Orienteering

[edit]

Ropek received a bronze medal in the relay at the 2001 World Orienteering Championships with the Czech team, and a silver medal in the sprint distance in 2003.[2]

He received a silver medal in relay at the 2000 European Orienteering Championships in Truskavets.[3]

Wander Book project

[edit]

Ropek makes a living as a photographer and entrepreneur.[4] In 2008, he founded the Wander Book (Wander Cards) project whose idea was to create easily storable collectible souvenirs and support tourism. Wander Cards are stickers with photos of tourist destinations or commemorating tourist and cultural events, which mainly cover the Czech Republic, its neighbouring countries (Slovakia, Poland, Austria, Germany) and Hungary.[5]
