Now this is not the most usual post and especially for my English speaking readers however I wanted to share one post to these two events. I was invited to join our Ambassador in UK Michael Zantovsky at Czech Embassy in London to join and celebrate two important days in Czech history. The first one was to celebrate the creation of Czechoslowakia on 28th October and the second was Velvet Revolution. What a change from all these events I go to that are Fashion related. Czech food and singing national anthem really touched my heart and Mr. Zantovsky speeches were full of passion and humor. I read this article the other day about where your home is…I think my home is in London now but it is so touching to experience real Czech things and stay in touch with your country. I love Czech Republic and always will.
And it does not happen that often that you can hear stories about our previous president Vaclav Havel and get a chance to buy a new biography Havel a Life written by our Ambassador.
Tohle neni asi zcela obvykly post, ale chtela jsem vam napsat o tom jak jsem byla pozvana na Ceskou ambasadu v Londyne oslavit po boku naseho pana Velvyslance Michaela Zantovskeho dva vyznamne dny v nasi historii a to 28. rijna a to vznik Ceskoslovenska a take Sametovou Revoluci. Myslim, ze obe akce byly uplne jine, nez ty modni na ktere jsem bezne zvana, ale oba vecery jsem si nesmirne uzila. Predstavte si, ze tady ziju uz deset let a ted vam nekdo uprostred Londyna nabidne vyborne ceske vino, zeli a spoustu dalsiho jidla (LOL). Navic mate moznost potkat nase vyznamne politiky a zazpivat si nasi hymnu, coz se mi taky normalne nestava. Priznam se, ze v ten moment mi trosku ukapla slzicka. Zajimave je, ze jsem ted cetla v Ceske Elle clanek o lidech, kteri ziji jinde, kde je pro me domov. Ja bych rekla, ze pro me uz je domov v Britanii, ale hrozne rada si pripomenu tyhle krasne veci, ktere me s Ceskem spojuji.
Zejmena oslavy Sametove Revoluce prilakaly spousty vyznamny politiku vcetne Miroslava Topolanka, Karla Schwarzenberga, Pavla Belohradka a take dalsi zname osobnosti Ceska. Zahledla jsem napriklad Miss Janu Dolezalovou a syna Mirka Topolanka. Je hezke videt, ze lide si udelaji cas a prileti az do Londyna podporit pamatku Vaclava Havla, revoluce a take podporit naseho velvyslance Michaela Zantovskeho, ktery nedavno vydal novou Biografii Havel: A Life.
Druha akce byla spojena i se Slovenskou ambasadou, kde vystoupila zpevacka Jana Kirschner a bylo moc hezke slyset i proslov Slovenskeho velvyslance a videt, ze prestoze obe zeme jsou uz nekolik let rozdelene, tak si k sobe stale umi najit cestu.
