About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To enjoy my job.

ABOUT ME

... I usually don't know what to write, but this is not a very original answer (as I've seen it in many profiles:-), so I have to put up something better:
An usual guy under the skies, so not going to save the world (not this time, sorry:-) or anything that big.
I just want to do what I like (see interests) and not to bother anyone meanwhile...more nicely described as the live and let live philosophy. I like to travel and meet other people ... I don't know why, it's just so...:-)

PHILOSOPHY

To do things thoroughly (If you look at my interests, you'll grasp why I'm dissatisfied with myself:-)
Live and let live.
It's better to regret things you have done than those you haven't done.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am part of The System :-)
Have hosted just a few people so far, so hope that more of you are coming:-) ... I want to pay my debts towards the community:-)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Excellent:-)

Interests

A load of them. I really don't know where to start, as hobbies and interests are literally my whole life.
I definitely love nature and like to be active...that means I like trekking, hiking, biking, mountain and rock climbing (in a relaxed way...grade 7 UIAA is maximum for me:-), kayaking etc. I take some deviated sports more seriously - this involves Adventure races, Sport trekking, Rogaining, Orienteering. I also like to organise these events. This is connected with my interest in education by adventure and experiential learning (do you know about the Outward Bound?) ... I am head-instructor in some experiential learning institutions in CZ and have participated on many courses for children and adults.
Apart from that I am fascinated by air and being free, so I am an aeroplane modeller, have a paragliding licence and want to get licence for gliders (at least:-)
I also like photography both actively and pasively and... WAIT! what the f*** is this guy writing here? Nobody can do all these things alltogether!
Yes, that's right, I'm a bit schizophrenic about my hobbies ... always a bit in depression I can't manage them all properly (and there are more of them...). But I try hard...
And what is worse, there is always something new and exciting on the horizon... Doesn't anybody here have a recipe for anti-sleeping pills? :-)
