As the queer geek kid I was, the hobby seemed to be the perfect way to put everything I loved the most together&#8230;video games, costuming, performing and craftsmanship. In over 15 years of cosplay, I became 4 times world champion and could travel to over 20 countries as a guest in geek conventions from all over the world&#8230;from Dubai to the USA, from Japan to Colombia. But after all this time, there was nothing else I could do in the hobby anymore. The performances became so literal. There\u2019s no space for creativity anymore. So, I felt like I needed something else. Then it came&#8230;drag!<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Three years ago, my best friend introduced me to <strong>RuPaul\u2019s Drag Race<\/strong>, and a whole new world of possibilities opened up in front of my eyes. I saw that maybe with the drag, I could be the best version of myself&#8230;and then Slovakia came out! The idea of having my own original character, with no specific gender attached to it, yet still being able to embody different characters, is no less than amazing! Finally, I can be that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.finalfantasyxv.com\/\">Final Fantasy<\/a>\/ Bollywoodian \/ eccentric character I\u2019ve always wanted to be!<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I\u2019ve chosen this name because my family came from the Slovakian Republic, fleeing from the war in the early 40\u2019s, and started their lives from the scratch here. I do admire their bravery and guts so much&#8230;so, it makes me be a better person on a daily basis.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h1>Instagram:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/houseofslovakia\/\">houseofslovakia<\/a><\/h1>\n<p>https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/BiaTwL_h1fd\/?taken-by=houseofslovakia<br \/>\nhttps:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/BiicieIBnR3\/?taken-by=houseofslovakia<br \/>\nhttps:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/BhefxQMhW-o\/?taken-by=houseofslovakia<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-captioned data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/BfZIgBngCOL\/\" data-instgrm-version=\"8\" style=\" background:#FFF; border:0; border-radius:3px; box-shadow:0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: 1px; max-width:560px; padding:0; width:99.375%; width:-webkit-calc(100% - 2px); width:calc(100% - 2px);\">\n<div style=\"padding:8px;\">\n<div style=\" background:#F8F8F8; line-height:0; margin-top:40px; padding:50.0% 0; text-align:center; width:100%;\">\n<div style=\" background:url(data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAACwAAAAsCAMAAAApWqozAAAABGdBTUEAALGPC\/xhBQAAAAFzUkdCAK7OHOkAAAAMUExURczMzPf399fX1+bm5mzY9AMAAADiSURBVDjLvZXbEsMgCES5\/P8\/t9FuRVCRmU73JWlzosgSIIZURCjo\/ad+EQJJB4Hv8BFt+IDpQoCx1wjOSBFhh2XssxEIYn3ulI\/6MNReE07UIWJEv8UEOWDS88LY97kqyTliJKKtuYBbruAyVh5wOHiXmpi5we58Ek028czwyuQdLKPG1Bkb4NnM+VeAnfHqn1k4+GPT6uGQcvu2h2OVuIf\/gWUFyy8OWEpdyZSa3aVCqpVoVvzZZ2VTnn2wU8qzVjDDetO90GSy9mVLqtgYSy231MxrY6I2gGqjrTY0L8fxCxfCBbhWrsYYAAAAAElFTkSuQmCC); display:block; height:44px; margin:0 auto -44px; position:relative; top:-22px; width:44px;\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p style=\" margin:8px 0 0 0; padding:0 4px;\"> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/BfZIgBngCOL\/\" style=\" color:#000; font-family:Arial,sans-serif; font-size:14px; font-style:normal; font-weight:normal; line-height:17px; text-decoration:none; word-wrap:break-word;\" target=\"_blank\">\u2744\ufe0fShiva &#8211; Final Fantasy X\u2744\ufe0f Bodypainting: @colormakeart (azul met\u00e1lico) Lips: @catharinehilloficial Wig, bra, prosthetics: @houseofslovakia Photo: @mosomenzari<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\" color:#c9c8cd; font-family:Arial,sans-serif; font-size:14px; line-height:17px; margin-bottom:0; margin-top:8px; overflow:hidden; padding:8px 0 7px; text-align:center; text-overflow:ellipsis; white-space:nowrap;\">A post shared by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/houseofslovakia\/\" style=\" color:#c9c8cd; font-family:Arial,sans-serif; font-size:14px; font-style:normal; font-weight:normal; line-height:17px;\" target=\"_blank\"> Slovakia<\/a> (@houseofslovakia) on <time style=\" font-family:Arial,sans-serif; font-size:14px; line-height:17px;\" datetime=\"2018-02-19T21:04:45+00:00\">Feb 19, 2018 at 1:04pm PST<\/time><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><script async defer src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><br \/>\nhttps:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/BdLCxpQgttD\/?taken-by=houseofslovakia<br \/>\nhttps:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/BbXQBLnASB2\/?taken-by=houseofslovakia<br \/>\nhttps:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/BZg2DPpAMwG\/?taken-by=houseofslovakia<br \/>\nhttps:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/BixNl68AR8L\/?taken-by=qwerrrkout<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Transformation Tuesday just got a whole lot QTer\u2026New queers featured every week!\u00a0Tag\u00a0us,\u00a0take a pic\u00a0of us and\u00a0follow\u00a0us on Instagram at\u00a0QWERRRKOUT, and you too could be the next QT!
