S2: Episode 1 - Charlanne from USA

S2: Episode 1 - Charlanne from USA

In this episode of Xuxu, I talk with Charlanne, an American expat who moved to Prague in 2013 and ended up building a whole new life in the Czech Republic. What started as a trip with her dad to Prague turned into a major life change: leaving behind plans to become a police officer in the US, falling in love, staying in Prague, raising a family, and now moving into a tiny house near Olomouc.

Charlanne also shares what surprised her most about Czech society, how she met her Czech husband on Tinder, what giving birth in the Czech Republic was really like, and why she’s trading Prague for village life.

If you’ve ever wondered what it’s really like to move to Prague, start over abroad, or build a life far from where you thought you’d end up, this episode is for you.

In this episode:

  • moving from the US to Prague
  • culture shock in the Czech Republic
  • dating and finding love in Prague
  • expat motherhood
  • giving birth in Czech hospitals
  • learning Czech
  • leaving city life for a tiny house near Prague

Xuxu is a podcast about expat lives, identity, change, and the stories people carry with them in Prague and beyond.
