A good, random recommendation I found for Tirana.

The reason I came all the way to İstanbul, @edentravels.bsky.social once writing about fish sandwiches on the sea. Albeit, not in Türkiye, but it gave me Bosphorus nostalgia.

Mornings in the café in Sens. Espressos, wine, and half pints before 11. Tout le monde se connaît.

Feeling like Anton Ego from ratatouille eating all alone in Strasbourg 🇫🇷 Just what I needed after a run.

Dark czech 🇨🇿 larger, in a Dutch bar, as we say ça va en soi

Stout and oysters. Thought was rogue. Was good.

Still my life 12 years later, just now with czech, chinese, turkish, and bulgarian in the mix.

A friend's ultramarathon dinner. Reminded me of kazan chak chak.

Whilst I couldn't study hungarian, I can eat/drink it.

What is the chokehold that Royal Cola had on Czechia? And then it is kofola that I see everywhere. I remember sending it to a Georgian, and he seemed baffled. It's like everything being sponsored by rola cola.

My favourite way to learn languages. A pint and a paper.

Hiked up to the czech (austro-germano) point

Šumava Trails.
2nd place male 🥈
From niche park runs to niche races
Doing my bit for sports diplomacy, IMO

Small town czechia. Cut beer.

In Prague for all of 5 minutes... straight to the pub.
With a sign like that, good thing I am solo.

Another fun afternoon with the @suttontrust.bsky.social as part of the Alumni Leadership Board rounding off my three years

Nonetheless, lots of discussion on volunteering opportunities and more on social mobility

A lovely reminder basically playing volunteer bingo of how involved the alumni are

Mildly annoyed (2/10) that shanghai overtook chengdu as the potential marathon major. That would be such a fun course and full of sights.
