Overview
About Me
Taking a couple of years break between 2 stages of traveling the world, living in random places and doing random things, now earning some money for the next round to not go totally poor.
Update: I almost made to the second stage, moved to Portugal, world travel is back soon :)
I'm not taking any requests currently as I'm currently travelling, working as a digital nomad.
Interested in meeting people from other cultures, get to know their worldview, discuss about world issues.
Also like photography, but often I'm just too lazy to develop the photos.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
mainly hosting people, showing around, cooking something Hungarian, maybe even some CS meetings, but not too much
we had a bit of too much CS in my previous place, so just a bit more relaxed now

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Lost of random stories, including:
Jacuzzi on a frozen lake, in Switzerland
sailing a ship on the Caribbean from Panama to Cartagena, Colombia
hitchhiking through Sicily with a French guy I met just 2 days before
not yet done, but in the plans: quit my job and do a full year of travels in Latin-America - need to learn Portuguese though until then
Teach, Learn, Share
Go out and travel, never fear the unexpected.
Ask me for random travel stories
Since I'm receiving a really huge amount of requests, I have to make a tough selection on who I'm actually hosting.
The intention is to give the proper attention to those who I end up hosting and not just offer a place to sleep.
I collected some ideas upon which I decide for/against you:
- if you read my profile, are aware of my name, that's generally a good start
- coming for one night is not such a good idea, as we'd barely have time to talk and get to know each other
- you'll be preferred if you have a special story or an exceptionally good request
- region preferences go for Latin-America and Spain
- if you seem to be a serious requester, I'll read your references. If you don't have any, tough luck
What I Can Share with Hosts
I actually don't surf that much (yet) as I'm always making up plans in the last moment, when there's only time for emergency requests. And I have some connections still remaining from my time in AIESEC, that can prove fairly useful
I can offer some cooking though, plus sharing some of my travel stories
Countries I’ve Lived In
Colombia, Dominican Republic, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Mexico, Portugal, Switzerland, United States
