Were you born in UK? How's social life in Prague for a foreigner like you? Is language a huge barrier?

Indeed I was born in the UK, so in my case living in the Czech Republic indefinitely doesn't come with any visa hurdles and such.

The fact I don't speak Czech is a very rarely a barrier. Sometimes if I'm in the grocery store and I'm not entirely sure what I'm buying I have to use Google Translate. I struggled once in the post office when trying to mail something internationally. I probably should learn conversational Czech, but I'm more interested in learning Spanish.

The nightlife in Prague is awesome and my social life is ideal.
