Overview
About Me
If I should find a one single word, that would be a wanderer! Wandering the cities, mountains, images and all over the places in between them. Sometimes staying at one place, at the moment living in Prague, Czech Republic. Sometimes travelling around the world, at the moment converting a van before I start some new travelling adventure.
Since I finished my studies I have worked with various film productions, helping them with film promotion, film festivals and distribution. Currently the most time I dedicate to an international streaming platform for documentary films.
I cannot live without good coffee, films and music!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Travelling to me is not about collecting places, but about sharing. Learning about different cultures, meeting new people and listening their stories. I've already had so many great experiences here which I believe it wouldn't happened without CS.
Interests
I love films, but since I work with them all the time, I try balance it with escaping to nature. Really love just to pack my stuff and just go out for a multi-day hike. Most probably in the mountains, with some book or my kindle. Sometimes carrying also my camera as just capturing world in images is really relaxing.
I also started to play guitar, my current goal is to play Blackbird and sing at the same time...let's see.
When in cities during my travels, I love to go to old one screen cinemas or cinematheques. Let me know if you know some good one.

Music, Movies, and Books
Not easy one. We could speak about it the whole night drinking a glass of good wine or good beer.
A few directors: Wim Wenders, Jim Jarmusch, Woody Allen, Wes Anderson, Luis Bunuel, David Lynch, Jan Svankmajer, Denis Cote, Paolo Sorrentino, Yorgos Lanthimos,...
A few titles from past years: The Shoplifters, Embrace of the Serpent, Ghost Town Anthology, The Great Beauty, Only Lovers Left Alive,...
From music basically anything. Just a few artists which come to my mind: Gregory Porter, Tame Impala, Everything Everything, Florence & The Machine, Fleet Foxes, The National, Arcade Fire, Four Tet, Django Django, Gary Clark Jr., Björk + all 60's classics
But I totally adore live music, after one year of pandemic I would sell my kidney to go for a concert!
From books just a few names: Francis Scott Fitzgerald, John Steinbeck, Charles Dickens, Franz Kafka or Karel Capek.
