Hi! My name is Kateřina Chalupová and I am a student of Art management of University of Economics in Prague. I work at DOX, the gallery of the contemporary arts in Prague, as a part time job where I have many opportunities to meet Czech artists such as Marek Schovánek, and also gives me very much needed inspiration for my studies. I also work for two music magazines (both are Czech) Fullmoon and Rock & All as a music photographer which includes photo report from live concerts all over the Czech Republic. Two years ago I studied History at Palacky University in Olomouc so I ´m very interested in history as well. I can be your guide if u like! I would be more than happy to host you. Cheers, Katka! P.S.: Since 23 th August to 30 th September I am on Iceland so It wouldn´t be possible to host you.
