Mapy.cz gradually transitioning to Mapy.com

Mapy.cz, or now also mapy.com apparenly, offer the best tool by far for people who go on foot or bike. I think google is still better as a car navigation, but as far as tourism goest i this has no match. City or countryside - it doesnt matter. Want to know where you can find a watterspout in a city? Info is there. Want to know where the nearest restroom is? Info is there. Tiny paths through every forrest or desert? Got it. Paraglide takeoff spot? Also. Every bench, childrens playground, large tree, powerlines, POI, bike trail, crosscountry skiing.

Kofola

It tastes great! I always recommend it as a Czech refreshing drink to my friends from abroad who don't know it. But i have learned not to compare it with Cola anymore. Its not a cola alternative. It has its own unique and delicious taste. The only thing that it has similar to coke is the color and fizzyness. Tastewise it is superior to Cola in my opinion because it is not so sweet. And it tastes much more of herbs.

When i advertise it as coke-like to friends from abroad they just seem to think this is shitty coke. When you say look this is a super refreshing drink that tastes a bit of herbs and it is pretty unique in its taste, they tend to be pleasantly surprised.

Years ago I spoke to a Turk in Germany who said something similar about eastern europeans migrating to Germany. His argument against them migrating was that there are too many migrants in Germany already and he felt his livelihood was threatened because of it.

It actually makes sense from a a job security perspective (he was a cab driver).

I am experiencing a similar feeling in a different setting. We bought an old house in a tiny village. Me and my wife we both love nature and moved out of the city into a forgotten place. In the oast few years this place became popular and now more and more people are buying land and building houses here. I get why they do it, i did it too. Its beautiful here. But i just dont want them here. Soon this place will be another rowded popular mountain spot. I hate to think about it. I want it to remain calm.

This is kind of like asking if it is bad if you dont have a girlfriend. Not really. It all depends on if you want one and think you'd be a happier person in a romantic relationship.

If you feel likenhaving more friends would make you happier then go for it and find yourself some more friends.

I recently moved somewhere where i dont know anybody. And this makes me sometimes feel lonely. I hope I meet some locals that i could be friends with. Had no luck so far. But I am also a shy and introverted person so making friends is hard for me.
