I love exploring everything around me - thus, it is not surprising I am a scientist. The important aspect of doing good science is to travel...
All in all, I am traveling quite a lot, mostly around Europe. Since I like bustling cities and quiet historical towns as well as nature, the list of my visited sites is diverse.
My most impressive site: Prague, Assisi, Bauhaus, Primeval beech forests
My proposal for a new site: Ještěd transmitter, Lecce, Burren landscape, Sligo megalithic landscape, Carnac megalithic landscape, Tainan temples in Taiwan
