Overview
About Me
As we spend most of the time together (and have no plans in changing it), we use single profile. We have been previously very active at CS, but had a break after it turned money-making platform... However, Covid has changed world and other more freeminded hospitality platforms are unstable, unrecognized and provide too little opportunities, so we had to return here and to swallow paying the fees...
Vojto: I was active boyscouting in Slovakia until I went to Uni, but there was less and less time later. Spending time in "wild"; fishing, hiking, biking, climbing are all my hobbies, that I that I used to do, do occasionaly, or plan to do again. I am bit of biology nerd, interested in nature and animals from the smallest to giants. Working at university is my dream that came true. I can add quality alcohol consumption (we make some of our own too :D), relapses in 90s computer gaming ... But of course my main interests are lately the 3 kids, my wonderful wife and the assembly of animals we have.
I am human-optimist, believing people are good in nature and deserve second chances and no prejudices. I am glad to get a chance to help when it is needed and enjoy company of people I get to meet and to know.
Aja: When I was 8 I started horse-riding and it is still my biggest hobby - we have 4 horses at home at the moment. I met Vojto at the uni (we were classmates) and we were doing a lot together - climbing, hitchhiking and travelling. Now we have 3 kids, so we had to settle down a bit. I also like crosswords and singing. I tried playing in amateur theatre and even directing plays for a while :)
We both are metal music fans, love festivals.

Music, Movies, and Books
Agatha Christie (just Aja), JRR Tolkien, Witcher, Night watch, The Divine Cities (Benett) ... but we´ve been reading mostly scentific literature in the last xx years :(
In recent years we got hooked up on Stjepan Šejić´s comicbooks, especially Death Vigil, Ravine, Sunstone... Vaughan´s Saga...and webcomics Erfworld, Order of the stick, Piled Higher and Deeper, Cyanide and Happiness...
Music: rock, metal, accepting most of music gendres.
The tops are maybe Judas Priest, Rainbow, Halloween, Bruce Dickinson, "fun metal" like Alestorm, Trollfest, and for personal reasons Erszebeth ! :) Actually I started to secretly listen to 90´s dance, techno lately, especially when working on texts.
Aja: I share the taste of books and music with Vojto, but we really differ in movies - my favourite genre is action/fun movies like The Expendables and I also like movies based on comic books.
Vojto: I don´t mind difficult, dark movies, I don´t mind it it is more art than action... :)
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Vojto: 7-day(including all traveltime) worktrip to Sydney and back that resulted in a decent scientific publication about a worm that can get in your brain!
