About Me

I am a (life) poet, devoted to art of living, romantic soul seeking the beauty of rotten fruits, a traveler with thumb always ready for another adventure, life philosopher and deep lover, pedagogist, who believes in a great power of education, human rights activist, and barista with 100% Arabica in veins.
I was born while my parents were rebuilding an old house to home and at times when people were fiddling with bunches of keys in their pockets to take them later that year to the streets to unlock the air for Velvet Revolution. I had the great honor to grew up while Václav Havel was building foundations of democracy and my country (Czech Republic) was going through many changes.
By coincidence, I've got to study Pedagogy at Charles University and I wouldn't change. By another coincidence I've started to work as a barista during my studies and I fell in love with coffee beans.
I've hitchhiked, traveled, read Bukowski, volunteered, I've loved and cried, felt happiness, sadness or fear and what I want the most is just TO BE.
