Crossroads
I call this one Crossroads because I’ve always kind of liked them. When you're out riding without a clear destination—mentally or physically—they give you that little nudge to make a decision.
Snap away
That’s literally all there is. Just a bunch of random shots. A couple of snaps here and there…

There are still places out there—hidden in plain sight. I love exploring them; they’re the most precious places Mother Nature has to offer. Finding them carries the same weight as some of life’s big milestones: graduation, a first kiss, a promotion... even winning the lottery (which I never have). Long story short, these places mean a lot—to me, and to themselves.
Girona
So we went to Girona. It was kind of a dream of ours that had to eventually come true. Dreams need to come true—otherwise they get lost or forgotten, and that’s very bad. Therefore, I’d like to tell you about our journey. In short. And mostly through photos.
Giro Sterrato Numero Nove
This is what we’ve all been waiting for and that’s all I’m gonna say about this day.
The Pattern of Togetherness
But what makes me even happier is seeing people excited to have a riding buddy—someone to ride with, talk with, and share experiences with.
Stará Voda
There's a place not far from Olomouc, nestled in the region once known as the Sudetenland…
I’m really starting to enjoy this
Another batch of film surprises. I have to say, I’m really starting to enjoy this. I’ve shot film before, but only recently have I come to appreciate how fun and memorable it truly is.
13945
While sitting in front of the cabin and enjoying our lunch, a thought came to me. Do you know how we usually talk about our age in years?
every cause has its because
surprises, again
A collection of photographs taken over certain period of time. Camera used: Olympus MJU-1 with film Kodak Gold 200 and Agfa APX 400. No particular meaning just a bunch of little surprises.
simple things
Anyway—today, we checked out the ruins of Brníčko Castle and spent almost an hour there. The place is magical, and the views… jeeesh. Then we grabbed coffee at Pikola in Šumperk, headed back to Olomouc, and wrapped up the day with an evening walk through the city. That’s it, that’s all.
with mom
We head out from home in thick fog, feeling a little bummed that we won’t get to see much. But I tell myself, quietly, that it’s fine—it’ll still be awesome.

surprises
I have this little black plastic thing with a tiny bit of glass. When you press it, it creates a surprise for you. You don’t entirely know what that surprise is until you finish 36 of them (sometimes 24). It also has a way of making people smile. It doesn’t ask for much; you just need to carry it with you everywhere. That’s all it needs.

thoughts during a run
Why do I run at night (in the dark)?
It kind of tricks my mind, making it feel like everything around me slows down. You don’t see distractions like streetlights, passing cars, or lights in the windows that would mess up the trick. It’s just me, total darkness, and my headlamp—because breaking your ankle isn’t fun.
Festive, day five
The Jeseníky Mountains are dotted with old hunting cabins and huts. They’re easy to find on maps, but some are tucked away in very remote spots. Yes, you guessed it—I prefer the remote ones. Unfortunately, unlike bothies in Scotland, these cabins in the Czech Republic usually belong to forest services or other organizations, so they can only be explored from the outside. Today, we’re visiting one that’s over 100 years old.
Festive, day four
After yesterday’s snow-wading madness, we treated ourselves to a nice, slow morning. Later, we went for a short hike in the sun — just a chill day.
