About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Bike-packing around the world on my folding bike. The life and adventure unfolds :-) http://www.adamonthego.org

ABOUT ME

I am a guy from nice little ski resort town of Jesenik in Czech Republic. At the age of 19 i started to travel and settled for a while in Ireland as my new homeland. After few years I got bored with routine of day to day work in office environment and decided to do what I've always wanted - travel the world so I did it in 2011 and 2012 and now i am taking a recovery break back in Ireland before I head for another adventure.

PHILOSOPHY

If you want something in life, reach out and grab it.
Look for solution, not for excuses.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Met many people on my travels that helped me to get by, provided necessaary guidance and provided shelter when needed, some of them are my best friends till today so now i am ready to repay my debt to society... genuine couchsurfers are welcome!
