In this video I'll tell you what I got wrong about Czechia and Czech culture to prevent any visiting foreigners from getting fined, poisoned, or simply embarrassed.
🙋🏻♀️ Hi, I'm Jen, an 🇺🇸 American living in 🇨🇿 Prague, Czechia for the past 9 years. What do I know about Czechs in the first place? More every day! I make it my mission to share everything I learn about this country and culture on my channel Dream Prague, even if I sometimes get it wrong.

Nitpicking is a Czech national sport.
I've realized!
@@DreamPrague sorry for that :)
no, czech national sport is COMPLAINING, after that is nitpicking, and public humiliation and make dark black humor about death
Once you have large publick audience, you will always find few people insisting on not so important details, or too sensitive ( Moravians mostly😉) , no matter where you are. I had to laugh you had to explain Honza’s ornitologhy background concerning Moravian and Silesian birdies🦅. By the way, sweet stuff with chockolate from your last video is called llittle Indian 🛶🏹 or a Bomb💣 🤣
I find it great when people want to "have the facts right" ;-) Anyway, correcting someone on differences between chlebíček and smaženka was always my big dream... :)
We Czechs are also experts on everything.
Perhaps Americans are becoming more Czech? 🤔
@@DreamPrague especially when it comes to biathlon, ice hockey or football
Also Slovaks are experts on everything, especially in the comments section to various articles. If the article is about epidemiology, you find a lot of "experts" in the comments section. If the article is about sports, you find a lot of "experts" on sports there.... Insert any topic, you will observe the same thing.
When it comes to critical thinking, neither Americans nor Czechs have impressed me too much. Way behind Jews, Brits, Dutch, Scandinavians.
@@cernejr Brtis? Brexit is clearly NOT the result of critical thinking. Fools are everywhere on the world....
Jen! Thank you for all the videos you do! The fact that we mentioned you're video was not meant bad in ANY way. We just come across this thing (drinking in public) a lot, so we wanted to clarify this. We also mention in the video that this ordinance is violated regularly not only by tourists but by us as well. Love your show, and sent you a msg on Instagram, wish and hope we can do something together!

I would say that we Silesians are just happy to be acknowledged.
Lmaoo true
Silesians were shipped to Germany (and some killed) in 1945-1946. Today Silesia do not have strong identity, one is either Moravian or Polish. Plus the numbers are small.
@@cernejr We do have an identity it's called being Czech. Czech=Bohemian + Moravian + Silesian
@@cernejr Tuž mě aji s všickima odsuneli do Rajchu před 75 rokami?! To aji pociung v Polsce přijecho včešněj!
Holding on to Silesian identity is just a way to keep a prospect to potentialy press claim to the entirety of its tetritory in some obscure future.
Don't get poisoned by mushrooms nor comments. You're awesome. :-)
😘
Biggest mistake : Telling people that Czechia or Slovakia are in Eastern Europe #so_you_have_chosen_death

IT. WAS. A. JOKE! ffs.....

Hey my wife is from Brno and says she is pretty sure vrabec (Moravian sparrow) is named that way because the pieces of the pork are as big as the bird, or at least they should be.
Yes, and also the cutting of meat which were actually the rest from more important parts of meat, looks like a sparrow ruffling its feathers. Sparrows were very common in the countryside.

Hi Jen, a great vlog of self-reflection! One thing you probably got about Czechs by now is that any mistake, no matter how small, will be identified, mercilessly scrutinized, and corrected on the spot! May be due to the education system. The fact that on occasion there may be several conflicting corrections will be graciously overlooked. Alternative facts anyone?
Jo jo, education system... "Olomouc je historické hlavní město Moravy." Taky mi vždycky přišlo, že máme právě opačný problém, než má Amerika.
True, another problem of the czech education. We deeply focus on the history, almost not learning past 100 years in school (and also just in the lasts years of high schools), just a little bit of information about what we should be aware of and learning from. But we know exactly what happened in 1415, why that king in middle ages killed his brother and took his wife and how many antic philosophers you would need to change a light bulb. Super important! 😁
@@ondrejandydlohos "how many antic philosophers you should need to change a lightbulb" :D
But it's true that the more recent history often gets a very quick runthrough at the end of the school year...
When I was attending the special history class for my maturita in history, our teacher specifically decided to focus on the 20th century history of "the Third World" the whole year (aside from preparation for the maturita questions) because that's something you _never_ have time for in regular lessons, yet it influenced 20th (and 21st) century history a lot. It has been, indeed, priceless for understanding a lot of things...
... but I feel that's actually a gap in the education we share with the US. :-)
@@beth12svist Would you believe me that I totally forgot I wrote this joke? I've just read it now and had a proper laught 😁
Yeah I can imagine. We should know something about the history, for sure. But the amount of information we are getting of very past ages are enormous and last century is just "meh". I also chose a "Second half of the 20th century" as a special subject in my 4th grade on highschool just because I was curious. It's really weird that schools put this so much aside. Also in other countries.
And then you are asking yourself why so many people for example vote for Communist party.
But it also might be residuum of communist approach to teaching. They didn't want us to know, what happened in last ten years and before. And thus this whole process might evolve even deeper and more crazy. This is just my idea, what could happen, I am not sure that it happened exactly like this, but I can imagine it.
I'd absolutely love to see your Schwartzenbergs video
We also do have our fair share of experts in everything. I blame the internet! :D

