Overview
About Me
Hey there,
I'm a man of many hats. Besides being a student (recently graduated from the Rocket Science, I've been helping people by working as a project leader in the Erasmus Student Network where we aid international students. Currently I have a job back in my field as I work for the Czech Academy of Sciences, Department of Cosmic Physics. Besides that, I follow my passion and I've been working as a baker in an Italian Bakery and as a cook in two catering companies. Whenever I can, I leave my room in Prague to travel. So far I have visited 40+ countries and I simply can't stop.
I'm very open minded, adventurous and I love learning new things and helping others.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I would like to meet more people from all over the world, learn about their culture and hopefully make new friends. #cliché

Music, Movies, and Books
I am a lot into Indie and classical music (Grieg, Tchaikovskij, Dvořák), but I listen to pretty much everything. Dirty pleasure: old school hip-hop.
In terms of literature, I have read so many books I don't know if there's any specific genre I'd prefer. In general, I like books by Haruki Murakami, G.G. Marquéz, George Orwell, Franz Kafka an couple of other writers.
When it comes to movies, I like movies like Amelie, Pulp Fiction, The Martian, Intouchables and many film classics.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Hard to pick one!
What I felt as pretty amazing was when I managed to see an active volcano and the northern lights in Iceland and went surfing in Portugal....within 7 days :)
What I Can Share with Hosts
I can share my life experience and some rather adventurous stories, bring something to eat or cook if requested and who knows, maybe I'll teach some some basics of one of the languages I know. Let's hope you will find me as entertaining as my friends :D
