Unlikely, the pool is about 10 meters away. Maybe someone spilling their drink on you? No, that would have been more liquid drizzling down your face. This is something else. An unknown and during the hot…

Europe’s heat wave has wrapped its fiery hands around Prague as tightly as around every other European city. 35 degrees by day, 26 degrees by night: How could one possibly live through such temperatures without breaking a sweat?
