About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Restart. Failed? Restart again! Fight the "unbearable lightness of being".

ABOUT ME

Professionally, I am interested in plant hormones (yes, this really exists :) I live in Prague and often leave the city for weekends. Curious. Hesitative. Friendly, I hope. More listening than talking. Love music, photography, cinema, artsy anything in general and lonely landscapes.

I am a non-smoker. Tea and coffee drinker.

PHILOSOPHY

Improvement makes straight roads. But the crooked roads, without improvement are roads of genius. (This is William Blakes' quotation which calms me a lot.)

Respect others. Try at least.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

A little here. A little there. Trying to help if I can.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I had a positive experience with the Hospitality Club previously, CS seems to be more lively now. Have been hosted in Helsinki, Amsterdam and Copenhagen by Hospitality Club members.

It happened several times to me to be hosted by unknown people during my trips even without knowing it's called couchsurfing!

Scroll please, see my references here.

Interests

Backpacking. Photography. Computers and technology.

Did I already mention biking?! I love my bike, in the city, in the forest, long or short journey. Take me on bike through your city and I will be happy.

Music, Movies, and Books

http://www.last.fm/user/nomarski for music.

Jarmusch, Allen, von Trier, Vlacil, Tarkovskij, Bergman, Antonioni, Fridriksson, Tarantino, Aronofsky, Besson, Lynch, Gondry, etc. for film.

Damn, I do not read a lot. Murakami, Hoeg, Kundera recently. Much more of scientific papers :) Still, I buy books because I love the smell, the feeling of turning pages and the possibility I read everything one day.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Touched a glacier. Saw the ocean. Felt the fear of bears in the wild. Fed a sparrow with my hand. Climbed into the clouds. Hitchhiked around islands. Loved. Saw the sun rising. Saw it setting down.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you juggling. And a few words in Czech!
