About Me

ABOUT ME

I'm friendly guy from middle Europe :) I'm always happy to meet new people from abroad, talk with them and get some new experience from them. I love to travel by train .. I like to take long trips by train ( In 2014 I was in Ukraine - 6000km ) 2016 I did my first Interrail which was 15 000km and with my mom we did by Interrail also about 20 000km in Europe.
I like to listen rock music ( mostly english like Led Zeppelin, U2 .. ) I like to draw and do some relax at home or outside. I also really like hiking .. taking pictures ( I wanna be a profesional photographer once )
Other thing I like is talking in English with anybody! :) I like to go on trip - meet there somebody - totally rebuild the plane I had .. and make a new friend with that "stranger" :) :) So love this kind of meetings :)

PHILOSOPHY

Always smile and dont look back to the things which happened and you cant change them! Be positive as much as you can be!

And my favourite :

Happiness is only real when shared
It takes time to live 😊

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I met Ukrainian people here in Slovakia. I knew them just for few hours - than we were talking a lot on Skype .. and then .. they asked me to come. So I went there just after few weeks of knowing them. And it was most amazing trip. 6000 km by train to Ukraine and back - 6 days at train alone. The experience was just so big!

I traveled just by myself to Slovenia. And went to the south :-) it was awesome experience!

I also traveled around Europe for 30 days. I did 12 000km and spent 200 hours on trains. I loved it and saw really big part of Europe :) Last stop was in Barcelona but I also visited Poland, Germany, Belgium, Luxembourg, Switzerland, Italy, Slovenia, France and Spain :)
I think this is the most amazing thing I have ever done! :)

I traveled from Czech Republic to Poland and back to Slovakia on bike. I did 400km and during this trip I connected all cities where I studied - Opava, Krakow and Kosice

I did 2 big Interrail trips with my mom.
