He seems like a nice guy, anybody willing to offer some hospitality?

He will be going from Seattle to South America - if you want to meet him, offer a dinner, bed and breakfast or just a drink - shoot him an email:

pavel@jawakolemsveta.cz

He worked for a motorcycle magazine in Europe, speaks English and will have already Asia under his belt when he lands in Seattle.
