About Me

I am a philology student wanting to travel the world. I am quite talkative, friendly and down for new stuff to try out. I love culture (literature, theatre, music, fashion,etc.), walking in cities and nature, partying, going to concerts, enjoying life.

As for travelling, I'm mostly interested in cities. I don't care about sightseeing that much, I'd rather spend some time as a regular citizen of the city just wandering through the streets, parks, flea markets, cafés and pubs. Or to get lost in the nature near the city. I like to define what's beautiful myself. I hate places crowded with tourist and queues. I'd rather run wild.

If you enjoy walking, talking about life, death, art, people; eating and drinking; doing anything spontaneously or just rolling up a doobie, hit me up :)

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to various types of music, depends on the mood, but I guess "atmospheric" could be the word that describes them all. According to my Spotify account, my most played artists are following: Radiohead, Kanye West, Yung Lean, Bon Iver, Mogwai, Glass Animals, Beach House, Gorillaz, Devendra Banhart, Youth Lagoon and various Czech bands.

My favourite books are collections of short stories or shorter psychological novels, excluding books by Czech authors, these are my favourites: Lolita by Nabokov, Haunted by Palahniuk (most of his other books too), The Wall by Sartre, The Seagull by Tchekhov, Winnie the Pooh by Milne, The Virgin Suicides by Eugenides, Howl by Ginsberg,...

I love movies about people searching for life meaning as well as great horrors and thrillers. My top movies of all time include American Beauty, Lost in Translation, Girl Interrupted, Donnie Darko, Leon The Professional, Cube, The Shining, Fight Club,...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've been to Singapore to attend a choir singing competition. I don't even sing that much.

What I Can Share with Hosts

If visiting Ostrava, I can't offer accomodation since I live with my family in a smaller flat. But I can show you around, walk through the city like a local, do some sightseeing, but mostly show you cafés, shops, restaurants, nice places to relax and to take photos of. :)

If I'm staying with you, we can chat, watch movies, go partying, walking around the city, pretty much anything. I will bring a little gift from Czech Republic too. :)
