    YOUR O.A.T. ADVENTURE TRAVEL PLANNING GUIDE® Jewels of Bohemia: Czech Republic, Slovakia & Hungary 2022 Small Groups: 8-16 travelers—guaranteed! (average of 13) Overseas Adventure Travel ® The Leader in Personalized Small Group Adventures on the Road Less Traveled 1 Dear Traveler, At last, the world is opening up again for curious travel lovers like you and me. And the O.A.T. Jewels of Bohemia: Czech Republic, Slovakia & Hungary itinerary you’ve expressed interest in will be a wonderful way to resume the discoveries that bring us so much joy. You might soon be enjoying standout moments like these: In my mind, there is nothing more quaint and picturesque than the rural villages that dot the countryside of the Czech Republic. To immerse myself in their traditions and everyday life, I explore rural communities like Slavonice, a small village nestled on the border with Austria. You’ll see what I mean when you experience A Day in the Life of a small, family-run farm here, where you’ll have the opportunity to meet the owners, lend a hand with the daily farm chores, and share a Home-Hosted Lunch with your hosts around the warmth of a bonfire. I believe the most moving stories you’ll hear are from the locals who live and work in the regions you travel to around the world, and that is what I found to be true in Prague when I spoke with Zdenek Vacek, a local teacher and lifelong Prague resident, about the Velvet Revolution. I was saddened to hear the reality of their turbulent past under the Czech Communist regime.

  • Bucharest Barks: Street Dogs, Urban Lifestyle Aspirations, and the Non-Civilized City
    Bucharest Barks: Street Dogs, Urban Lifestyle Aspirations, and the Non-Civilized City by Lavrentia Karamaniola A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Anthropology) in the University of Michigan 2017 Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor Krisztina E. Fehérváry, Co-Chair Professor Alaina M. Lemon, Co-Chair Professor Liviu Chelcea, University of Bucharest Associate Professor Matthew S. Hull Professor Robin M. Queen “The gods had condemned Sisyphus to ceaselessly rolling a rock to the top of a mountain, whence the stone would fall back of its own weight. They had thought with some reason that there is no more dreadful punishment than futile and hopeless labor.” “I leave Sisyphus at the foot of the mountain! One always finds one's burden again. But Sisyphus teaches the higher fidelity that negates the gods and raises rocks. He too concludes that all is well. This universe henceforth without a master seems to him neither sterile nor futile. Each atom of that stone, each mineral flake of that night filled mountain, in itself forms a world. The struggle itself toward the heights is enough to fill a man's heart. One must imagine Sisyphus happy.” Extracts from “Sisyphus Myth” (1942) by Albert Camus (1913–1960) Sisyphus by Titian (1490–1567) 1548–1549.

  • Pizza and Bagels in Books! What Could Be Better? These Books Are a Great Addition to Your Bagel Bites Book Night Theme
    BagelBitesPDFsV2.qxd:BagelBitesPDFs 8/28/08 5:29 PM Page 8 ne of the important jobs O you do every day is to help your children develop healthy eating habits during meals and snacks. The choices you offer on a regular basis make a big impact on the habits your children develop. Nutrition experts tell us that because young stomachs are small, children can’t always get the nutrients they need in a day through meals alone. They need smaller portions of food more often. Similarly, educators tell us that children need more opportunities to read every day to feed their growing minds. That’s why Bagel Bites® brand and Scholastic have teamed up to create an exciting program that encourages children and their families to enjoy books and Bagel Bites® snacks together! The following pages offer some background and nutritional information about Bagel Bites, tips for smart snacking, and ideas for hosting Bagel Bites Book Nights at home with family and friends.
