ABOUT ME
I live in Prague and work as a freelance translator so I spend most of my time at home working, that's why I enjoy meeting new people which helps me cope with my workoholic tendencies. My working hours are flexible though, and when I can I take some time off and go travelling. Places I love: Ireland, California, Cambodia...
I also do some work for queer events - Czech film
festival Mezipatra, Prague Pride. And I identify myself as transgender.
I joined couchsurfing because I have already seen enough hostels and hotels and I am a naturally hospitable person too, who likes to talk to new people, show them around and learn new things in return.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I would like to participate in this project, and am ready to provide my couchsurfing guests with maximum comfort, and anyway I love this idea, and I have a family tradition in couchsurfing, because as far as I remember, many people from different countries used to surf on the couches in our family living room.
