Hi, I'm Gabor from Hungary. I like spending time away from the screen, having deeper conversations, reading (mostly non-fiction) and thinking about cultural, social issues as a dilettante. I love playing and listening to music of many kinds, tasting (vegan) food, and I don't regret drinking beers if they're good (even if they're overpriced). I also recently learned how to clean up / tidy up after myself, and I'm not afraid to use that skill.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

When I go travelling, I'd like to meet the better side of places: people. I think Couchsurfing is the tool for that. Lately I've been interested in learning languages as a way of understanding different cultures (nowadays I'm trying to learn Spanish and Dutch). Living abroad means that I have to encounter small and large contrasts with a foreign culture which I really enjoy.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm happy to teach playing the guitar, Hungarian (for the crazy people interested), and programming.