Jesus, I love your sarcasm. You are becoming a real czech!
Ad imperial vs metric system - it reminds me one explanation from "Good Omens" book: Two farthings = One Ha'penny. Two ha'pennies = One Penny. Three pennies = A Thrupenny Bit. Two Thrupences = A Sixpence. Two Sixpences = One Shilling, or Bob. Two Bob = A Florin. One Florin and one Sixpence = Half a Crown. Four Half Crowns = Ten Bob Note. Two Ten Bob Notes = One Pound (or 240 pennies). One Pound and One Shilling = One Guinea.
The British resisted decimalized currency for a long time because they thought it was too complicated."
that's hilarious!
If you really thought about it, you might understand why the decimal system is not Jesus. The imperial system divides the pound into 240 bits which is great for further division by 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, ... etc. 100 can only be divided by 2, 4, 5, 10, 20, 25, 50. Dont think decimal is king just because you were born into it.
@@Likexner So do you prefer to multiply and divide numbers by lets say by 6 or 8 and do you expect to do that without calculator? Much easier to do that by 10.
@@Likexner that system may come from sumerian counting system. They used system with base 60. Our counting of angles is a remainder thereof. It was taken over by arabs, who also took over indian decimal system, got them all mixed with their own system(s) and when they invaded europe, they brought it all with them. What counting base is used in which sphere was heavily influenced mainly by who developed the mathematical field. Angle theory was developed mainly by the Arabs, taken over by the sumers, so that is why we use 60 base. Math fields which were developed in Greece prefered to use 10 base system, so that is why it is prevalent in arithmetics. For the greeks, 10 was considered a perfect number, mainly because of pythagorean school, and they even ascribed magical powers to it. The history of counting systems is pretty fascinating.
@@martinajurickova5750 Yes, it is fascinating. I just had to react because i dont like the smugness of decimal supremacists who know very little about the subject and think that the system they were born into is the best because... because.
Oh Jen, you're such a treasure. Honestly admitting mistakes and correcting them, adding humour and flair on top. Another great video.
Jen, you learn typical czech sarcasm very well! 😁👍🏻I like it!
Well done, Jen. Thanks for the humble video today. As a Canadian living in Prague, I feel like I'm learning all the time as well. It's all about hearing from the locals and figuring things out! Thanks for keeping it coming. I did learn about mushrooms today, ha!
In our school we are friends with our teachers, but we belive everything they says. (Unless the class nerd knows better.) I think the enviroment at schools change since our parents were there. Now its pretty normal to ask teacher how are they today (very personal question in Czechia) and just have a talk about their and our lives at the high school.
I got a lot of intelligent fun again! Thanks. Keep it going, Jen. I´m sending some of your videos to my relatives in the US and they enjoy them a lot.
You made the video so entertaining! I like your comparisons and humour.👍
I always wondered how the hell has happened that you know much more about the Czech history than i do (i blamed our school system) but now i found out your wikipedia magic trick :DDD. Love this videos, great job. :)
Yes, please, to a video on the Schwartzenbergs. I enjoy watching your channel. I have family in Czechia and this helps when I can't travel there from US. Best to you and hug Tobik for me!
Thank you, Jen! Excellent - as usual! :-D
Man what an amazing video. Thanks and keep it up! 🇨🇿
Haha very funny video.. I loved!! I hope the channel keep growing =).. Stay safe!
Thank You Bruno :)
Olomoucké tvarůžky produce in the town Loštice. There is the restaurant, they cook a very many meals from the Olomoucké tvarůžky, there. There is a museum of the history of this cheese, too. It is a very nice trip.
Your channel as well as Honest Guide are two the best about Prague to me!! Awesome!
This background is actually really really amazing 🤩 !
Oh god, I'm so glad you're a good sport. Sometimes when I read (or even type, lol) the comments below your videos, I feel like you must be getting really tired of everybody always nitpicking on every single word.
Jenn, you can´t take us seriously most of the times. we are trolls(ač trollové pochází ze skandinávie, asi se přesídlili sem) :D

