So I was pretty exhausted upon my Prague arrival, and I told myself that it was truly okay to do absolutely nothing for a day. As it turned out, though, my flights landed me in town a little earlier than the Airbnb was prepared for. The owners let me drop off my bags (thank goodness), but the cleaning lady was still working hard so I had to make myself busy elsewhere for a couple of hours.
Peter, one of the owners and the person who met me at the door with my new key, saw how tired I was and decided to drive me around the area until we found the perfect bakery in which I could set up shop. Not only did I get my first great breakfast in a while, but the staff were incredibly friendly! One of the guys behind the counter even lent me his iPhone cord as my phone was dead. (The difference in stranger interactions between Prague and Budapest is palpable.)
