September 2021
We walked to the town from Cheb - I advise you to do the same
First thing a tourist will see - endless hotels and restaurants
And a bit of craziness
Expensive and rich
The town is quiet, only pensioners
Park, football field
We sat on a bench, watched the kids. A small group of girls about 15 years old came.
They turned on music, got out IQOS.
One of them recently got her period, she shared this with one of her friends. My congratulations!
A normal generation is growing up.
In general, the whole town looks like this
Central colonnade - like in Poděbrady and any other "Lázně" (spa resorts)
But here it's straight-up Austria, reminded me of Burgenland
In general, boomers are happy
There's basically nothing else in town.
And such trash bins don't exist anywhere else in Czechia
It's simple - the spirit here is not Czech at all, because Germany is across the road
Sign still of the old type
Nobody gives a fuck about the station because only locals use it
I expected standard Czech trains, but 2 unknown compositions arrived at the platform at once
We were traveling with a transfer in Cheb, it turned out these trains are German. The routes are also German, but some of them pass through Czech towns (inside everything is also in German, except people)
On the train to Cheb we sat in the aisle. A Roma guy passing through us said "I'll pass I'll pass I'll pass". A Czech schoolboy said "díky, borče"
On the train from Cheb to Karlovy Vary a Czech guy about 20 years old sat opposite us talking on the phone. He received from me the award "soul of the year 2021". He managed to piss off his girlfriend (BUY IT YOURSELF DO IT YOURSELF WHAT'S WITH YOU) and his buddy (I'M SAD I WON'T GO ANYWHERE IF YOU WANT WRITE MY BACHELOR'S THESIS FOR ME) with his whining.
And outside the window was a beautiful European sunset
