About Me

Countries which are on my list of things to visit are the follows: Belgium, Denmark, Portugal, Iceland, Ukraine
Outside Europe: Thailand, Bali, Australia, Dubai, maybe US

ABOUT ME

I enjoy hiking, cycling, meeting up with people, visiting various art galleries as well as going out and socialising with new people. I try to do something different everyday and something that scares me everyday as well. I enjoy long distance running and would say running the 25th Athens Classic Marathon five years ago was certainly one of the high points in my life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I hosted Szilvie&Balazs in 2007 summer and afterwards we travelled together around Wales.

I hosted Elisabetta (Italy), Nui (Thailand) from London and at the same time I hosted Agnes (Stockholm) in August 2008. We spent three lovely days together in Bristol and had good conversations.

I guided my Hungarian friends, Feco, Andras in Transylvania in 2003 and 2004.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was a child and it was summer. We went up to the mountains with my parents and we enjoyed playing snowballs. (When I was about 7 years old)

An incredible weekend in Budapest with my brother. 3 days, no sleep :) (summer, 2000)

25th Athens Classic Marathon (November 2007)

Taking a fjord tour in Oslo. (June 2008)

Wandering in Transylvania with my friends. Bucec, above 2500 meters. (1997,2003,2004,2015)

Preparing for my 2500 km cycling from England to Hungary was the best thing I have done and kept me motivated for many years.
