Welcome to View from Prague
My name is Magdalena Marsden (nee Jandakova) and I’m a native Czech living in Prague. I started ‘View from Prague’ blog in January 2019 to share my love for this beautiful city and for travelling and hiking around Czech Republic. I want to show you that you can enjoy Prague in an easy-going, non-touristy kind of way.
