About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Having finished my bachelor studies and starting a masters in September,I'd like to see what the world has to offer before I take that step! Besides that, I'd like to rediscover my old passions such as playing the saxophone, guitar, singing, tennis, arts and crafts. To top it off I'd really like to become fluent in Dutch and learn more practical skills!

Currently I'd really like to get to know the Balkans, namely Bulgaria, Macedonia and Albania with my travel buddy Brian Peterson ( see my couchsurfing friends!) It would be great if our host could make our trip local as possible! I'm interested in historical cities, typical meals, customs, hiking- basically anything that you would be willing to share with me and my travel buddy!

ABOUT ME

People would probably say that I am very energetic with a strong international spirit! I love trying out new things and meeting new people on the way. I'm also down to basically any crazy idea you can think of! I am originally Czech but I am currently trying to blend in the Netherlands!

PHILOSOPHY

Never stop learning as there is always something round the corner that will definitely surprise you!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have very little experience with CS but I have unexpectedly hosted many people of this world :) Also a lot of my friends have had positive experiences so why not?!

Interests

I enjoy spending a lot of time on my bike as that is currently my job! In my spare time I usually attempt to start learning new languages ( my last attempt was Russian, but as I am currently living in the Netherlands Dutch is my priority). I mustn't forget my greatest drive in life which is learning about new cultures and meeting new people. Mmmm and I definitely shouldn't forget my love towards food haha. I studied linguistics and psychology which are both one of my greatest passions!

One thing you should definitely know is that I never sit still! Hanging out with me is always a little bit of an adventure as you never know what you get yourself into!
