About Me

CURRENT MISSION

After one year of studying in Belgium and 2,5 years spent in amazing Budapest, I've moved to Prague for some time. I would like to try how it feels to meet and host foreigners, this time in the role of a local.

ABOUT ME

I think I'm a very friendly and easy-going person. I have two enemies, though. Stereotype and boredom, which also explains my pretty adventurous and enterprising character.

I like to meet new people, get to know their cultures, countries...you know I guess the same for everybody here :-D.
Well, all in all..... I've been just trying not to make my life boring...

PHILOSOPHY

Dare something worthy!
I believe everyone is responsible for their life and it's up to you if you live your life or other people's life.
From my own experience, I can tell you that life can be shorter than you may even realize......so don't waste your time dealing with crap and don't postpone things for later!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Since (vey sadly) Couchsurfing is going to die soon, you can also contact me via my blogsite.

Hosting in Prague is a bit more complicated as not many people live on their own due to high prices of real estate. I'm lucky to have a flat in the center though, where another sofa, or sometimes even a whole room, awaits nice travelers.

I also run a group for hikes and trips around Prague and Czechia so feel free to join.

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I started to use this webpage when I moved to Budapest and found out that this page is one of the best ideas someone ever came up with. I've participated in several meetups, events and made new friends. I also host people from time to time, because this is a good way to get to know people from all around the world! ;-)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I participated in some meetings and events, made some trips, hosted a few people and already made a lot of friends.

Interests

I'm a passionate traveler and music lover. I spend lots of my time in nature by doing various activities, such as hiking, bike riding, jogging or simply walking and meditating. I love to travel and get to know new people. I like to write blogs and in my other "free time" I deal with online marketing and read books.

I want to travel the world!

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm addicted to music! What type it is you can usually recognize pretty fast....:-)

Mostly books about personal and spiritual development.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went on Erasmus to Belgium. Simple as that. It's probably stay the greatest thing I've ever done and I'm grateful for that. Not because I had one of the best times in my life, but above all because it totally opened my eyes. I've changed a lot since then - the way I think, the way I see the world, people and my life!

I took my retired dad on holiday to Norway. He got his dream fulfilled!

Teach, Learn, Share

Well, I don't know exactly but I guess everybody has something to share or teach ;-)

What I Can Share with Hosts

Besides tip for Prague, Budapest and traveling in general, I have lots of experiences to share.
