you get pickpocketed in Prague whereas for instance in Rio or some american cities you may get mugged...





anyway, just couple of days ago, taking metro line %26quot;c%26quot; at daytime, while i was getting off the carriage as wanting to go to toward the aft of the very same train, i ran into these gypsies at the door. i sensed already then they may have been pickpockets. As i got of i noticed one them take a quick glimpse at my pocket, how funny...



they%26#39;re all the same as they were 15 years ago as far as i remember. gypsies (especially females) hanging around, moving in a group, chattering - for me its a suspicious sign.





fast forward circa 7 mins later, getting off at Muzeum station, seeing two policemen assisting a tourists-like couple. They had run the same metro train and guess what...they were pickpocketed...
