About Me

I never really know what to write in these things. How do you sum up a person in a few lines?

But anyway, I'll give it a go:

I guess I'm a bit shy and quiet in a larger group, but one on one I love a good chat. And even more so a good debate. On the other hand if I'm a bit drunk then I quite easily blend in with a group.

I love love love music, so going to a local gig - the more underground the better! - would always be at the top of my list. Then I love anything beach related and pretty much all sports (except swimming, obviously).

Not really a big fantasy or comics fan. Nor a rap fan. Not really interested in fancy restaurants or clubs. I would pick a colorful and lively restaurant or pub over the quiet white sheets type any day.

Spent my life travelling back and forth between Czech and Australia so I'm kind of a citizen of both as well as neither. A man stuck between two countries and cultures.

Don't particularly like the classical sight-seeing (large buildings, bridges, statues, etc) unless its's nature, people or animal related. I would rather mingle as much as possible with the locals day and all night and see what the day-dwelling tourists miss.

A perfect day abroad: Walk around the city a little bit, go to the beach and surf/play volleyball/run/whatever, have dinner and a beer on the beach, walk the streets a little and listen to the buskers, go see a local gig, and then it's up to the flow of the night to do with me as it pleases. I am just a passenger.
