About Me

Just returned to my hometown after a couple of months of travelling. Working as a freelance writer, travel journalist and graphic designer. The generosity of wonderful people I met inspired me to open my house for couchsurfers. :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new friends! Travelling like a local is the best way to experience a new culture and get to know many great people.

Interests

I love spending time with my friends, good conversation and laughing. I really enjoy alternative way of travelling: backpacking, hiking, hitchhiking, meeting new people. I'm very fond of anything related to fine arts and music.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Camino de Santiago. Spending 800 km walking by myself was an amazing life-changing experience, which I highly recommend to everyone.

This year I've also done Everest Base Camp trek in Nepal, bloody difficult, but incredible experience!
Recently I came back from hitchhiking trip from the Czech Republic to Portugal with my friend and was impressed by kindness of people.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to play guitar and ukulele or play for you. Maybe I will bring the ukulele with me for my upcoming travels!
Also, I am good in any artistic stuff (graphic design, photography, drawing etc.).
If there is time, I can cook for you some typical Czech dish. I enjoy learning how to prepare new dishes!
I can teach you Czech, English, Spanish or basics of Portuguese, Chinese etc. I'm open to learn new languages.
