About Me

Hello,

I just returned from Sydney after spending 13 amazing years in this multi-cultural city. My "home" country is Czech Republic. After 4 years of running my own business in Sydney, my boyfriend and I decided to go on a once in a life time traveling adventure, which we are currently planning. Last time I was on such an adventure was when I finished my high school and went hitchhiking with a friend to France and Spain! So, new adventure is well overdue!

We are dedicating the next 12 months (starting in September 2016) to visiting Tanzania, where we cant wait to climb Kilimanjaro, followed by Safari (if we survive the climb), then headed to South Africa (so the Great White can dive with us :)), India, visiting Australia en-route before heading to Central and South America. Upon our return, we are planning to settle in Spain.

Both of us are friendly, considered and easy going people who love life, meeting new people and experiencing new cultures and places.

We are very excited about this trip and are looking forward to seeing all these beautiful places as well as meeting some great people along the way!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on Couchsurfing because it is a great concept for travellers which allows to connect with other travellers and share information. Also, the best way to get to know the place is through talking to a local - sorry Google :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Lived in Sydney, Australia for 14 years where I built a successful business from a scratch.

Teach, Learn, Share

I believe "live begins at the end of your comfort zone", hence I love new experiences and being challenged.

Life is a continuous learning curve through which we grow as a person. If you stop learning, you stop living. Nothing is permanent in life and thus I embrace change.

I believe in energies, karma and law of attraction!

What I Can Share with Hosts

- Positive, genuine and light hearted energy
