About Me

I'm a university student specializing in the fields of experimental biology and anthropology at Masaryk University in Brno, Czech Republic. I love traveling to different places and I've spent a year as a foreign exchange student in Wisconsin, USA.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'd like to meet some new people and make as many friends worldwide as possible. I would love to share my culture and show you around my city and the surrounding areas. I think it's important to meet new people from different countries because it helps spread understanding between cultures and people groups.

Interests

My biggest passion would be music, I play on several instruments (guitar, bass, flute, mandolin) and sing. I also love to hang out with my friends, go to a bar or just do something fun. I like reading books and watching TV shows. I love being outside hiking or play some sports.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like almost all kinds of music but I mostly prefer classic rock like Led Zeppelin, Rolling Stones or Pink Floyd. But I also listen to jazz, classic music and other styles. On my guitar I usually play some independent acoustical things. I like reading too, preferably some fantasy novel by Tolkien or something from the beat generation like Ginsberg, Kerouac or Bukowski. My three favorite authors would be Kerouac, Kundera and Murakami. I'm also huge movie and TV show fan, I like to watch Hannibal, Game of Thrones, Friends, The Simpsons, Family Guy and so many others.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I'm not sure I'd consider these as amazing things, but considering my travels I've spent a year in the US as a foreign exchange student, I've hitchhiked 10 000+ km all around Europe and I've walked the 750 km long pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd love to learn about your culture, especially about the local food and drinks. Meet a lot of local people and in exchange to show you a little inside into my culture, share some stories and enjoy time together.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I think I'm very communicative person and I can definitely share my culture with you. Czech Republic isn't very well-known country in the world so I think it would be a wonderful cultural exchange. You get to know my culture and I get to know yours.
