Wedding present for a friend who lives in Prague
I have a good friend (from the US) who recently got married to a Czech citizen in Prague. He's not the type to create a wedding registry, but I'd like to get him and his new wife something nice. More thoughts inside: [more inside]
Prague for single oldster
I am planning a trip to Prague. When I went to Barcelona, I stayed in a dorm at a hostel for a night and it was fine. I am old and I am traveling alone. I will have three nights. I do not have a lot of money, but a single room would be nice. Where should I stay, where should I go, what should I eat? [more inside]

What's with Prague being so grumpy?
I'm living in Prague for a short while. I've quickly noticed that the general public demeanor here is pretty grumpy. People are silent and sour-faced on trams and eye you suspiciously if you're being chatty with friends. Shopkeepers don't seem to like the fact that you've chosen their business. Servicepeople are surly. Etc. This isn't uniformly true, of course, but it's striking, especially given that I'm Canadian and used to the opposite. So, uh, what gives? Is this an arbitrary cultural setting? Is it adaptive in any way I can't figure out? Do people learn to be like this?

Prague in May
I'm going to Prague for work for a week in May. I have never been. I'll be by myself socially and presenting at a conference for two or three days during the week. What tourist things can't be missed? What are the best restaurants? Any general recommendations for traveling in Prague?

Prague mid-February: cold weather clothing and footwear
Will be in Prague and the surrounding region in the middle of February. We are from a famously moderate climate where winter is not so cold and summer not so hot. No hiking or trekking, but we will be out walking in the city and small villages for extended periods day and night. Trying to pack light - so what essentials to take for wet/cold weather?

Apartment Numbers in Prague
I'm wondering about the conventions of apartment numbering in Prague: whether the individual apartments in a building are typically assigned numbers (or letters? or a different designation?), whether they normally appear on doors or on mailboxes, and anything else that might be of note about them. Anecdotal information from people who have been in a Prague apartment building once or twice but can't speak to overall trends would also be helpful.

Scams in Prague?
Going to Prague soon.

Awesome day trips from Prague, Krakow, and/or Budapest?
When I went to Copenhagen back in May, I went to the Louisiana Museum and the Viking Ship museum, both not too far from the city and incredibly awesome.