Have you been to Czech Paradise yet? It's not that far away from Prague 🙂
Jen, your channel conveys amazing positivity, unique sense of humor, and clearly displays a very distinct storytelling knack on top of all the hard work you put in. In case this video was motivated by your feeling attacked out of proportion by some commenters (not saying it was), please thicken your skin and keep the great content coming. Yes, we Czechs can be judgmental. Old news. And maybe that's why we need ambassadors like you whether or not most of us realize it. You are the inviting hand reaching across the aisle and your courage is and will be appreciated. Please never spend a minute doubting that. (BTW pretty sure Janek meant no malice)
Yay - new video. Really happy about it.
Hi Jen, wouldn't you like to make a video of what you think about Czech fairy tales? I'll write the best ones here♥️
Tři oříšky pro Popelku
Lotrando a Zubejda
Korunní princ
Anděl Páně
Dvanáct měsíčků
Maharal
thank you for this list, I'll add it to my research!
Oooh, I suggested this idea just this past Christmas....specifically, with what's probably THE most famous Czech movie fairy tale, 3 Hazelnuts for Cinderella....this video has very decent English subtitles:m.ruclips.net/video/dIFCIArJrCc/видео.html
Tři oříšky pro Popelku is also quite famous in other countries, especially in Germany and Norway. There's an exposition dedicated to this movie in Moritzburg Castle in Germany. In Norway, 20% of viewers tune in every year to watch movie during Christmas.
S čerty nejsou žerty!
@@DreamPrague "Dvanáct měsíčků" is the only fairytale, that has origin solely in Czechia (Bohemia probably), it comes at least from the middleages. Cant find the source for that, but other fairytales are either made up in a recent history (so not traditional) or are part of greater story universum originating elswhere (Cinderella, Little Red Hood etc.).
Well, I think there always was a "cold war" between Bohemia and Moravia. Both sides hate something about the other side and spear rumors (and most of the rumors or jokes are on Moravia, so they mostly just defend themself) about that, etc. But nowadays I think it's a little bit cool down, cause now Moravia is fighting with Prague, and sometimes Bohemia helps them with that. The world mostly sees only Prague, not the whole Czech republic, and they believe that they visit Prague they will know Czech culture, etc. Because of that Bohemia is starting to disappear under the light of Prague and I believe that they don't like it too.
I also hear an opinion that Prague is the Czech Republic, also one politician said that in Brno... I'm surprised that he is still alive too.
Moravians hates on Czechs and Czechs are making fun of Moravians because of that.
Everyone hate Prague, so Prague people makes fun of them.
Thats how it really is :)
Gracious AND humorous.- thank you for another great video!
I think this is my favourite video that I've seen from you :D very entertaining, and it's great that you can laugh at yourself.

Good evening Jennifer. Since the beggining of "home office era" it has become part of my weekly routine, than anytime You post a new video, I go to my Vientamnamec, buy a bottle of any cheap wine and drink it while watching. Love your vids aplenty! Greeting from Žižkov.
The red mushroom is poisonous but it does make you high if you take only a little bit. Its just not as great as magic mushrooms.
I'm here to read tips on Olomouc. Never been (I knooooow) and I'd love to visit. Tips from locals are priceless. ❤️

Actually, you are right about the red mushroom "Mochomůrka červená" being non-toxic and hallucinogenic. Some other mushrooms from this family are however deadly and few edible). We were talking about that in biochemistry - thus it should be quite credible information.

