Hey there! I'm a friendly, open-minded guy from the Czech Republic. I'm finishing my Master's degree in Economics from University of Economics, Prague.

I was working in the USA as a lifeguard in summer of 2015 & 2016 and I am fluent in English.

Currently, I am in Jiangxi Province of China on a student exchange program (for the spring semester). I plan to see as much as I can while I'm here and I'd also love to go to Bali for 2 weeks during April/May.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We've all got one thing in common here on CouchSurfing - we want to meet new people and love to travel.

I do realize that the amount of free time I've got right now is going to get cut drastically after I start working on my career (as soon as I graduate in 2018), which is why I am trying to travel as much possible right now.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I saved a life while working as a lifeguard in the United States.

Teach, Learn, Share

I guess this asks for a wise quote, so here's one:

"The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, the education, the money, than circumstances, than failure, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. It will make or break a company... a church... a home. The remarkable thing is we have a choice every day regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past... we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude. I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it. And so it is with you. We are in charge of our attitudes."

- Chuck Swindoll
