Overview of my experience with Webpublishing

I stay in touch with the outer world by using e-mail (currently I am using 2 accounts - one on www.seznam.cz and one on Google). I wasn't a Facebook fan until I decided to go on Erasmus. From that time on I am using Facebook regularly - and that not only for fun but also for fast communication with my peers. It is also easier to follow the upcoming events on FB. In the past years I was also using ICQ and now I am using Skype a lot. Until now I was neither writing a blog, nor tweets. I also don't run any webpages. I usually don't take part in webdiscussion, although I sometimes read various people's comments on the web. I have seen a couple of webinars provided by Macmillan websites but I didn't take an active part in them. When I'll have more time, I am thinking of trying to take some courses at www.coursera.org. For keeping and sharing photos and files I use Dropbox.
The Internet is a great tool for communication and I cannot imagine my life without "being online". However, I guess that I use just a tiny bit of its potential and it might be interesting to get to know some more of it.


Introduction of myself

Hello! My name is Lucie Slavikova and I was born and I still live (already for 24 years) in the Czech Republic. I live in a small town called Louny which is situated some 60 kilometers from our capital, Prague. After the 5th grade at the primary school I went to study the grammar school in Louny and I spent there 8 wonderful teenage years. I received my Bachelor degree at the Faculty of Education, Charles University in Prague where I now study for the Master degree. My field of study is Secondary School Teacher Education of English and German. From the end of February to the end of June 2013 I am on the Erasmus stay in Linz, Upper Austria, which is so far a great and enriching experience for me.

What to say more? ... Oh yes, I can't forget to mention my family and my hobbies. I have 2 brothers, Tomas and Jan, and I am a typical sandwich child with all its pros and cons. My parents, me and my younger brother live in a house with our 87-years-old granny and our 5-years-old yellow Labrador Ronny, so sometimes it is very busy and funny in our place. I love traveling, reading books, watching films, listening to music and eating good food. And my boyfriend Filip, of course.

Yes and my shoe size is 40 ... unfortunately!
