First time in the Czech Republic

What unique experiences in the Czech Republic? I felt so privileged to see the Czech president and one of the most famous Czech singers, even though it was my first time visiting this beautiful country. Big shout out to Lucie Bila for such a sophisticated handmade accessory. Thanks, Meltingpot forum, for having me speak and participate in the workshop in Ostrava.

Our music brings everyone to the center of well-being. Ideas without borders!
