PanoramaProtiMysl – a blog dedicated to the latest trends in the Czech Republic
When Barbora Jarešová, the head of marketing at a Prague global real
estate services firm, started blogging about cool places, hip design and
trendy restaurants in the Czech Republic, it was mostly for her own
pleasure and to inform close friends of what’s happening in Prague and
other Czech cities. On her website, ProtiMysl, readers can see gorgeous
photographs of little-known and unique locations – and to many
foreigners, it comes as quite a surprise that there is more to Prague than
dumplings, beer and art nouveau buildings. Barbora talkedabout what she
would like to change about the country’s reputation, what reactions to
the blog have been like so far and about her time spent abroad. More

has two jobs: running the Prague office of the hip New York-based magazine
and website Vice; and offering digitalisation services to Czech media
outlets and authors keen to enter the age of e-readers. More
One on OneRachel Kanarowski – at just 30, editor of a major glossy magazine
Rachel Kanarowski has the kind of job that must make her the absolute envy
of her peers. At only 30, she is the editor-in-chief of the Czech version
of InStyle, a major international women’s magazine. At the magazine’s
