ABOUT US

Petra graduated from the Department of Translation Studies, Faculty of Arts at Charles University, focusing on the German language. She spent one year on a research stay in Berlin and, after her studies, her path led her to the Czech Radio, specifically to the Czech Radio Vltava station, where she worked as a presenter and editor for cultural and opinion journalism programmes. She led the show Akcent, which brought her to the finals of the Journalist Award, organized by the Open Society Fund Prague. She was also part of the team that prepared the music show Concert for Animals, which won one of the most prestigious international awards, Prix Europe 2021. In her free time Petra likes to go on trips, ideally by bike to the forest. Along the way, she looks for public bookcases and searches for poetry collections that somebody put away. 

With regards to the Bromouv Region Petra loves the beauty of the Baroque churches of the area and the bold plans of the people she meets here.  She is also fascinated by the story of the nearly forgotten Czech Olympian (of German nationality) Emeric Rath.
