About Me

I am 24 years old, I grew up in Bratislava. When I was six we lived for one year in Slovenia, I went there to an international english school, what was perfect because now I can speak the language - because of this and because of video games and movies. :)

In 2010 we moved to Mosonmagyaróvár, Hungary, just 15 km behind the Slovak borders. My father is Hungarian. I was able to speak Hungarian when I was like 4 years old, since then I lost a lot of grammar, but was trying to improve in the language ever since and I am quite able to communicate now. Later I moved to Prague to attend a Waldorf School (a.k.a. Steiner School). I found it very sad there are only few schools of this type in Central Europe, and sometimes in the future I would like to participate in the Waldorf movement somehow.

I studied mathematics and philosophy at Charles University, but did not finish. I lived in Prague until late 2018.

My hobbies - gardening, swimming, reading, playing piano, smoking - if that could count as a hobby. :D But I am a little bit lazy, so you could not see me in garden so often. :)
I play piano and I participated few times in eurythmy projects (that are the weird arty photos on my profile :D)

I like to travel. Hitchhike is my favourite mean of transport, because it is cheap (100% cheaper than anything else) and fun, you meet lot of different and interesting people.

Sometimes I find myself kind of introvert, so that is my long-term goal, to be more communicative and self-sharing.

PHILOSOPHY

The Universe is made of motion, the purpose of life is to experience, grow, develope. Bad things are inseperable part of this World and sometimes they give you an impulse to start moving.

Music, Movies, and Books

To list some of my favourite music bands, it is Red Hot Chili Peppers, Gorillaz, Pendulum, Arctic Monkeys, Glass Animals, Gogol Bordello, Metallica.. and also some czech folk musicians - Karel Plíhal and Jarek Nohavica, for instance.
My favourite literature genre is sci-fi and fantasy (Dan Simmons, Andrzej Sapkowski, Orson Scott Card, brothers B. and A. Strugackij), but I like also classical literature (like Čechov, Kafka, Hesse...)
I adore the Lord of the Rings trilogy.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was on a tour (twice) with the eurythmy group we founded - Flow - performing in the Czech republic, Slovakia and Germany. I find this art movement very inspirating and enriching, and I saw that we were bringing to our audience something that was special to them as well, which was really amazing feeling.
