Josef Karas image / www.revue.idnes.czBecause it is mostly the Czech women who dominate  beauty competitions it was surprising for me to see that the male beauty competition was won by a Czech guy. His name is Josef Karas and was beaten only by one other stud – Kamal Ibrahim from Ireland. Josef is a 32-year-old fitness consultant from a Czech village called Obrnice na Mostecku.

Proficient in many sports and some Korean helped him reach the winner’s stand with no problem. ” Now I know what the winners of Czech Miss have to go through after they win their title. It means that one sleeps no more than 6 hours  and the rest of the day is filled with social and humanitarian activities,” says Karas. [click to continue…]

A notoriously famous action-movie actor Jean-Claude Van Damme became part of the committee who picked this year’s Miss Czech Republic (there are actually 2 beauty queen shows running simultaneously, which means that every year we get 2 winners but no one really knows why).

images-3Hello to you all,

I hope you had a wonderful Christmas and that “Jesus” brought  you exactly what you asked for :)

How would you like to win a brand new awesome Czech cookbook that will change your life in the kitchen forever?!? You only have to win the following competition: for those who live abroad and celebrate Christmas Czech-style, write a short narrative on how  your Christmas Eve went and how  you adapted to  the “hostile” conditions of non Czech-living. For example, what did you use instead of a carp? Or did you find a carp in some random grocery store (or from some black market carp dealer for ridiculous amounts of money)? What customs did you do? Did you bake Vanocka with a coin inside of the dough? Did you see the Golden pig? [click to continue…]
