Hi, my name is Jan Kratochvíl (the english version would be John), I come from the Czech Republic.
I recently graduated high school and have a gap year which I want to spend mostly on travel
My Instagram is @honzkratochvil
I used to do athletics, play table tennis, or do tricks with cards which is called cardistry
Now I like to work out, hike, do ice baths, read, and educate myself about countries and cultures around the world.
Part-time jobs I have done: McDonald's, cashier in a supermarket, construction work, I tutored math, and led a sports club for disabled children
I started travelling as a 17 year old, my first trip was to Hungary for a few days, the next trip was to Latvia and Lithuania for 10 days, after that Italy for 10 days, then I went to Portugal and did a pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela, and the most recent trip was to Thailand for a whole month.
Apart from these trips, I did a few hiking multiday trips around my country.
In general I like motorsport and I am a Formula 1 fan
