Tomorrow I am going to play soccer so had a nice walk in the shopping avenue (suitable only for cars) searching for shoes. Fucking country – they are obsessed about good quality, branded shoes, average prices around 500 riyals. For one evening of soccer game it is a bit too much. So I have walked…
Arabian weekend and families
Today is like Sunday for Arabs. The concequences of that are very simple – in most shops, restaurants etc you are allowed in you are going with your family only. At first I have been very angry about that, but later have found starbucks coffee 🙂 While drinking grande mocha with caramel and eating steak…
Conspiracy against me

Saudi Arabia
Finally I am in Saudi Arabia. Haven’t been cheated so often in whole my life, especially by taxi drivers (especially by one in Prague – it ripped me off 2000 krowns to go from train station to airport. According to my calculations it should have been 600 krowns MAX). City looks rich, lots of gasoline…
