Road trip with my girlfriend around Andalusia

ABOUT ME

It's quite difficult for me to try describe myself for you however I'll try it :-)

I grew up in the countryside near Brno - the second largest city in Czech Republic, the heart of Europe. I was living in Leeds, UK during the years 2014-2015 together with my girlfriend Marketa, we were traveling a lot around(Peak District, Lake District, east coast, biketrip in Scotland). Last year we spent wonderful 6 weeks in the Southeast Asia.

Traveling is my biggest hobby (or better - a drug) is traveling thanks it I can open more eyes and get close view to this world, meet interesting people, discuss with them and know different cultures. I used to travel every summer across Europe by train with Interrail ticket. My best holiday ever was the 75 days USA roadtrip in 2009.

I'm also interesting about history (especcialy new age) and my biggest wish was to study the international relationships where I was trying to get for 3 years when I terminated University of Arts. I was working in telecommunication company for 4 years, then in the hotel industry in UK. Now I'm back in Czech Republic and working for an air tickets travel company.

I enjoy delicious meals, cook them (because there is always something to improve), outdoor expeditions, cycling, photography, watching interesting movies, planing holidays and trips, playing basketball and guitar and go to the beer with my friends.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is like a chocolate, you never know what you taste.
