Remember when kids in middle school were punished by getting sent to the corner or hit on the tips of their finger with a ruler? Yeah, that must’ve been fun! Fortunately, that has changed, but has it changed for the better? I personally do not think so.

František Gyáfáš is a Slovak IT specialist, programmer, but also a Profesor here at BISLA and other universities across Slovakia. In this interview of František Gyáfáš by Ivona Mičeková, he goes into details about his colourful past in Socialist Czechoslovakia, his international experiences, and his hobbies.
I was born and raised in Minsk, my school years passed here, where I first fell in love and then broke up, skipped classes at McDonald’s and drank champagne in the yard. Here I made friends, rode on a skateboard, and drank a lot of coffee. Here I went to university, found a job for the first time, and it was from here that I always wanted to escape.
Before I came to Bratislava, Slovakia meant for me a blank spot on the map of Europe, the continent in which a fair deal of my twenty-two years life has been spent. I chose to spend my semester abroad in Slovakia since it was one of the only destinations of which I had no stereotypes at all.
