We’ll then break down the current real estate market, walk you through the key steps of the buying process, and share what you should (and shouldn’t) be asking when dealing with agents, banks, and sellers. **Why attend:** * Get a realistic view of the Czech property market in 2026 * Understand the full buying process step by step * Learn how to avoid common mistakes when dealing with agents * Ask your questions directly to experienced professionals **Event Schedule** 18:00 - Doors open 18:30-18:50 – Founder intro (Sergei Kavaleryan): the story behind Finaram 18:50-20:00 – Advisor talk (Robin Petrásek): how mortgages work in the Czech Republic 20:00-20:15 – Q&A 20:15-21:00 – Networking time (drinks and snacks provided) **About the Speakers** **Sergei Kavaleryan** is the founder of Finaram, an online mortgage guidance platform built for professionals and expats in the Czech Republic. He created Finaram after seeing how complex and unclear the mortgage process can be, especially for foreigners navigating a new financial system. Before building Finaram, he explored the market from both a user and analytical perspective, identifying key gaps in transparency, accessibility, and user experience. Finaram combines data-driven tools with guidance from licensed advisors to help clients understand their options, estimate affordability, and move through the mortgage process with clarity and structure. His focus is on simplifying decision-making and helping people approach property financing in the Czech Republic with confidence. **Robin Petrásek** is the founder of Expats Finance, a mortgage advisory firm focused exclusively on expats in the Czech Republic. With over 16 years of experience in banking and finance, and more than a decade specializing in expat clients, he has personally helped over 400 foreign buyers successfully secure property financing. His team has arranged more than 2.5 billion CZK in mortgages, with a 100% success rate for clients who moved forward with a purchase. Robin focuses on making complex mortgage rules clear and helping expats navigate the Czech system with confidence. He collaborates with Finaram as a trusted mortgage advisor for expat clients.

There is a wisdom that lives in the sea — in its depth, its movement, its light. In this three-part series, we begin each ceremony with cacao to root into the body, soften, and arrive. From there, breath becomes a doorway into the inner waters — into movement, feeling, release, and deeper contact with what lives within. Each ceremony explores a different quality of the inner ocean: Fluidity — trusting the flow of life Depth — the courage to feel Luminosity — the light beneath the surface You are welcome to join the full journey or come to any ceremony individually. Each session is a complete experience on its own, while also forming part of a deeper unfolding process. DEPTH - This evening is an invitation to reconnect with your emotional depth, meet what is present without avoidance, and access inner strength and resilience. This practice includes intensive breathwork and cacao. It is not suitable for those who are pregnant or have epilepsy, glaucoma, serious heart conditions, severe cardiovascular disease, unmanaged severe hypertension, or acute psychiatric disorders. If you have any health concerns, please reach out in advance so the practice can be adapted safely. If you have food allergies or sensitivities, please also let us know beforehand. When: Thursdays 9/4, 16/4, 23/4 at 19:00 Price: 450 CZK per ceremony / 1100 CZK full cycle via atmaprague@gmail.com

Prague Travel Meetup is a relaxed get-together for people who love traveling and exploring the world. It’s a place to meet like-minded people who understand the urge to pack up, head abroad, and see where the road takes you without a return ticket. The idea is simple: grab a drink, share travel stories, exchange tips, and talk about the places we’ve been and the ones still on our list. It’s also a great way to find people to explore Prague, the Czech Republic, or plan future adventures together. We also have a fun travel quiz prepared for all travel enthusiasts. Let’s see who really knows their countries and who has the fastest fingers! For those who want to go a bit deeper, there is also space for longer, more structured presentations. If you feel like sharing a bigger travel story, an adventure, or a unique experience, let us know and we can schedule time for it. Everyone is welcome: travelers, locals, expats, digital nomads, travel professionals, and anyone curious about the world. Got questions or ideas? Feel free to contact us. We’re always open to suggestions!

We’re heading back above the city. 😁 One night at the rooftop of Dancing House, with views over Prague, good music, and a crowd that always makes these nights worth it. Simple as that. After, we move to Moonclub where a VIP section is reserved for us + 1+1 drinks. What to expect: • Open-air rooftop with city views • DJs playing party hits & dance • Sunset into night atmosphere • Afterparty at Moonclub included (From 11PM after the rooftop party ends) Capacity is limited, so it usually fills up quite fast. You can reserve your spot here 😊 https://connect.boomevents.org/erasmusinprague/dancemoon Co-organised with Erasmus in Prague

This month we bring you a seminar from the host of Prague's famous Cafe Philo, Albert Hoffman, entitled **“Paths in the Wood”**. In this seminar, we'll be exploring **the later writings of Martin Heidegger** where he explores **our relationship to time, connection to place, and the very question of what it means to exist**. The relationship between Heidegger and the Black Forest in south-western Germany, the landscape in which he produced many of his most famous works, was one of intense emotional and intellectual intimacy. From the small, three-room cabin–which he affectionately called "die Hütte”-- **the forest becomes a strong metaphor for a way of thinking that moves more slowly and attentively than the technological mindset of modernity.** Heidegger’s later philosophy shifts away from the technical language of Being and Time toward a more meditative style of thinking. **What does it mean to “dwell”? Why does Heidegger so often write about forests, paths, clearings, and huts? And what might these metaphors reveal about his critique of modern technological society?** Whether you are new to Heidegger or already familiar with his work, join us for a discussion of how philosophy can help us reconsider our relationship to nature, place, and the way we inhabit the world. \*\*\* We’ll have tea and light snacks, but please feel free to bring any drink or snack you’d like to share! This event will be hosted in an apartment with a well-trained dog who will be happy to meet you. If anyone has concerns about dogs, let me know so I can be mindful about keeping her from bothering you. The buzzer is Everett and Mainous—we’re on the 5th floor, apartment 16.

Whether you've never done improv before, or you've done it for so long you knew Del Close on a personal level, or anywhere in between, come join us! Swing by *Gresso's* for the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup** for some fun and games! The idea behind improv is to create entire scenes from scratch based on a suggestion from the audience. This can be done in game form, like *Whose Line Is It Anyway*, *ComedySportz*, or *Wild 'n Out*; it could also be done to tell stories, like *Middleditch and Schwartz*. Our meetup, which is central Ohio's longest running (and free!) weekly comedy event, brings the games (and occasionally different forms) for you to play in a safe, supportive, and compassionate environment. Not only is it a lot of fun, but you get to work on thinking faster on your feet, plus it's an excellent way to meet new people and make friendships that'll last a lifetime! Ask yourself if you want to join the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup**, and say "Yes, And" that you'll have fun!
