I am volunteer and lover of culture and traveling from Pilsen - European capital of culture 2015. Until December 2019 I was living for 15 months in Bulgaria like volunteer European Voluntary Service. Now I am back in my home city Pilsen working in a company, which makes projects for transport buildings in the city.
I’m very polite, intelligent and reliable person. Maybe I don't speak much, but if I say something, it has always deep meaning, I don't like to speak about nothing. I like to meet people and talk with them. I have many interests, I like for example travelling, nature, industrial architecture and exploring new places. But mainly I like all kinds of culture - theatre, classical music, visual arts, old cinemas, alternative cultural spaces... and organizing cultural events.
That’s why I became a volunteer in culture in Pilsen. I love volunteer work and I like to go to a foreign workcamps as good way how to travel, meet new people and get know the local culture. And volunteering for one year in Bulgaria was great experience.
But sometimes I would like go somewhere not organized, and I always like it more if I can find somebody to enjoy the time on this place together and Couchsurfing is great tool for it.
I have studied Transportation Systems at the Czech Technical University and I am working on this field right now, but I like also work in culture or nature.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I would like to meet new people and explore with them their culture and interesting places in their home. I would like to find some friends to spend common time in this place and enjoy the trip. I want to see some important monuments, but much more I like hidden places interesting for local people and without tourists. And also I would be happy to show you the same in the place, where I am living.

Books: I like reading books, but usually i have no time. :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I became the volunteer. It’s most amazing thing, because it changed my life. Since then I enjoy volunteer work and I met many new people, found new interests and discovered new places around Europe. And I was living like volunteer in foreign country for more than one year and it was great experience.

Teach, Learn, Share

I live in Pilsen, 4th biggest city in the Czech Republic and very beautiful and interesting place. If I will have time (mostly during weekends), I would be happy to be your guide in Pilsen or in Prague, which is also like my home city (or somewhere else). I can show you or explore with you interesting places or visit with you some cultural events (if you don’t want to go to pubs or clubs - I don't know much about this topic).
I know everything about Czech (and a bit also European) trains and public transport, so I can give you travel tips and recomendations (or some deeper knowledges).
If you are interested in gardening, I can show you my permaculture garden, which is on the very beginning (so not much permaculture yet) and I am also beginner, but I can share my experiences and I would be happy to learn something new.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Lot of travel, culture and mostly volunteer experiences. I travel only by train so I can share with you my experiences and advices about it. I can also show you some basics of Bulgarian embroidery, which I learned short time ago and I really like it. :) I also learned how to cook little bit, so if there would be time, I could try to cook some Czech food.
And of course some little help, if you need. I must always to do something, I don’t like if someone serves me.
