Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
to work and travel as a scuba instructor between periods of being at home with my family and work with friends on cool Valyo projects (:
ABOUT ME
My range of interests is quite wide but especially fine arts, the art of dance and the stage fascinate me. For a while it was my hobby to go to the theater and watch a play or a performance 5-6 times a week. My other passion is traveling. Right now I travel with my job, which means I spend 5 to 7 months each locations where I move to. Sometimes I return for an extra season. I try to see and discover as much as I can, to grow by experiencing different cultures and by learning from the people I get to know along my way.
In 2012, after almost 8 years, I really fed up with well-established "8 hours office jobs" so I quit and started to organize my new life. This led me to become a scuba instructor and to establish an NGO (valyo.hu) with my friends in Budapest. I love to work on our Danube-bank located projects but at the same time ocean is calling me so badly... (what a pity that these two can't be done in the same country). Therefore I try to share my time between Hungary and somewhere where dives are great. During the last years I've lived in the Caribbean Mexico, Thailand, Indonesia, Costa Rica, Egypt and Mallorca, Spain.
