About Me

I live in Prague, Czechia Republic, I translate, tour guide, do a bit of research in literary history.

I've lived in several European countries and travelled around Europe as much as I could. I try to keep it up.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love travel. I like to listen and talk. Makes sense.

Interests

Art. Food. Theatre. Rock climbing. Travel. Languages.

Places I'm looking for when in a new city: bakeries, churches, cafés, galleries, markets, museums, restaurants, confectioneries, second-hand bookshops.

Music, Movies, and Books

From baroque opera to techno through to rap in languages I don't even understand.

Poetry, medieval and a bit of modern too.

Theatre. Love theatre.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Have translated a couple theatre plays which got put on. I love to bring people culture from across the world.

Travelwise: I went into Carlsbad Caverns, a humongous cave complex in New Mexico. Incredible.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to teach and learn languages. I've been teaching English since I was 16, also taught some Czech and French. If you speak to me in your own tongue, I'll be really happy.

I'm an apprentice climber. Take me to your local climbing gym?

I guide people around Prague and can point you to spots that you might miss otherwise. I like to learn about less frequented spots in other cities, too.

I cook and learn!

I'm a historian and reader by education. If you somehow like to talk medieval literature, I'm your person.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Enthusiasm: Whatever you throw at me I might end up liking, whether it's a local punk band or a type of pastry.

Empathy: I do care about what people feel, think and say. That's one of the reasons I like teaching, chatting and theatre. Whether you want to hear news from Prague or feel like showing me my couch and going to sleep, it's all fine with me.
