Overview
About Me
I come from the Czech Republic, where I grew up in a house on the edge of the capital - Prague.
I am an architecture student who loves camping, hiking and outdoor activities. Besides my studies I work part time as a high rope center instructor.
I might strike you as shy in the beginning, but I generally enjoy getting to know new people and engaging in crazy spontanious adventures.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Obvious reason - travelling. I heard of couchsurfing and thought it would be an awesome way to make your travel experience different from a "travel agency holliday package".
I primarily set up my couchsurfing account for my upcoming adventure in New Zealand, but I hope I will be able to return the favour and host fellow travellers when I get back home.
Interests
I love creating things with my hands and handcrafing stuff, no matter if it is from wood, mud or plastic (that also defines my favourite part of the architecture studies - model making)
I am also a bit of a fan of adrenaline and outdoor sports. I have tried bungee jumping and parachute jumping and I am always looking for an poprtunity to try this sort of activities.

Music, Movies, and Books
When it comes to reading, I quite enjoy fantasy, although I wouldn't consider myself an expert in this genre. ( among my favourite authors would be Terry Pratchett and G.R.R. Martin)
I play the saxophone and I can make some guitar chords.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
One of the first hikes I've ever done was the Camino de Santiago. I dreamt about doing this hike since I started learning Spanish in high school, so I was really happy when I made it happen when I turned eighteen. Although it isn't exceptionaly difficult or unique, sitting in front of the Cathedral after walking the way was one of the best and strongest feelings I've ever experienced.
Teach, Learn, Share
Studying architecture, I got to learn how to work with various computer programes including autodesk and adobe software. So If you need to learn how to make pimples on your photos disappear or you want to photoshop a unicorn in your family christmass card, I can help you out.
Also having a sweet tooth made me learn how to cook all sorts of cakes and desserts.
What I Can Share with Hosts
Growing up in a house made me familiar wit all sorts of work, whether it is tightening screws, chopping wood or gardening. I'll be willing to offer my help if it is within my powers.
