About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Finding a healthy balance with the different sides of my personality.

ABOUT ME

I take myself for a cool and curious person. I laugh on the jokes I find funny, and I'm mostly open to everything new. I'm very attached to my roots, but I have a gypsy soul - my heart (and mind) is always on the road somewhere. :)

PHILOSOPHY

The more I see, the less I know.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

**during covid i turned my back on this platform, and after it normalized, i moved twice and completely immersed in movie productions. Space is just about to settle (or maybe i just got used to the higher waves of constant change) around me and almost ready to host again! **

Hosting is half-travelling while surfing is an opportunity to experience local culture as it is, not only the way tourism is trying to sell it to you. Both helps me keep an objective and curious eye on the world. :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far so good! I've met super lovely people both host and surf-wise. CS is one of my way to get lost and be found, to connect with a culture first-hand. It's so genius, I could kiss the person who invented it!

Interests

Find the hidden treasures of every city, person or moment.

Also dancing, going to concerts and festivals, reading good books, watching good movies and observing strangers (not the creepy way.)

Music, Movies, and Books

MUSIC. There are two types of music - good and bad. Every genre has its geniuses, so it's my kinda-hobby to find them through a diverse taste of music. Literally, anything between classical and techno. Depends on mood and phase in life which I'm more focused on though.

Books: Bukowski, Kundera, Szerb Antal, Vonnegut, Herman Hesse, Murakami...plus an endless list of supposedly next-favourites I haven't found the time to read yet

Movies: Forrest Gump, Salt of the Earth, Samsara, Wes Anderson, Jim Jarmush and Wachowski movies

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Ok, let's leave this section for the face-to-face. :)

Teach, Learn, Share

LEARN
I started learning Spanish and German which came to a hault in the past few years. Would be great to practice it with someone, to polish it a little bit...or basically just learn it from scratch again :D

Photography. It would be amazing if someone could teach me with their artistic insights. Cause I'm pretty clumsy with the camera.

TEACH
Hungarian language, cuisine, folk dance.
Belly dance.

What I Can Share with Hosts

My travel experiences, some good-old Hungarian jokes and hopefully lot of fun and memorable moments! :)
