Are traveller's checks really necessary? What sort of situation would merit their use?

Going to Prague on Monday, staying for two nights. There'll be about 7 of us altogether going, half are Americans, the other half Austrians. My boss at my internship told me that Czechs hate Germans and the German language, and proceeded to tell me a story of how he and his friend didn't get served at this restaurant in Prague one time. Does this hostility still exist today? Maybe we should all stick with speaking English while we're there? Also, recommend things to do and see, 'specially with night life.

Just keep away from the lower-class Turks. I got in a "rauferei" with a pair of them walking back from a club in the 6th district a couple weeks ago. Also saw a guy (a Turk) get stabbed at Westbahnhof last November.

Fists Up posted:Ive been checked multiple times going Spain > France and Italy > France I was checked on an ÖBB train by German police going from Austria into Germany (Bavaria) last February. I was kind of confused by it, because you know, Schengen. I asked if something had happened, and the one officer just replied back, "Routine."

Hi all, I have a 20-hour layover in Helsinki on April 13. Could I get a hostel recommendation within walking distance of obvious things to see in Helsinki? I'll be landing at like 11 at night, and plane leaves at around 7 p.m. the next day. Enlightenment on "obvious things to see" also appreciated.

Ras Het posted:The obvious things are probably the cathedral and the area around and to the south of it, and the Suomenlinna fortress a 15min ferry trip away out to the sea. So a hostel between the central railway station and Kauppatori would be good for you, but I don't know about them. Waci posted:I've heard positive things about The Yard and Diana Park, both of which are very in the middle of everything. Thanks to both of you.

^^^ guy above me, definitely get a tour of the Rock of Gibraltar. And a day trip to Tangier Morocco is totally doable.

I'm headed to Bozen for 3 days during the second week of April on vacation with a couple friends and was just about to throw a line into this thread. I was wondering if there are any WWI sites around there, like old bunkers in the hills? And of course I need to see old Ötzi.
