About Me

I am 29 year old geography teacher. Currently I teach geography at Gymnazium Ceska in Bratislava. Surprisingly, so far I like it.

I love travelling, discovering new places, meeting new people. I really like travelling to countries, places that are still unspoiled by money and mass tourism. I am really passionate about travelling and hiking in mountains.

Besides travelling abroad every summer I am also organising "travel evenings" in my former University, where various people are presenting there adventures around the world.

I like many sports, from football, ultimate frisbee, in-line hockey to florbal. Last few years florbal wins.

PHILOSOPHY

- It's not enough to just live. You have to have something to live for.
- If you can dream it, you can do it.
- It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; What is essential is invisible to the eye.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

So far I cannot really provide accomodation, but I will work on that in the future. But I can show you round in Bratislava, or maybe even somewhere else in Slovakia.
