About Me

I'm talkative, creative, easy-going, usually kinda goofy :), always singing, writing songs, dancing or doing yoga or some graphic design
OH! And I'm probably the biggest food enthusiast you've ever met. And I'm vegan.

I adore tollerant, open-minded people, who at least try to understand and see things in a new way.

UPDATE 08/2018: This year I've been staying with my husband at his parents' flat so my sincerest apologies to everyone but I have no chance accommodating you guys at the moment :/ We're on our way to build our own house so there's hope in the future :) thanks for understanding!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Most of my travels include dancing or yoga in some way. That's actually why I started to travel, to get the opportunity to learn something new and grow. But travelling itself and talking to new people, listening to their stories, seeing new places and getting new experience, all that is so fascinating and inspiring that it has also become a big Why.

Music, Movies, and Books

All kinds of music, mostly indie, rock, hard-rock or metal for listening but definitely hiphop and electronical music for dancing. I love experimental hiphop and poppin the most but also dancehall and contemporary (although I'm still a beginner in those :) ).
As for books, I love fantasy books and series (such as Warded Man, the Name of the Wind, even Harry Potter, I admit :)), non-fiction or philosophical too (about yoga, buddhism, psychology, veganism..). Richard Bach is one of my favourites for sure.
I watch an incredible amount of movies and series, don't get me started on those... :D I love literally all kinds of films from horrors to romantic comedies and documentaries.. ok some of my favourites: Donnie Darko, Pulp Fiction, Amelie, Shining, Requiem for a Dream, the Green Mile, everything by Darren Aronofsky and Christopher Nolan.. oh, and Star Wars :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Going to LA for two amazing months of dancing, travelling and discovering myself. And then, two years later, going there again for 3 months and completing a Yoga Teacher Training there. And then, one more year later, coming back for 1 more month just for the fun of it :D

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm up for any language skills exchange, board games, dance or music sessions, jogging, yoga or any other sports, cooking or baking together. Ooh, how I love sharing recipes :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can definitely share some nice Czech words, yoga postures or dance steps!
