Emily in…Prague? 🇨🇿✨ Read on for our Czech-ified rendition of the Netflix show 👇
Our protagonist Emily appears to live an eye-rollingly affluent lifestyle, so we have no doubt she’d find an apartment in one of the world’s ‘coolest neighborhoods’ and Prague’s highly sought-after district – Vinohrady. And her morning run destination? Swap out Sacré-Cœur for Riegrovy sady.
With Emily’s grating pronunciation of “mer-ci” and “bon-soir”, can you imagine her trying to wrap her tongue around “děkuju”? This year Czech was ranked the 8th most challenging language for English speakers to learn, and Czechia the second-hardest country in the world to live in without speaking the local language.
The marketing agency Emily works for in Prague might be located in the office district of Karlín, or – if it’s really pulling in the top luxury clients – the prestigious Pařížská Street, where it would be flanked by Gucci, Dior, and Bottega storefronts.
Emily’s brusque but endearing boss Sylvie – in this case perhaps a Markéta or Eva – may have a less hands-on, less domineering approach.
She’s fawned over croissants, donuts, Kir Royale, and Gabriel’s Michelin star food, but would Emily be so enamored with the fare the Czech Republic has to offer? Though they’re not actually of Czech origin, it’s easy to imagine Emily stopping for selfies in front of the trdelník stalls in Old Town Square during the winter months, or posing with a rohlík rather than a croissant.
What else can you envisage for Emily in Prague?
