About Me

I'm a twenty-one-year-old student who grew up in Czech republic and today I'm living in Germany, where I started my studies one year ago. I'm interested in languages and would love to become a translator.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on couchsurfing, because the very idea seems intriguing to me. The fact that there is a community of people out there, who are offering to host complete strangers and helping them to learn more about different countries makes me very happy. I am grateful, that something dependent on trust and communication between cultures does work. Eventhough I am currently not able to accept guests I would love to travel more. And what can be more intresting than staying with actual people from those foreign countries and getting to know them better. Also I see it as a great opportunity to ask questions about the land, culture, other ways of thinking and so on.
I love travelling accross countries. I usually can't stay on one place for very long. Therefore I'm usually looking for accommodation for just one night. I think couchsurfing makes these stays so much more interesting.

Interests

Playing theater, reading, travelling (preferably by foot and by public transport), learning languages, speaking foreign languages, spending time with my friends, being creative, making ceramics.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: almost anything. I usually decide song for song, whether I like it or not. Some examples: The Beatles, Jason Mraz, Zrní
Movies: Mary and Max, Song of the sea, Intouchables, The Blues Brothers, Yellow Submarine, Cloud Atlas, Theory of Everything and oh my god so many more.
Books: definitely too many. Just some examples: Harry Potter, Name of the Wind, Froth on the Daydream, anything from Tolkien or Terry Pratchett, Game of Thrones, The Little Prince and I could go on and on...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Student exchange in Germany, which resulted in a lasting friendship with my host.
Actually taking the opportunity and moving to Germany for my studies.

Teach, Learn, Share

teach - basic czech words (so you can impress your friends)
learn - almost anything. I'd like to learn more about places my hosts live in.
share - passion for books, movies, art, various interesting websites

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share my point of view. I can share my way of thinking and most importantly, I think, I can share my passion for books, foreign cultures, friends, life. I feel a deep passion for a lot of things in my life and I get easily excited. I love conversations about almost anything, because I like talking about things that interest me an that I love. And I like listening, learning what other people like and are excited about.
