I'm back to share with you more adventures, more trips, more stories of 2011 - of course everything strictly NO SHOES related! ;))
There are also some upcoming news like the blog name changement, but it'll take some time - stay tuned!
Well, so what's going on? We've just come back from London!
A wonderful city deserves some wonderful no shoes teasing! Well, actually that wasn't my point, I just felt like finaly trying to hit the road barefoot, for the first time in this 2011 spring.. and it was a success!
London, Trafalgar Square, early spring afternoon.
The sun was shining and I could finally take off my shoes, what a relief!
A few minutes later I stopped by to see some street performer (he wasn't particulary good, but quite funny). A young English man standing next to me was probably deeply impressed to see me - a question came almost immediately:
"What happened with your shoes?!?"
"Aaaah, they are over there, I'm just relaxing my feet a bit. :)"
"That's a strange way to relax!!"
(Maybe I should add a little description so you can picture the situation: he was well dressed, as almost every English man, including apparently pretty expensive very shining brown leather shoes. I'd say from the latest fashion collection, but I can not be sure (since I don't care about either shoes or fashion). "Actually it's very pleasant, really!"
Suspicious, but interested look. I've probably "inserted a bug to his head", as we Czechs say."Where are you from by the way?"
"Czech republic."
"Oh."
And that was the end of our "very sophisticated" conversation.I'm quite sure I turned his way of thinking upside down... or maybe he just thought I went completely crazy, who knows.
I continued watching the performance and when I turned he was gone. He didn't even say goodbye! And I thought English men are well educated... Maybe this rule doesn't apply to barefoot people, hahaha! :)
What about your first spring walks? Any interesting stories?
Feel free to comment and don't forget to enjoy your life barefooting! :)
