I am a student from Czech Republic. At the moment I am 19 but cannot guarantee this information is gonna stay the same for long. At the moment I am preparing to enter Manchester school of architecture thus starting my dream of becoming an architect. So by now you can probably tell I am an uncorrectable optimist and idealist.

I have a load of hobbies and definetely not enough time to tend to them all as much as I would prefere to. Among those I count for example my deep passion for music (I play alto and tenor sax and also some flutes, oh and an accordeon). I love doing all kinds of sports, professionally I do competitive fencing. I am very much interested in philosophy, sociology and politology.

I am probably a mix of an introvert and an extrovert (dont know if this is even possible. I just feel that way) but nevertheless always friendly and open minded.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

First and foremost I am here to get myself out of my comfort zone. To experience something new and unusual meet new people learn to communicate (since I have problems with that) and see all different parts of the world.

It is also fair to say that one of the reasons is money; I am a student and Onbudget is practically my middle name. All I'm trying to do is to dicover as much of life as possible with the limited finantial options I have.

Music, Movies, and Books

Gosh that's just hard; certainly can't determine my favourite ones - there's so many of them. But I can mention some examples:

Movies: Anything from Nolan, Tarantino and Copolla. Also love Wes Anderson, Tim Burton, Del Toro. Mijazaki! Tarkovski... and so on so on.. Would be very happy to recommend some czech ones too.

Music: I love anything that has some thought into it. Some examples: Pink Floyd, Jefferson Arplane, The who, Jethro Tull, Mad season...

Books: Love to read. But theres so many of them. I barely finished the very classics. But I love the beat generation (I am a young traveller after all), also a big fan of science fiction. And I am very careful around postmodern. You can never be careful enough around postmodern.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Dreamed.

Teach, Learn, Share

Not sure what this column is for but I am definately willing to learn as well as share opinions, worldviews, and most importantly culture and experiences.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I will be more than happy to share any of the modest experience I have managed to gather in my 19 years of walking on this world. Music, art, culture - you name it. Anything thats true and has a meaning.
Another commodity I am willing to share is good mood and positive energy.
Naturally I am happy to offer my help with anything you need around the house.
