We all passed the course and begin teaching January 5th. Ian went home to Odessa and I moved out of student housing after finding a terrific flat. Jana and Gulnara helped me move to my new place by each dragging a big red suitcase through the metro, over cobblestones, and through lots of slush.
I'm a Praguian now, Prahan, Prawn? What do you call someone who calls Prague home?
Here we are trying our first Czech beer
at the Hungry or Thirsty Deer Pub
(I can never remember if the deer is hungry or thirsty -
probably both)

Ian says the Russian superstition is whomever sits
in the corner will never get married.
oops, too late

Hi Karen,
Congratulations on passing your course! I knew you would do it! Now you're able to get out there and have some fun and celebrate this new part of your life!
Congrats! You are now a Prazan! Hope you enjoy your first Christmas in the CR; Vessele Vanoce!
Karen, congratulations on the course! I guess you are on to go out and teach now :)
You are inspiring!! Which TEFL course did you take? I'm thinking of making the leap!
Sarah, I would recommend taking the course at a school you're going to teach at because it's so fun to hang out with the fabulous people you meet in your course after TEFL is over. Or another option is to take the TEFL course in Western Europe, since it's hard for North Americans to get permission to live there - students are welcome.
