ABOUT ME
こんいちわ、私はStepanです！私はチェコ人です。私は日本が好きです.

Hello couchsurfers! I'm Stepan from Czech republic. This year, I started with my master's degree in Data Science, an exciting and fast-evolving field with wide applicability. Exploring wild nature is my passion. I love hiking and camping, being curled in my sleeping bag under a sky full of stars (nothing compares to stargazing in central Australia). I never say no to participating in sports. Do you want to play soccer or badminton?.. go swimming or do yoga?.. or hit mountains and do snowboarding? Great, sign me in! I don't turn down watching a good movie, relaxed stroll around the city nor a deep and honest conversation.

PHILOSOPHY
Treat other the way you want to be treated.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I believe CS is a perfect way to help others to have more genuine travelling experience. CS also helps to make the world more interconnected and more fun.

I enjoy when I can help travellers to get to know the lifestyle in my city/country. I am happy to recommend CS guests beautiful places around my hometown, give them suggestions on local meals and facilitate to have as authentic experience as possible.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
My family hosted over dozen CSs in our apartment (I, my sister and mum have separate CS accounts), it is mostly my mum who accepts couschsurfers as me and my sis are studying in a different city. I have surfed two times in Australia.
