About Me
Right now: back in PRG!
Note (29.02.2024): Hey, I am so sorry, however I won’t be probably able to host you during the spring, trying to finish my PhD and these days are pretty busy for me, so don’t have much time for CS. And to be honest, I am also somewhere else with my thoughts, so often even forget to reply…, sorry. However, If you won’t find anybody else you can still try to contact me, but please be patient with me..🙈

Hi,
I am a Ph.D. candidate (hopefully finished in near future) at the University of Chemistry and Technology in Prague. So my work is mostly dedicated to chemistry, physics and science in general. I am working at the Department of Physics and Measurement in the Sensor Group which aims to develop new chemical gas sensors.
Thanks to my job, I was lucky to have had opportunities to see different parts of the world and I fell in love with travelling, meeting new people and sharing experiences.
I heard about CS a few years ago, but only recently have I rediscovered it thanks to my friend.
Just recently I also fell in love with photography...

Regarding hosting:
update 17.10.23:
- Haven’t realized there’ll be so many requests for hosting. If I don’t reply in two days, please contact me again, cause I am probably lost somewhere in the middle of the answer…
- if you are visiting PRG definitely check this YT channel:

I am still pretty new to the Couchsurfing community, especially in terms of hosting. However, I had a wonderful experience through Couchsurfing during my stay in Japan, which inspired me to give back to the traveling community by becoming a host.
Please feel free to reach out to me for hosting, but I recommend contacting me in advance because I'm often out of the city and maintain a fairly tight schedule.
During workdays, I have to go to my job, so I will most likely be able to host you overnight, but you will be on your own during the day. Additionally, I only have one key, so despite my best efforts, it might be a bit inconvenient for you on working days.
I also prefer if you have a completed profile and provide some information about yourself and the purpose of your travels. This helps me get to know you at least a little bit before deciding whether I can host you or not. 😊
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
