Puhoi resident, Barbara Straka, visits her
Czech Republic origins
Czech News writer,
Nad'a Strakove ,

speaking no Czech, her search for family roots and possibly some living
relatives in the Czech Republic reminded of the adventures once experienced

unfamiliar, yet interesting," says Barbara, whose great-grandfather
emigrated from western Bohemia to New Zealand in 1863. |
