About Me

I've recently graduated from university and I'm eager to discover the world! I love exploring new places, meeting people and learning about culture.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to discover the world, get to know its people, culture and heritage. Travelling is more than only visiting cities, what really matters, are the personal experiences and conversations.

Interests

In my free time, I mostly do community organizing, I'm member of several student organisations and I enjoy working on projects together.
As I'm curious about the world and I like exploring it, for recreation, I usually choose to visit an exposition, see a play at a theatre or read a good book. I also love spending time in the nature, in the mountains, especially in the form of hiking

Music, Movies, and Books

Perhaps my favourites are these:

books: Márquez: Love in the Time of Cholera; Stendhal: The Red and the Black; Tolstoy: Anna Karenina; Kundera: The Unbearable Lightness of Being

movies: Forrest Gump, A Beautiful Mind, Groundhog Day, Le Fabuleux Destin d'Amélie Poulain

series: Brooklyn 99

music: literally everything, depending on mood. My favourite genres are classical music (particularly Beethoven, Rossini, Debussy), jazz and Hungarian alternative rock.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Windsurfing - I've never imagined that I would do something like that, especially during an Erasmus in the French Alps. However, I got to the sports courses registration too late and there were available places only at this one. Will of fate? Perhaps, but it is certain that eventually I ended up sailing on a clear mountain lake, finding one of my favourite sports.

moot courts - I'm passionate about learning and debating, that is why I immensely enjoyed when two years ago I took part in one of the largest mock trial competition in Washington D.C., which was an unforgettable, life-changing experience
