CURRENT MISSION

Previously I wanted to save the world, now I changed my plans and I just want to feel good:) Can you help me with that?:)Someone else can save the world in the meantime:)

ABOUT ME

Childhood: (1984 until 2003-or perhaps until today)I was born in a wonderful little village in the eastern part of Hungary.This is the place where I spent my childhood, started the school and fell in love first in my life.Student years(from 2003-2008)Then I wanted something more and went to study to the capital.I spent 5 fantastic years in a university where I was-dreaming of a diplomat carreer(and saving the world of course),-learned international relations,languages,-and took hard lessons of life(my special school subjects were "love and disappointment-theory and practice","introduction to the party and cultural life of Budapest","How to make friends for a lifetime","Cooking,ironing and other adult activities".Working at Diageo(2008-2011)Then I graduated and the "save the world" project did not start in time so I decided to sell my soul to devil(and money)and started to work for an international company. In spite of the wonderful people I met there and good memories I collected, I always had the feeling that this office is not my place. EVS volunteering (From September 2011-until 2012 july)So after 3 years I quited and started to work as a european volunteer in France. I worked in a school for 10 month on showing the hungarian culture to french children and working an eco-project with them, and I hope that I could do some very small good to this community,make new friends,discover a new culture, and learned the french language, now I can speak quite well:)

2012 july till today: Now I live in Budapest again, work for an international company (but this time I enjoy it), and I write articles about cultural events in my free time:)

PHILOSOPHY

I have an imaginatory photo album in my hearth and I spend my life to fill it with as many memories as I can. Then I would like to take this photo album and leaf it through just one hour before I die, so that I can recall how wonderful life I had, and I can say it's okay to die now, because I lived enough, and did enough and loved enough. And perhaps this imaginatory photo album will help me not to get so bored in the very last hour of my life, waiting for to die.
