Petr Šťastný, entrepreneur, graphic designer, artist and translator claims that his most challenging and enjoyable creative project of recent times has been the transcriptions of a clutch of Xenophobe's® Guides into the Czech language.
As a youngster, he enrolled at art college in the expectation that nude models would be provided. His disillusionment wasn't helped by the Soviet invasion so he decided to do a runner. He put on some slippers and was off, running (and stumbling) from one container to the next (an idea later copied by Tom Hanks).
After a brief stop-over in Britain that extended to a couple of decades, he returned to Prague in the hope of getting a refund on his slippers. He is still waiting.
