The Czech Republic’s central location in Europe makes it an ideal base for traveling to other countries in the region, such as Austria, Germany, Poland, and Slovakia. I haven’t lived in the Czech Republic, but I traveled there for a few days. English is widely spoken in the Czech Republic, and the country ranks 23rd in the world in English proficiency. This means that English-speaking kids will find it easy to get along in the Czech Republic, but the Czech language is a bit difficult to learn.
