I graduated as MSc in African Studies at Charles University in Prague but it turned out that in the contemporary Czech reality my Russian language skills are appreciated more than Amharic or Swahili. Nonetheless, I still like to recall my African period and I am still sure that studies in dissimilar cultures greatly enhance one’s outlook. I started at Radio Praha in 2000, on the first day broadcasting in Russian commenced. Last year it was 14 years I had been working for the Russian Service of Radio Praha, initially as an editor, then as the Head of Russian Service. At present I am Content Editor for Radio Praha International Broadcasting.
