About Me

CURRENT MISSION - children growing up

I live with my wife Michaela, kids Roger (2013), David (2015), Angela (2018) and Greg (2020) in the rural area.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We like hosting as much as surfing.
We very like to have guests.
Meeting new people and learning about their lives is great.
Do come and visit us. We can pick you up from a train station.
Hosting is great also because of possibility to put our lazy buttocks outside with guests to the lovely nature we have right behind our house.
We would like to interact with another families with children - our children love someone to play with. Also people without children are sincerely welcomed here.
Our kids can also speak English, we love every opportunity to speak English.
We like to make a breakfast for visitors and pancakes for a dinner :)

We realized that traveling with children is possible and delightful. So we can continue our travel hobby to have fun and meet new interesting people. We can travel even more because of maternity leave. We want to see new places, practice English...
