Marek's Redoing

[Yano]

generally I tend to sleep slightly more and deeper and still feeling more exhausted after gym. Not sure if it's general drop of testosterone or what's the reason, but feeling somewhat weaker this week.

I think we all have ups and downs from time to time like this.

 

[LethalAnimal]

Are you by any chance Czech? Your name is very typical.
Ahoj

My maternal grandmother was Czech and came to the USA when she was a kid. So I guess I'm like 25% Czech lol.

I don't know anything about the culture though

This is a common thing with Americans of Slavic backgrounds. My dad had grandparents from Slavic countries yet didn't know much about it.

 

[LethalAnimal]

My parents are Czech but they immigrated and I was born in the US.

Veselé Vánoce a šťastný Nový rok!

 

[MarekBocanek]

you write nicely and grammar is great. Can you also speak?

Also reacting to CohibaRobusto
I was actually surprised how many Czech and Slovak (and Polish of course as we're relatively close) guys came to the area of Ohio. You just see the names of officers here and there and seriously each second one is something from these nations.

Anyway, anytime you guys want to visit, lemme know happy to introduce you to the culture (not only beer).

It's funny you say that because Ohio is where my dad is from. Ohio along with the parts of Pennsylvania next to Ohio definitely absorbed a lot of the Slavic immigration to the U.S.

That part of the world is definitely on my list of places I want to visit. I'm sure the beer is much better than here hahaha
