Where are we living this year at Worlds???

Post by The Energizer Benny »

Lets find some phat place we can all live.

It was really cool in Orlando to be so close to ALL the other footbaggers, so one could kick party at any time.

I want somewhere with my own kitchen, so thats I can create a kosher place.

Any ideas from Pragueish people?

I think we should wait with organizing anything before the real organizers says anything about accomodation.
So far they have only told that we will live close to the event-site.

I wasnt saying we should all go book today, I was just putting out my energy that it would be cool to get some kind of houses/apartments right near each other. They beat the crud out of hotel rooms, and they have a kitchen, which means I could eat food.

No worries, the accomodation will be in student houses like 3 min. walk from the event site- it is quite ok and cheap.

Everything is prague is fairly cheap, the exchange rate is awesome since they haven't adapted the euro yet. And good luck with the czech babes, they are stunning but I didn't find that very many spoke fluent english (and its so cute when they try :lol: ). I wish I was native!

There are small kitchens from what I remember.

Everyday there will be big organised party in different place (we have team of people for this) , but still people can party in those student houses, or in the clubs, which are inside.

Currently the Czech Crown is the fastest growing currency in the World, but this trend should stop in the middle of the next month and then it should go a bit down. So it is not that cheap now as in 2003 because back then dollar was 27 Crowns and now it is just 16,8.

Not to be a jerk or anything, but if you reeeeeally want a place with your own kitchen...couldn't you look that sort of thing up yourself? As I recall, that's how the whole house thing at worlds last year went down. Why wait for someone else to do it when you can do it yourself. Just google a translation website and you're good. Admittedly, I dunno if any do czech, and maybe you already looked into this, but I'm just sayin'...if you want it done right, do it yourself.

No offense too any organizers, but I had a terrible experience at the last dorms, I could not find anybody from footbag when I got there, I got a room that was overheated, and the windows did not close and lock, this came too light at 3:00am when some drunk gut entered through my window, too the plce's credit they had no plastic cups so I had hard thick rock glass'es for which I was able too hit the guy in the head with and he left. The oranizers kinly helped me secure a beatiful hostel the follwing night. I have been researching this on-line every few nights for the past couple of months, there ain't no terre verde's in prague. I have found some apartments that look cool and are not too bad. try www.pragueapartments-k.com. I had seen a hotel that had efficientcy's but lost the info. If I can find it it was ok because it had a pool ac and everyone could stay in one uge place. ac is not common in cz and is hard to find and cz can be real hot this time of year. Any other peoples looking for place's who see something neat please post so I will be able too check it out as well thanks ted f

But I've known you for years... :wink:

Back in 03 Tu, Tuan, Ahren, Eric and Carol rented a sweet apartment somewhere in Prague for the week. I'll probably email Tu at some point and get more info, but I just wanted to point out that nice places in the city do exist, so while we won't be able to exactly replicate terra verde, other alternatives do exist.

btw, there are lots of good nd cheap hotels in Prague, so don't worry. Dexter's crew will manage to find something fantastic for us. He always succeeds.
