About Me

I come from Chodsko - one of the 1,000 bizarre ethnic regions of the Czech Republic, where I spent my childhood. Youth I enjoyed under the beautiful Sumava mountains and near the end of puberty and early adulthood, I briefly lived in Prague. It was an annual affair. Ever since I’ve been faithful Olomouc. This city has taken me a total of 6 years of life. During that time I had managed to leave several times because life or work elsewhere. I wandered England, farmed in Norway, built eco-center in Bulgaria, massacred fish in Alaska and tasted divine grapes in Burgundy in France.
You can see, I'm just a normal well balanced easygoing guy who loves life, nature and nice people. I'm tired too much of traveling somewhere and see something. I like to meet the lives of others, foreign nations, their cultures and traditions in different places of the Earth. I always try to be one of the natives. This is not the forte of CouchSurfing. People come and go and for some „reincarnation“ is not much time. I'm not disappointed. At least it can give you the first idea, inspire and kick for action. CS offers great tasting something new and unknown, what brings everyone. Either you say ok, that interests me, or it was nice to meet you, but never again. Brilliant;)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Personally, I have not too much experience with CouchSurfing. As you might guess, I prefer longer stays. But if I have opportunity, I am using CS. More offen I invite guests to me. It's a nice way to get the world to me when I’m unable to travel to the world. For this reason, I appreciate and respect the CS project and its community. I'm trying to take care about my guests as much as I can and to give them something new. The same I expect in return. We donate our time with each other, so responsibly please;) Sometimes it's hard to resist a free bed or if panic "no where to sleep" comes. Ok, I take it. But no jaws, be honest to yourself and me. I can adapt to it. It can happen to anybody sometimes, don't worry:D

Interests

I personally enjoy being outdoors in nature, biking in the mountains or somewhere near water. In the evening I like to sit with friends in a pub and talk rubbish. For us it is always a friendly atmosphere, love to laugh and make fun. I like a lot of black humor and Czech humor. Books, movies, music? Hm, I love Tarantino's movies, hard and heavy and thriller stories. These things make me well...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The whole world doesn't stop to amaze me every day.

Teach, Learn, Share

Now I'm starting a new life, a new job in a new city. You are welcome to share with me the news:D There are still things that do not change. My love for places with soul and history, ancestral traditions and unbridled nature. Do you like it? You can taste it with me. If you are interested in history, I make you over the most spectacular sights. If you prefer nature, I will take you to the most beautiful places in the area - best if you crazy about bikes as I do. If you need a buddy I can take you to the best pubs and bars. If you want everything at once, you'll probably be disappointed - one day, maybe even a week is not enough. But it's a challenge!

What I Can Share with Hosts

What can I get you? Comfortable accommodation in small apartment. We have two couzy rooms. There live me and my girlfriend. You can have one room with a nice bed just for yourself. We have kitchen where you can cook what you think. Please, you are welcome in our kitchen. I love to cook. I can also make Czech cuisine well. Do you want to taste damn good Czech food? I like to show you. But watch out, I like to taste also your exotic foods.

I treat all quite openly, wait any questions, nothing is taboo and everything interests me. In return, not even you do not have to keep anything to yourself and let your experience a reference for others at least. I am looking forward to see you!
