Hey, I am a 26 year old university student drop-out living currently in the suburbs of Prague. I like music and play multiple instruments - from string instruments to horns and percussion. I am interested in languages and speak English and German, trying to learn Spanish, or Arabic. I would welcome anyone who would like to help me with this. I love cooking and like experimenting with different kind of herbs. I work from home nowadays and try to be physically active in my spare time.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to help out travelers, who are looking for a place to stay. Also, I want to meet new open-minded people with similar hobbies.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I don't think I did anything amazing in my life, that would change this world for the better. To do something truly amazing for me means to solve the world food crisis, stop global warming, or end capitalism. None of these things will I be able to do during the course of my life. I think I should do some volunteering at least.
In 2017 I started hitchhiking and it has become a passion of mine. Most of the time I travel alone, which gives me a new sense of purpose and peace. These are the journeys I have undertaken and there will be many more.
