Overview
About Me
daydreamer by day, a thinker by night ✨
Spontaneous, occasionally foolish, and always a fan of wild, adventurous ideas.
I enjoy all kinds of conversations—especially the deep, philosophical ones that appear at 3 a.m., usually accompanied by a glass of red wine.
I want to keep learning new things, discovering new cultures, and meeting people—because the more I travel, the more I realize how beautiful people are all over the world.
Astronomy, a little science, and a touch of philosophy easily capture my attention.
I’d much rather spend an evening in a small local pub with good conversation than in a crowded club.
WARNING, I speak fluent sarcasm.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
To meet other travelers who share the same passion for exploring the world.
I’m curious about people, their dreams, ideas, stories, and the little things that make them who they are.
To broaden my horizons, learn new things, and get a little lost in the unknown from time to time.
And to keep discovering new cultures and countries… because the world is far too interesting to stay in just one corner of it.

Music, Movies, and Books
I have a soft spot for books, especially those with interesting themes—sci-fi, philosophy, and thought-provoking ideas. I also love the old classics, particularly writers like Oscar Wilde and Franz Kafka.
I’m slightly addicted to theatres and independent cinemas.
When it comes to TV series, my heart belongs to Red Dwarf, Black Books, and Doctor Who.
Movies I love include The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, Donnie Darko, Mr. Nobody, Earthman, and Yes Man.
And music! Don't you ever dare to ask me about my Spotify age .))
Johnny Cash ♥, Pink Floyd, Ella Fitzgerald, John Lee Hooker, The Killers, Bob Dylan, Nirvana, and Deep Purple. I’m also a big fan of jazz and live music on the streets.
And when it comes to lullabies, I happily fall asleep to Vivaldi, Beethoven, and Wagner.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Finished a 60-day trip around Asia, including a month on a motorbike I bought from a slightly drunk Dutch gentleman.
Teach, Learn, Share
You only get to live once, so focus on the joyful part of your life and don't ever stop making your dreams come true.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I’m a food lover! I could spend hours talking about cooking, different cuisines, and recipes. Which basically means I can cook for you, or teach you how to cook. .))
I can also prepare some traditional Czech meals.
I’m also a great partner in crime! If you have some crazy idea that no one else wants to try, I’m probably your person.
And if you ever come to Prague, I can be your guide and show you our wonderful city in unexpected ways—hidden gems included. Most importantly, I know exactly where to find the best Czech beer and a good glass of wine.
