New year, new project for the blog:
A podcast series about people and life in the Czech Republic and maybe even beyond. The ins-outs-ups-downs of taking that leap to move abroad. The beautiful, comical, instructive, unexpected twists and turns and life lessons/gifts that come about as a result.
My first interviewee: Lee Davison, an American Jazz singer I met when I first arrived in Prague in 2006. The interview was a hoot for me, as you'll hear.
It was a broad chat that touched on his early days in the Czech Republic as a Jazz singer; the creative hustle--art or money?; his on-screen appearance in the Bond flick, Casino Royale; the allure of Czech women; where he calls home; and living his life dream.
I hope you enjoy, and please leave feedback.
Cauky!
