Hey. Hey,
my name is Vitek and I'm a 21-year-old student studying social work at the University.
I am a trans man and I started transitioning in 2022 - so please address me in the masculine (he/him).
I love exploring cities, and forgotten streets and admiring old houses. I'm a Boy Scout and I love the outdoors - but cities remain my passion.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like to travel - but being a poor student, I need to save as much money as possible. I can't afford luxury hotels. Couch surfing also gives me the opportunity to meet "locals", locals who usually know the most about cities because they live there themselves.

Music, Movies, and Books

My favourite performers are Leonard Cohen, Melody Gardon, Zuzana Navarová, Jana Lewitová and Katarza.

My favourite film genre is psychological dramas or historical films. The film that impressed me the most is the film based on Jerzy Kosiński's world bestseller The Painted Bird. Václav Marhoul's film The Painted Bird, an adaptation of the world bestseller of the same name.

I can't say which is my favourite book - I've read a lot of good books. At the moment the book "The Expulsion of Greta Schnirch" by Kateřina Tučková resonates in me. The book is about the forced exile of Sudeten Germans from the borderlands after the Second World War.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was 14, a friend and I organized a food and clothing drive. During Advent we took everything to the refugee facility in Bela pod Bezdězem - a refugee centre in the Czech Republic.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I like to talk. Whether it's politics, history or personal stories. I like to get to know people over long conversations - but I don't mind the silence and solitude.
I think I can offer a guest quiet company and a good time.
