We needed to get some proper nutrition for our first American day, so we headed to the traditional Egg&You Diner. A local rarity is that the owner of the diner has owned it for a respectable 60 years and prepares eggs that would beat even grandma's cooking. You won't believe it, but the local "regulars" respectfully told us that they don't remember a single day when the owner wasn't in the diner.

Our next steps were to a car rental shop, where we rented the only car available at the time, internally called the “ Smurfmobile ” due to its Smurf-themed color.

We spent the rest of the day exploring the area and preparing for the following days full of business meetings. In the evening, we had our first meeting with a Czech entrepreneur in the US, who was also in Forbes. The meeting was more of an introduction over dinner and then at a bar.

Sunday 18. 9. (day three)
What would a trip to the States be without trying an American brunch? A job seekers database typical brunch starts at 11 a.m. and often goes on until late afternoon. We met a number of business people who were discussing business matters at Sunday brunch. We used this time to meet with our American client and discuss the further development of his internet project.

In the evening, we had a barbecue with our friend/client. We tried bison steaks for the first time . Yes, you read that right, we gained quite a bit of weight on the Miami expedition.

Monday 19. 9. (day four)
The early bird continues to jump, and because we want to jump far, we got up in the dark to watch the sunrise . On Monday, we went to get an American SIM card and finalize the details of the planned meetings.

Who did we meet on Monday? For example, a lawyer from the Czech Republic who has lived in Florida for 35 years. Among other things, he gave us valuable advice on local legislation - doing business in America has its own rules, and we were happy to get first-hand information.
