CURRENT MISSION

Travel to Sweden & to Australia. The first one is inhabited by Alexander Skarsgard alikes, the second one by laid back tanned hipsterish Chris Hemsworths. I`m sure.

ABOUT ME

I was always extremely bad at describing myself - either the picture is too blurred or just too bright excellent, which obviously can not be true.

Since I want to get rid of clichés, I will not write that I love meeting new people. Why would I be on Couchsurfing otherwise, right. I am a typical example of someone in active search of her place in the life. I have degree in journalism (which most journalists see as an absolutely awkward thing) and now am starting in the field of graphic design. My plans for future are absolutely brilliant and therefore might be that unrealistic. Time will show. I will definitely like to travel, study and live abroad. And yep, just as I said in my mission, currently I am kind of obsessed with idea that if I come to Stockholm, all the guys will be tall blonde Vikings. And yeah, I know how stupid that sounds. But I will keep it here until I really get to that city and meet a bunch of hobbits. Same for Australia.

PHILOSOPHY

Trying to get myself to be a consistent, self-confident being. That`s not really a philosophy, but I guess it is a way to get one. If something is really my philosophy, that it`s that I am never officious. At the same time I do work in advertising. We can talk about how this could ever work.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I do host on my tiny little couch. Till now a lot of people managed sleeping on that thing so I guess it is not so tiny after all (it`s an IKEA Ektorp for two, you can go try laying down on it at your local store).

If I have time, I like to show people round Prague - but careful here, I am no good touristic guide. Most of the time I will take you to some places like openairs, bars, restaurants or galleries which I really enjoy which means they have nothing to do with the tourist`s must-see list.

Music >>Only Lovers Left Alive by Jarmusch is the best movie ever, fullstop.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Lately I fought my fear and decided to be crazy when I feel like. So I jumped about 6 metres from a bridge down to the Rhone river in Switzerland. And went on a trek bike trip on single trek. Amazing, amazing and amazing. In love with adrenaline.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can talk to you in English, Czech or Russian. In last two I am native. I can teach how to play percussions (a little).
I would enjoy meeting designers, photographers, filmmakers, journalists, actors, musicians, Viking-looking Swedes, Aussies - am nursing an idea of moving over there - and all the people who can share something interesting.
