About Me

I'm currently (till June 2018) on my ERASMUS in Cardiff, so I can't host anyone, fellaz :(

CURRENT MISSION

To keep learning...

ABOUT ME

I'm a law student, ambitious, open-minded and eager to learn. I seek challenges, which strenghten my spirit.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe we only have one life to live, so we need to get the most of it. Every idle second is a frightfully wasted second.
Everybody's different and there is no need to pursue mainstream goals if you don't believe in them.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

In my opinion, there is a big gap between traveling and nowaday's tourism. I don't like shopping, taking pictures with landmarks and souvenirs. I want to merge with the city, to be within it. Discuss politics in underground café, hear out the thoughts of the people, get lost in the narrow streets, bath in the city's sunset, hike in the moutains and feel the humidity of the soil. This and more than that. Good couchsurfing hosts offer this to me and I try to offer it back.

During the school year I'm way too busy to host anyone. But I'm really trying to compensate by hosting in the summer and I also guide some of you in the city from time to time :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Have been hosted many times in Norway and Spain. I host people here in Prague from time to time.

Interests

Where do I start? For me, there is one huge, divisible area of interest. It's called personal development (one would say kalokagathia), which you can divide into studying, working, exploring, running and stuff like that... In general I'm pretty active person, I can't stand a single second doing something I could pity later.
Law and politics are two things that follow me everywhere.
I just hope that not too long from now there will be good friends and family who'll follow me. Right now, however, it's a student life for me.
