ABOUT ME
It's really hard to describe myself, since I tend to be a different person under different circumstances, depending on other people's reaction and hospitality :). I'm a great listener and I feel much better in one-to-one conversation, but I'm definitely not quiet among my friends or people I feel welcome with :). I'm a typical Czech girl and I love a good beer, especially the Czech one ;-), and as my friends say, I'm always having alcohol in my hands whenever someone takes a picture of me :-D, but those are vacation photos only, I drink very little in Norway since I'm working most of the time, so don't worry, I'm not a drunk :)
PHILOSOPHY
Don't live in a dream, start living it
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I've surfed in Helsinki and Iceland so far and I had an amazing time with my hosts. Since I have moved to England and share living with non CS people, I'm not hosting at the moment. But I would be happy to make new friends in London so I can be your guide or sparing partner or just someone to hang out for coffee :).

I love music, I used to sing in a choir at high school, I play the piano and I'm going to start playing the guitar again :)
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I love Norway, and I've just done my first mini expedition on snowshoes with a backpack, sleeping in the middle of a mountain plateau in a tent in -11, that was an amazing experience!
Hitch-hiking from Czech Republic to Norway and back was a great adventure, it took me and my friend almost 5 days to get there, but it was worth it :). One of the craziest things I've done is probably canoeing in December, the river was half-frozen as it was -12 degrees outside and by accident we ended up bathing in the river :)