Hi Jen, first, thanks for your videos! This is maybe only channel I watch more regularly and it's great to watch some opinions on our culture. I think it gives me better perspective, great! About Brno and Olomouc, you're right and don't be hard on yourself. Moravia used to be much more decentralised, so it's sometimes dificult to determine the right capital :) And yes, we (Moravians and Silesians) are proud of our capitals, so you have big plus if you mention this :)

@@JanHurych good idea
@@DreamPrague actually, the other day we went with our friends to two castles/palaces near Tabor just to pass the time nicely, and it turned out both were the Scharzenbergers' at some point (one still is, actually, the other one the state took from them - it was the Orlik palace and Zvikov castle). Then it turned out they owned like half of the South Czech region! There is this really interesting story of theirs that relates to the Hluboka nad Vltavou castle, about how their opposed the nazis and tried to protect their employees against them, check it out! The Schwarzenberger familiy, it sure seems like a very interesting topic! :)
@@DreamPrague The Schwarzenberg family has their mark on human bones in Constance in Sedlec. It is a magical place with a leaning tower like in Pisa. If you want, I can try to get in touch and permission to shoot a video inside the building.
Just for fun, Karel Schwarzenberg also has his wine Cuveé Samet here.
Dear Jen, if you like the smelly cheese, I recommend you to visit Loštice near to Olomouc. That is the place the cheese is made :)

Hey Jen! I live in Olomouc and there are many places that this city can offer. Besides the Zoo, historical center, St. Wenceslav's Cathedral, and Botanical gardens that have already been mentioned.. There are many fortifications around the city since it used to be a fortress city in the past. Those are really worth a visit :) There's also the University of Palacky's Botanical Garden and many interesting museums. One last thing I recommend is “Dům přírody Litovelského Pomoraví“ in Horka nad Moravou near the Olomouc.

Hey Jen, if you ever come to Olomouc, definitely take a walk through Bezručovy sady and Smetanovy sady . It's a beautiful park, especially during summer. Also definitely buy a one day tram ticket, it's really cheap and the tram goes all around the historical part of the city. Parking in Olomouc is very hectic so I prefer taking tram and walking. The street system is very similar to Prague (old narrow streets with minimal traffic). ♥

Myslím, že to nebyly žádné velké chyby - jen drobnosti. Ale hezké, že i takové drobnosti stojí za to je dát na pravou míru. Nejvíc o panu Schwarzenbergovi, ten si úctu rozhodně zaslouží. Pro Českou republiku toho udělal daleko víc, než lecjaký "vlastenec".
Btw kdysi tu bylo téma, jak nejlépe získat informace o době komunistické pomocí dobových filmů - napadlo mě, že ideální prostředek je film "Kouř", natočený krátce po revoluci v roce 1990, který hezky za čerstva ukazuje hnus a špínu komunismu. A ten film je kult movie!
To je ten Schwarzenberg který řekl, že máme , vítat " uprchlíky " , jak nám velí EU a držet hubu a krok ? Že se s tím nedá nic dělat, doba se mění a my si musíme jen zvyknout a nic proti tomu nepodnikat ?
@@mirekhalek2948 Ne, to si pletete, to o něm rozšiřovali Nejedlý se Zemanem.
@@milosKL Já vám nevím, ale viděl jsem rozhovor na ČT ( přímý přenos myslím ) a tam to takto - a zcela jasně - říkal. Nevím, jestli mu to tam odkejvávala ještě paní Vašáryová.....Každopádně tu nechci politikařit, sem se to nehodí.
@@mirekhalek2948 mě by fakt zajímalo, co zrovna vy hledáte na youtube kanálu dvou imigrantů, když vás jen ta představa někoho takového dokáže tak strašně vyděsit :- )
Každopádně doufám, že dost lidí s odstupem času došlo, jak nechutná a špinavá může být prezidentská kampaň. To máme s Amerikou asi společné, i když jejich kultura je v tomto ohledu stále na násobně vyšší úrovni.
@@milosKL Kampaň byla za hranou, to máte pravdu, ale já píši jen to, co jsem slyšel na vlastní uši.......Já myslím, že vy i já chápeme rozdíl mezi migranty typu Jen a " Honzy " a migranty propagovanými Bruselem, takže tato poznámka není fér.
Hey, nice vid!
I have been in Olomouc many times in the past and from tourist point of view - astronomical clock and pillar of the holy trinity at Horní Náměstí, also St. Wenceslas Cathedral, The Red Church and many other views as you walk through the historical centre. You can as well take stroll in Čechovy, Smetanovy and Bezručovy sady and Svatý Kopeček, where you can find Basilica and local Zoo, is close to the city and reachable by the bus. It's trip for a day, or two, if you really want to enjoy yourself :)
I was born in Praha in 1956 and arrived in Australia early 1970 (after the problems in 1968). Já
už nemluvím česky but I enjoy your channel
Hi Jen,
Just found your video weeks ago great job. Do you follow honest guy's videos and who else do you follow for information about Prague/ Czech.
Thank you
