Born in one of the most beautiful cities in the world - Prague, but as we all do, I took its beauties for granted and tried to find more beauties around the world. My first trips took me to places where ancient civilizations left their mark such as India, Egypt and Middle East. Traveled as far as Mongolia, New Zealand or Alaska, always enjoying discovering new places and if lucky returning there too. I slowly but surely got used to it and travelled 81 countries ever since, finding home in different places of the world.
