Hi, my name is Michal. I am from Slovakia. The small country in the middle of Europe.
I like hiking and love nature I feel good staying long time in some wild places. I am ecological orientated and I am trying to produce less trash. So I have vermicompostizer at my flat to recycle all biological trash.
I practice Acroyoga about 7 years. I play ice hockey that's my favorite sport. I can ride a horse. I enjoy skiing and also I am a ski instructor. Every winter I am teaching a group of English youngsters in Austria. I was the swimmer and now practice swimming in lakes during winters.
I like reading books. Actually, I am reading "Andy Warhol" (Fame). I have friendly, funny and emotional personality. I like history, music, reading and funny spontaneous and open personsonalities and people who can inspire you. I really like music especially live. Listenig music starts lot of emotions in me so I am always happy to find some interesing music. So that's all for the start. :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

"Having land and not ruining it is the most beautiful art that anybody could ever want to own."

To meet locals because they show you the best places at their spot, their traditions, mentality and the way of their life. You can find good friends and at least you to have contact with somebody who can help share and show new things. Also, I can save some money for a further trip.
