Hi :)

Despite my Greek nickname I am from Prague, Czech Republic. I love to travel although I am severely limited by my finances. I always appreciate tips for budget travel - to get to the most interesting places with a low budget. I am very much interested in the monuments of the pre-Christian civilizations, Greece, Egypt, civilizations of the New World... I would also like to visit natural wonders, from Amazonian or Papuan rainforest to Antarctica.

Dream job: being paid for traveling - guiding people, writing guides and such things :)

Wikivoyage in Czech

A co založit českou mutaci Wikivoyage? Podle pravidel jsou pro založení jazykové mutace třeba tři autoři. Pokud by se našli další dva, můžeme to zkusit. Ale popravdě si nejsem jistý, zda to má smysl. Cestovatel by přeci měl umět anglicky či jiný světový jazyk, ne? Anglická verze bude vždy dál. Proč potom koukat do české? Ale možná alespoň české destinace by zasloužily českého průvodce. Uvidíme.
