My family immigrated to the US from Czechia. I really wished they kept the culture alive, cause I wish I could speak Czech.

Dědečkovi ji hráli ve zpomalené verzi na pohřbu. Byl vojákem čs. zahraniční armády v Anglii (velitel 1. čety u 1. roty 3. praporu Čs. obrněné brigády)

I am very grateful to the Czech people. I have warm memories of my stay in Prague and Brno. I had well appreciated the Gulas and Knedliky. We had great fun in the hospody. Wishing the Czech people a lot of good health and prosperity.

Nejslavnější česká písnička, kterou zpívali vojáci snad všech armád za války...

I'm a Filipino and Japanese by nationality but a pure Czech by ancestry. This is my first step of learning the culture of my grandfather. Proud to be Czech.

Táto pieseň nebola hitom len v Česku. V Nemecku si túto pieseň upravili, dokonca aj v U.S.A. Dokonca americkí generáli nemohli uveriť tomu, že je to pôvodne česká pieseň.

Immigrated almost 3 years ago from Nizozemsko (Netherlands) to Česko. There are a few minor things, nowhere is perfect, but i never had 1 day of homesick or regret, brilliant move.
Czechs are preserved, more neutral, less polarized, and just "act normal." Cost of living is far more affordable even with Czech salary, lower Taxation on all aspects, easier Firearm liberty,
Well just many things better. I love it here <3 Trying to learn the language, but for Germanic speakers is very difficult...

Kvetou růže, kdo ti za to může,
žádný už ti dneska nepomůže,
kvetou, zvadnou, lístečky z nich spadnou,
jako slzy moje na tu trávu chladnou.
Teče, voda, dokola se točí,
to si nelitoval modré oči,
já bych byla pro tebe jen žila,
že mou lásku zklameš, to jsem nemyslela.
Škoda lásky, kterou jsem tobě dala,
ty mé oči, dnes bych si vyplakala,
Moje mládí, uprchlo tak jako sen,
na všechno mi zbyla jenom,
v srdci mém vzpomínka jen.

The original score of the famous W.W.II Polka song "Roll out the barrel", which was a Czech song in reality...something that very few people are aware of! Our love to all the Czech brothers and sisters out there, from Greece!
