About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To see the world and to meet interesting people

ABOUT ME

I am really not a usual person. I held a lecture about prehistoric animals and plants around the age of 8 and I learned all the chemical elements (more than 100 of them) around that age. At that time I was very much oriented towards sciences, and from the age of 18, people and human sciences started to interest me very much. I was always very interested in learning more in many subjects and areas. In the recent years, I started traveling within Hungary, in the neighboring countries and to the rest of Europe. I plan to travel more, mostly to Europe, but later possibly to other continents as well. I would also be happy to show Budapest or Hungary to anyone who comes here.

I like to meet and talk to interesting people, and also people from other countries. That is also a way to practice English. I use English in my daily work and it is very good to practice English in non-work situations as well. I have passive skills in German, Dutch and Russian and I know a few Finnish words (I lived two years in Finland, I liked it).

I do not smoke and do not drink alcohol. Some of my physical characteristics: 190 cm tall, 76 kg heavy, brown eyes, brown, short hair. This means that it is probably easy to find me in a crowded place.

PHILOSOPHY

I would rather detail this when we meet.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I would like to surf and host. I also let my friends know that this project exists and they can join.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I was couch surfing a couple of times in my life - not through this project, but through friends or family members. It was definitely better than a hotel - I was not alone, I had good company. We even went to museums together, went shopping, had a dinner together, etc.
I have also hosted some people, not through this project, and I liked that too.

Music, Movies, and Books

Currently I am reading non-fiction books - books I can learn from. I sometimes also read books in my profession.
I like sci-fi, adventure and documentary movies.
I like pleasant melodies and not some kind of "modern" music. I do not go to concerts and do not collect music, but when I hear good music in the radio, I do enjoy it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

There are more than one, there are many. I can detail it when we meet.

Teach, Learn, Share

See my areas of interest - I could certainly learn more in any one of them, but also teach something to others.
