Re: [93attendees] what currency is widely used in Czech?

Greetings, Mr. Novak.

I respectfully ask you to avoid statements, comparisons, adjectives or comments related to the country in which I was proudly born and currently live.  Things happen everywhere and everyone should be conscious, aware and cautious wherever you stay or go.

Finally, if someone of you Guys want to discuss or comment this kind of “issues” with me in person, or knowing more about my country, please let me know and I’ll be more than happy to grab a “piva” with you in Prague.

Respectfully again,

///Gonzalo

P.S.: BTW, my country is COLOMBIA, not COL-U-MBIA.  Thanks, Carlos, for clarifying on that as well.

I'm a bit tired of people calling Colombia Columbia. Columbia is not a country. And it's certainly not 'drug stricken'. It's a country that's has had a lot of problems but has improved dramatically. It's a success history for those who believe that 'drug stricken' countries cannot ever recover.

You are all invited for LACNIC 24 in Bogotá, Colombia, which has amazing food and, except for the traffic, is a beautiful city.

And BTW, if you feel insecure in Praga, you haven't been out there in the world  much.

I like these discussions, its like travelling into drug-wars stricken Columbia – just put
your wallet into the inside pocket of your jacket and you will never encounter any
problem ☺. There are trillions of tourist there at this time of the year so you will be one
out many to spot …

Locals do not use single trip tickets on the public transportation system so if you do you are easily spotted as a tourist. The IETF free pass will help, but warn your companions and/or relatives.

I see it a little differently; my hope is that wearing a PacSafe bag and carrying it cross-body in front of me (rather than at my side or back) marks me as someone more aware of the issue - and thus higher potential difficulty for a thief - leading pickpockets to pass me up for someone who looks like an easier mark.  I don't have to outrun the bear...

  There is a wide spectrum of crime between pickpocketing and getting shot.
Wearing a PacSafe bag cross-body in front is a signal that you got something
valuable. You are making yourself look like the tastiest morsel for that bear.

  When walking around foreign cities I follow the old saying, “the nail that sticks
up gets the hammer.” I try my best to look local or at least not so much like
a tourist but even if I do I don’t look like the one to rob— large wallet in pocket,
PacSafe bag cross-body in front of me….

  Be safe,

  Dan.

Lisa

Having traveled a bit, and having been robbed before, I'm quite comfortable with the expensive bag with anti-theft features.

So have I, but I think a bag like that marks you as a potential target.
