Description

Hello!

We are Lenka and Marek, a Slovak couple living in the Czech Republic. It’s been quite a while since we moved from Slovakia, and now we’re ready for another change. We’d love to experience Spain and Portugal and get to know its culture. We'd also be happy to help wherever needed and share our knowledge and skills.

We’re curious and adaptable, with a big interest in languages, cultures, and everyday life in different countries. We enjoy spending time outdoors, meeting people for good conversations, cooking, trying new recipes, and playing badminton. We also like being around animals.

I (Lenka) graduated in Baltic studies this September. Experience from working in a café and in customer support taught me how to handle different people and situations. I’m friendly and outgoing, and I enjoy expressing my creativity in different ways — through writing stories, crafting, or getting lost in a good book, while also finding joy in listening to music.

Marek studied History and later worked in different companies. With an interest in computers and programming, he likes to stay active through sports and is always keen on learning new skills. His free time often goes into caring for plants, hiking, and playing guitar.
