About Me

Adventurous, curious, sarcastic student from the Czech republic doing his master in quantitative finance in Vienna and part time working in Trading department in a bank. Non- religious and straight but tolerant and open-minded. Even though most of my good friends are (quite) extroverted I would say that I'm an introvert 😄

Besides having a cute dog I have a great collection of stories from my adventurous trips around the world. If you are into sport,just like me, let's do some sport together. If not, let's explore together the local area or visit your favorite places!

I have just finished my exchange semester in Russia. Currently, I am studying in Austria. In my free time, I like to do fitness, lead a healthy lifestyle with an occasional partying, investing and personal finance, travelling ,hiking as well as learning foreign languages. I started to travel few years ago to meet different cultures and people, see cool places and get out of my comfort zone. It also helped me to start appreciating things that I used to take for granted. Mostly I do backpacking/hitchhiking/couchsurfing either alone, with some friends or with other Couchsurfers who I meet during my journey. I enjoy exploring places which are off the beaten track as well as tasting local food and getting familiar with the life of locals.

I live together with my family in a small village close to the city Pardubice (Czech republic) Not many tourists come here as there is not much to see but if you are one of them let me know and I ll be happy to host or show around if I happen to be at home.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To make friends from all around the world as well as to get familiar with the culture by seeing the real life of local people. To have unforgettable experience. So far, I had some funny, nice, as well as weird experience with Couchsurfing 😄

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

backpacking in Iran for one month, learning how to ride a motorcycle in Vietnam, trying to convince the border guards in Israel that I am not a terrorist, living in China for 6 months, doing Airbnb in a Palestinian refugee camp, hitchhiking in Morocco, getting successfully away from a bribe to a border guard at Kyrgyz - Kazakh border, one year study exchange in Germany, learning how to dance with locals in a public park in Hanoi (still bad though), watching the rising sun above the Angkor Wat temples somewhere in Cambodian jungle
