CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I'm a human being. And the second thing about me - I'm an artist.

I've thought long and hard why I want to be one. And, well...

What frustrates me the most about this world is the fact that, as human beings, we will never be able to fully understand each other because we can't actually verbalize how we see the world or what's going on on our minds. For me, art is a means of transcending this problem. And even if it doesn't solve the problem in its entirety, it can bring us closer.

So... I take a lot of pictures. I try to bring poetry outside of the world of literature. And besides that, sometimes I wonder what kind of changes we are going through thanks to technology.

PHILOSOPHY

"€œThere is no guide, no teacher, no authority. There is only you - your relationship with others and with the world - there is nothing else. [...] What is important is not a philosophy of life but to observe what is actually taking place in our daily life, inwardly and outwardly."

- Jiddu Krishnamurti, Freedom from the Known

“Few men are gifted with the capacity of seeing; there are fewer still who possess the power of expression."

- Charles Baudelaire, The Painter of Modern Life

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I mostly surf, but I can also guide people through Prague, Bratislava, or Zilina :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

In summer '11 I couchsurfed around Europe (Prague - Berlin - Amsterdam - Brussels - Paris - Cologne - Prague). Those were the best days of my life.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've backpacked through a huge part of western Europe on my own at the age of 18 :)

I'm amazed everytime more than 200 people attend the events I organize (and have been organizing since I was 16 - google BarCamp Zilina) :)

I moved cities on an impulse (after burning out at my former job) and haven't regretted it ever since

Teach, Learn, Share

I know about a lot of cool stuff, mostly art-related.
