About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to live

ABOUT ME
In "old" life was a computer guy. Have you ever heard SAP? Yes, that was my job, to be a consultant a play role of clever guy, who knows how to work with computers and especially with information system SAP.
But this is past. My life completely change at the end of 2009, when I decided to walk Camino Santiago from my home town in Czech Republic. I have starter 1st June 2010, arrived to Santiago after 4000 km on 24th December. Finally I continued for next 2 years and reached Rome and Jerusalem. In total it was 16000 km. After 1,5 years back in Czech Republic back on the road. Every year trying to walk at least for 6 months and my goal is to walk all around the world.
So now I am pilgrim or if you want long-distance walker, who like smile, sing (only when I am alone :-)), dance. So, from what is written above looks like I am pretty stubborn. But I am trying to be open-minded as much as possible and still curios about new things and meetings with people.
I don´t like conflicts. I prefer peaceful way solving problems or misunderstanding.

PHILOSOPHY
I am living only one time and it is NOW. So it is not so useful to thing too much. I prefer doing.

Nothing is so serious how it looks at the first moment.

There is only one Truth, inside of You ...
