About Me

A part of myself is impulsive and energetic. I love dancing in the rain and spreading good mood around. Following my emotions and spontaneous ideas, I like to follow the natural flow and enjoy everyday life. Another part of myself tends to be quiet and thoughtful. Sometimes I like to get lost to find myself again - traveling and roaming around the world helps me to find who I am. I am a curious person who always likes to learn something new. I love to meet people from all over the world to learn about different cultures, languages, and perspectives.

PHILOSOPHY

Live and let live. Becoming a vegetarian has been one of my best decisions so far. It has brought lots of peacefulness into my life as well.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Although I have no possibility to host anyone at my place at the moment, I would love to meet new interesting and curious people from all over the world. We can meet for a coffee, taste some beer from local breweries, or (if interested in arts) go to an art exhibition together! These are just a few of the things we can do in Prague.

Note: If you are interested in meeting me, please, spend your time by writing me a personal message.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have already met many nice people and discovered many interesting places through couchsurfing. Every experience I have had is just unforgettable and priceless. I have been traveling and doing couchsurfing in many countries so far and I cannot actually imagine traveling without couchsurfing anymore! It is not just a website, it is a way of traveling and exploring the world.

Interests

Traveling, of course. There is probably no need to mention that.

NATURE. I love trees, animals, plants and the feeling of being a part of nature. I have my own herbal garden and I am interested in city gardening projects.

YOGA. I like to bring yoga practice into my daily life.

Food. I am a VEGETARIAN and I love cooking and sharing my enthusiasm for fresh and healthy food. Good energy and passion are one of my best ingredients.

ZERO WASTE. I am trying to reduce my waste to the minimum. Traveling zero waste is one of my greatest challenges at the moment.

FEMINISM. I believe in equality for everyone. The rise of women does not mean the fall of men.

ART. As a student of history of art, I love art - modern and contemporary art especially.

Volunteering. I have done wwoofing (worldwide opportunities on organic farming) in Norway and joined several voluntary projects in the Czech Republic, France, Switzerland and the United Kingdom. It is always so enriching and inspirational.
