For some people can be a little bit tricky to pronounce my name especially if you are not from Czech Republic. This name is sometimes "tongue-twister" even for people from my nation. So feel free to use short version of my name: Olda or long one if you think that I am Old and Rich. One day I will be old but not rich - definetely. ;)

I am technical enthusisast with passion in white water kayaking, biking, hiking, treking and I completely fell in love with balcan mentality and food.

I am mix of hippie and punk who cleans his teeth, change underwearand and go to work - sometimes. ;)

I believe that even wrong train can take you into right station.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am solo traveller who likes to meeting new people and I want to see different cultures from "inside" and visit places which are not in guide books. I also like to meet expats who lives for a long time in different countries. Thanks to my job I have oppurtunity to live in expensive hotels (not my choice) but I always feel that I am missing something... adventure, meeting extraordinery people, street food diarrhea, cheap beer...

I am "guiding light" for lost tourists in Prague and thanks to this I have really good "travelling" karma and I am meeting only good and helpful people on my travels.

As kayaker I say: "I dont care if my experience was good or bad but how intense it was".
