Overview
About Me
I am fun loving, new cultural experience seeking, friendly girl from Prague, Czech Repubic.
I love traveling. It gives me the opportunity to meet new people, new cultures, which then introduce me to new perspectives on life in gerenal. I like to try new things and I am eager to learn. I know that outside of my "territory", there are many possibilities how to improve and enrich my way of life. I try to keep out from boredom and routine.
I work as a teacher because I like to work with children, share my knowledge and be open to learn from them as well.
My goal is to lead my life with positive attitude, learn how to find beauty in ugliness, live in the moment.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I am here, so I could meet new people, travel in the best possible way imaginable, surrounded with local people, having a good time with them and making unforgetable memories.

What I Can Share with Hosts
I am very modest, I am used to almost every living condition, I can sleep anywhere and I can eat almost everything. I like fun, so I am trying to be funny, and most people so far liked it :) I am also a bit introvert sometimes, so don't worry about me always talking and wanting to hang out. I try to as selfsuficient as I can, but I do not mind company.
