03 / About

Outside of work,
mostly music.

Based in Prague
Usually near music
Daniel with his cello
Music workspace with a piano and cello
A splooting cat

Away from code, I’m usually playing piano or cello.

I like long walks in forests, bowls of ramen, light mode during the day, and cats with strong opinions. They all make their way into the work somehow.
