About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Escape the office stereotype for good.

ABOUT ME

I'am a surfing lawyer. Well, I studied law, got my degree, tried to be a lawyer for a while and realized that it simply doesn't work for me. So I quit being a lawyer and decided to be a surf instructor for a while. At least until I find something better to do. And since we don't have any ocean where I'm from, my plan involves some travelling. Rather a lot of travelling...:)

PHILOSOPHY

Replace fear of the unknown with curiosity

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

While in Prague I hosted any time I could. For some time, it became a real part of my life. Now, during my travels, I try to surf a bit as well and spread the CS spirit! :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

CS gave me a lot. It gave me new friends, plenty of experience and most of all it gave me trust in people. I am happy I can be a part of this project.

Interests

Sports. Any kind, really. But mostly those connected with water - sailing, swimming, surfing and also snowboarding, cycling, running...
In my free time I like to watch good movies, listen to good music, read, go out and see some art exhibitions and play guitar (rather learn than play..)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Ate two francezinhas at once in Porto. That's a lot of food for those who don't know francezinhas! :D

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can tell you all about Czech Republic if you're interested. (Yes, the beer is cheaper than water here! )

I can cook some Czech food for you (And yes, I consider schnitzel and gulash a Czech food :D )

I can teach you surf a bit if you don't already surf better than me (and it is quite likely that you do...:) )
