ABOUT ME

I think I'm quite friendly and helping. I love to meet people from all over the world; it's so exciting to hear stories about other cultures. :)
And I love to spend time with my beloved friends and have crazy dances together :P

PHILOSOPHY

“Globalist”

"Fully aware of how many cultures there were on Earth, he was eager to become acquainted with all of them. Why? He believed that the best way to learn about your own culture is by familiarizing yourself with others. For your culture will best reveal its depth, value and sense only when you see how it is reflected by other cultures, which can shed the best, most penetrating light on your own, and thereby help you understand it best by yourself....In this multicultural world, people from those other cultures demand that they be treated as equal, command the same respect as we, and be in our good graces. It is a well-established given that there are no “higher” or “lower” cultures, and what makes a difference is just the result of specific geographical and historical conditions. But the problem is that we know little about other cultures, and rather than decent knowledge, we tend to make do with easy and false stereotypes...[However], only mutual knowledge makes understanding possible, and creates the only basis possible for peace, harmony, cooperation and exchange...[Understanding] why others behave differently from us...shows that those other modes of existence and understanding the world have their own logic and should be accepted, rather than generate war and aggression" - Ryszard Kapuscinski

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

As I live in a student dormitory, I can't be a host. But I'm looking forward to the time, when I have my own place and I can host people! :)
Anyway, I'm happy to have a tea/coffee with you or show interesting places in Budapest! Or just give some advice if needed.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have met amazing people from all over the world! :) It's also a good opportunity to see my culture differently.

Music, Movies, and Books

a lot to enlist :)
but for example my Nr.1. book/film/music at the moment is The unbearable lightness of being from Kundera/ The Edukators and all the films of Julio Medem/ Cocorosie.

But I could mention Wonderful life of Amélie, Donnie Darko, Los amantes del circulo polar, Weichmeister-harmonies, American beauty, Control...etc. I could talk about films for hours :P

Books: Orwell, Huxley, Kundera, Sartre...and dozens of others

Music: mainly rock. Also the oldies (like Pink Floyd) and the modern ones (Placebo, Muse); but I like world and etno music, triphop too.

Teach, Learn, Share

We won’t have a thing
So we’ve got nothing to lose
We can all be free
Maybe not with words
Maybe not with a look
But with your mind
