About Me

I am an open-minded, tolerant and curious guy, who is trying to figure it out. I enjoy good company of friends as well as good music, films or books. I also like to experience new places, in the countryside or in the city, in the woods or by the sea, or people, especially those who will enrich my views on life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've only heard stories from friends' experiences, and I would like to try it myself!

Interests

Films, art, poetry, science. But I'm also curious in a lot of different ways. I like to get the bigger picture.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love American Beauty, Drive, Sex, Lies and Videotape. I like films of various genres from witty blockbusters, through documentaries to arthouse films, from Europe or the world, modern or old.

I enjoy English and American literature, I love F. S. Fitzgerald. Like in films I don't differentiate, the only measure is quality. And I have a lot to catch up! Lately I've been exploring poetry, mostly Czech or English.

As for music, I went from hip-hop through electronic to a state, where I don't like any boxes. But with trip-hop, instrumental hip-hop, drone or a good film soundtrack you probably wouldn't miss. I also like specific types of rock which I am not able to name, who can tell!
Names, f.e.: DJ Shadow, Jon Hopkins, Jesu, Atlas Sound

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've helped refugees on the Croatian-Serbian border.
