She enjoys very much giving tours to the youth or kids, which she sometimes does for free for the local primary schools. She is currently finishing her studies at the University of Economics, the Regional Development studies, but she sees her future in tourism. In the early morning, you can see her jogging in the park, in the afternoon she explores the Prague second hand book shops.
