Flickr is good for a number of reasons. I wrote a lot of stories as a hobby about a year back and went there for ideas and models. They have countless excellent photographers that leave me awestruck. My favorite would be unedited pictures of natural scenery and/or buildings and monuments. It feels more natural that way. :)
By typing 'Cesky Krumlov' into the search box, I get so many amazing pictures. It's like I can actually experience Cesky Krumlov without even being there. (It is actually Ceský Krumlov but I'll save myself some effort by relieving the acute Y!)
That's the beautiful Czech Republic in a snowy December. Isn't it just like what you'd imagine out of a storybook?
This is another gorgeous view from what I think might just be from the top of an old bell tower . . . or a helicopter. :) Don't hesitate on viewing the photographer's page I've linked these to!
Having some coffee alongside the River Vltava? This is what you get. Colorful houses more than pleasing to the eye.
Here is an example of 'dressing like the locals' . . . or at least dressing like what people who go to Cesky Krumlov! The main article is Tourist? Where?! which you can find by clicking the link. Let me go a few more pages down and see if I can find a better picture.
This photograph shows a group of people hanging around this place whose name I do not know. Someone enlighten me? :)
Now take a look at this picture of children, teenagers, and young adults! Here's what the photographer said: "Take a close look at what the children are wearing to see what is "stylish" in Cesky Krumlov, Czech Republic in October 2006." It may be in 2006 but at least you know what's normal there. Just like most seasonal countries, no? Just ditch that nasty tourist cap that says Czech It Out home!
Now you know how to take advantage of a very good website. How well do you blend in in a foreign country? Write it in the comments below!
