Martin Šimko - Interests

Scouting⚜️

I spend most of my free time in scouting. If you don’t know much about it, scouting (World Organization of the Scout Movement) is a worldwide organization whose goal is to educate and support young people. We spend a lot of time in nature and there we learn different things – from how to start a fire or build a shelter to how to respect nature and ourselves. At the moment, I am the deputy of our troop leader, but I also lead my own patrol of younger boys. We meet regularly and follow a program that I create for them. Personally, I believe scouting is partly a way of life, not just a “hobby,” because the things we learn there stay with us in everyday life (whether practical or spiritual...).

Video Games🕹️

Since I was little, I remember always enjoying video games, and even today I often find myself turning on a game on my computer to relax. For me personally, it’s a perfect way to rest and have some fun. Nowadays, the market is full of different options and genres to try out, but in my free time I most enjoy playing RPG or RTS games – although there are others I like to play as well.

Movies🎞️ and TV Series📽️

I also enjoy watching a movie or a TV series in my free time. It’s a great way to make my evening more interesting and expand my cultural horizons. What really excites me is when a movie or series is so well made that I keep thinking about it for days afterward – and when I rewatch it, I always notice new details that enrich the experience.
