I like gentle beauty of the world. I like to discover new places under their surface. I like meeting new people when they have sight sharp enough to get through the banality of things. Sometimes, I find satisfying to immerse my mind into arcane space of mathematic. Sometimes, I just love to dance. Poetry and art make the life more bearable.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

Living in Prague, I've been somewhat annoyed, during past few years, by rapid growth of mindless mass tourism. My mission here is, with my limited forces, to counter this trend. So, if you want to know what’s behind those colorful picturesque facades, I can guide you through the stories and meanings of the monuments, buildings and places, they have for us, who live here. I have absolutely nothing against drinking beer, but I’m rather motivated to meet people who aspire for more than getting a few mugs of cheap bear (it’s also not as cheap as it used to be). I believe in meeting of sensitive people who want, for a while, experience the world from the perspective of other culture.

And when travelling abroad, I believe, someone else will do the same favor for me.
