The 1960s brought forward a plethora of neat concepts: color television, 9-1-1 services and even Sharpie markers. In addition to these life-changing inventions are the conventional yet free concepts of Bohemian culture. The word “Bohemian” derives from a region in the Czech Republic named “Bohemia.” The French dubbed the nomadic Gypsies and Romany people “Bohemians.”
