia🇨🇿 #czechliving

What makes our events different? 🤔Well, you know what they say, “Never Stop 🛑 Learning”. It’s that simple. Systems get updates, including your phone’s operating system. If you don’t upgrade your brain, you’ll always have the same information you had last year, 2 years ago, etc. We learn by interacting and listening to people. Our events aren’t just hanging around talking about the latest episode of “The Bachelor” : yeah yeah 😀We bring in experts in their fields to educate us on certain personal and professional growth topics. Thought provoking topics. And as a BONUS 🤗, you get to meet all the wonderful expat and LOCAl women who come to our events . After each event you see people exchanging 📱 phone numbers, Instagram handles and so forth.At the last speed networking event we had, we literally ended up creating a new group chat on Instagram with some of the ladies that attended. It was THAT fun 🤩that we wanted to keep in touch !!Now think about it, these are people you didn’t even know existed before the event.

Can we talk about just how groceries are so expensive in Prague… In the news the other day they were comparing grocery item prices between Germany, Poland and Czech and my gosh, Czech prices were almost twice the price in Germany and significantly higher than prices in Poland. Czech shoppers were buying their groceries in Poland and Germany. But that’s not even the sad part, the sad part is, the quality is also better in Germany than what we get here 🥲🥲.What is going on? Somebody help, where do you find your cheap groceries ? ..........#relatablememes #groceryshopping #shopping #memevideo #relatables #prague #czechrepublic
Thank you for a wonderful year ❤️❤️#prague #expats #multicultural
As a multicultural community, we had this discussion a while back on stereotypes where a certain country, race or religion is put under one umbrella ☂️ and labeled as that ONE thing. We see, hear and read a lot about this everyday. It is not nice knowing whatever you do you will always be labeled as that one thing which, in most cases, you have nothing to do with it - kind of like the “random” search at airports for certain people. It’s exhausting.One reason we are having this multicultural party where people bring their cultural foods is to have this conversation in person. But most importantly, to highlight certain things in our cultures /countries that people are not aware of. The lovely, interesting, weird things 🙂😊. We want to hear from you, not the media or what has been labeled as by society.This video is a perfect example of stereotyping people. What are your thoughts?.........#diversity #stereotypes #expats #ukrainegirls #ukrainegram #americans #ukraina #ukrainian_insta

We totally understand that leaving the house is such a hard, daunting task. The mere thought of getting ready just makes you lose all motivation. But sometimes you gotta throw away the excuses, leave your comfort zone and go do something different if you want your life to be somewhere else than where it was 3 months ago .Change comes from doing the uncomfortable things sometimes. And we are inviting you to come network with us and maybe, your friend is there who knows ? And if not, at least you met knew people and learnt something in the process because our events are not just about drinking coffee and asking each other “where are you from” . Our aim is that you leave with new knowledge. So go comment “network” if you are ready to connect:) ...........#expatwomen #expatwoman #expats #livingabroad #abroadlife #expatliving #womenevents #networking #dearladiesnetwork
