CURRENT MISSION

Life is like a coin! You can spend it in many ways but you only get to spend it once!

ABOUT ME

To get a better image of me read my references :-)

However, I would describe myself as open-minded, enjoys meeting interesting people and fruitful conversations :-) Non-smoker and a 100 % backpacker and a surfer with a big interest in getting to know local cultures and people.

I believe things happen for a reason, people meet for a reason and CS has confirmed that on many occasions.

PHILOSOPHY

Heaven helps those who help themselves!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love meeting new people from all around the world! Travelling and staying with local people is just the best way how to explore the culture! CS is not a free stay, it is a cultural exchange !!!
Always want to share the most with my host or surfer. Always respect the home where I am being hosted. CS is a marvellous cultural experience!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

CS isn't a free stay or simple cultural exchange for me, it's a LIFESTYLE.

Countries I have surfed in:
* Argentina
* Brazil
* Colombia
* Peru
* Ecuador
* Germany
* Spain
* the UK
* the Netherlands
* Turkey
* Serbia
* Iran
* Malaysia
* Thailand
* India
After getting stuck in Mexico City, my flight to London was due in a few hours and I had my couch confirmation cancelled - read no place to stay after a transcontinental flight - I put an emergency post in London Group. Was received almost immediately by two other London hosts and I got even more surprised how people can get generous, helpful and sympathetic! THANKS!

I have hosted and been to meetings in Colombia, have taken part in various activities in Bogota and have showed around my home town Prague when contacted and when I am there.

Interests

TRAVELLING, learning languages, teaching, eating - SUSHI is my favourite food, drinking wine and coffee, recently discovered the magic of mate, socializing and meeting new people, yoga and meditation, swimming, reading (at least one book a month, I always bring one when travelling) and watching movies (both chick-flick and art / independent cinematography), hiking, dancing salsa, cooking (or at least trying ...), studying English and Spanish grammar before I go to sleep - weird but helpful :-)
