About Me

CURRENT MISSION

making use of my talent, skills and experience

ABOUT ME

I have been studying in Perth in Australia for about one year where I met my japanese wife. regarding my appearance I am very very slim. I am stoic since my birth but would like to change. I used to spend my time wildly but since having my own kids , I enjoy being with my family. If you want to know more about me, just come to visit and I'll tell you. I like winter more than summer, the reason why I moved back to Czech from Australia.

PHILOSOPHY

When I meditate I try to forget about everything. If something comes on my mind, I have to let it go away. Now my life has a meaning 'cos Akira was born and my duty and responsibility is to raise him up. Thoughts? I sometimes have a sentiment but it cannot be expressed in words. I believe in what you give you get returned (my cliché)...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I would probably participate by sharing my learnings about CS with more honest people in order to have more members in this community. This helps to put people of different races together and such great idea should be spread worldwide, I think. I will step in this project as actively as I can and see what happens. Be welcome, everyone!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

see the reference section and I hope it stays positive in the future too..

Interests

I am interested in sharing topics, views and ideas with people from the foreign countries. I like slow-paced walking and riding a bike. I probably like things I don't know about yet. And of course I love to travel with my wife and children, from now it is gonna be easier for us, hopefully. I was practising aikido and it was really such a unique experience.

Music, Movies, and Books

I do not read much, anyway I liked the Geisha book because of its true story. however the movie with same name was not so exciting. the book was better in this case. I enjoy watching Kurosawa's movies, especially those black-and-white films have something about one. I like to dance but don't listen to music very often. Favorite movie title - my life without me - is a must see .

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was amazed to see a small dog walking up his front legs on the street, perhaps you could see a similarity in any circus. I treasure my presence at childbirth, this astounding experience had very strong impact on my personality and I think that I would never see anything more crashing in my future. maybe only next delivery could be better than the first one.

Teach, Learn, Share

The thing I want is to learn the foreign language. I wanna have the english conversation in order to improve my linguistic ability. I would introduce you into czech cuisine and food and my wife could give you very detailed idea about traditional japanese dishes. Opportunity to learn is very enriching and I remain as a student until the end of my life.

What I Can Share with Hosts

hospitality, wisdom , friendliness, acknowledgement, joy, poker strategy (it is a joke) and couple of other things which I cannot reveal for the time being..

Countries I’ve Visited

Austria, Croatia, Germany, Italy, Poland, Spain

Countries I’ve Lived In

Australia, Czech Republic, Japan
