About Me

I like extraordinary way of the travelling such as hitch-hiking and couchsurfing as well, on the other side I don't like that touristic mainstream which re-create the origin culture of the country; althought now being based in really touristic part of Crete island in Greece. It's actually the reason why I kicked on my couchsurfing profile after a while; I wish to meet here with locals and other like-minded people travelling to Crete. Unfortunately it's not possible to host at the base where we are staying atm (me and my girlfriend), but we would love to hang on with others either when travelling around or here at Chersonisos :))

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet some new interesting, shiny and open-mind people from abroad, reach the better level of English and keep it. That's attractive for me to chatting about the differences between the cultures in each other countries, to taste a new cuisines and food, to see the World in the new, different way, to try new activities, visit new places and to enjoy to sharing of nice moments of human being.

Interests

As I said, I like travelling a lot also I like outdoor activities, such as hiking in the mountains, climbing, cycling, slacklining and so. I like to spend my time in active way like a chilling out somewhere outside with friends and enjoying beautiful moments of living. Also I like reading and listening music, I am playing the guitar a bit.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music - everything what is kind of different than a mainstream and have some interesting idea. Old rock classics like Velvet underground, Nirvana, The Who or youngest ones like Muse, Pendulum, Oasis and many others...

Movies - czech old classics, you aren't propably don't have chance to know that. But my favourite director is Milos Forman, famous as well in whole world. And of course, I like Into the wild so much...amaizing story, scenery and sountrack. It's so inspirative...everytime when I am listening Society I want to escape and go somewhere "out" - on the road and into the nature, into the wild.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Surfing in England! Have never tried before this summer. No way, became addicted and totally crazy about! Freedom on the ocean...

I jumped from 10 meters high cliff... it was really challenging for me : )

I tried some via ferrata routes in Austria

I walked Camino de Santigo norte (the Way, coastal way) as a pilgrim, so I walked over fifty days and took around 1000 km. It's really deep personal experience, impacted me (hopefully) for the whole life

Teach, Learn, Share

I can take you on artificial climbing wall to try climbing, also I can show how to do some first steps on slackline : )

I want to try some via-ferrata route, try acroyoga, jump from some cliffs into the ocean and get better in surfing. And almost forget, sailing
