About Pavel Zemánek


Hello. My name is Pavel Zemánek and I come from Znojmo, although I have been living in Brno for
five years. I am a postgraduate student doing research in eco-toxicology, which is a field that is
currently producing very interesting results. Soon my course will be finished and so I am very busy
updating my CV and applying for jobs with a companies that specialize in this kind of work. It
would be nice if I could continue to work in this area after the completion of my course.

At the moment I am living in a bedsit near the centre of town but soon I am going to share a flat
with some friends in a suburb of Brno. This will make it cheaper since we will share the rent
between us.
