Hi everyone, I'm Izabella, a 25 years old pharmacist from Hungary. Usually I'm living in Szeged, a beautiful, historical city next to river Tisza.
I've been doing my PhD in pharmacology since 2015. On working days I'm in the lab, searching new anticancer drugs. In my free time I hang out with fellow students and other friends, or enjoy my hobbies.
During my university years I've been thinking all the time, that how great would be live and study abroad. So when I got the chance to study in Taiwan I seized the opportunity.
Now, I'm participating in an exchange program with a medical university in Kaohsiung for a half year. It's my first time in Asia, and I'm impressed by the culture and the totally unique lifestyle. I would like to discover this beautiful land during my time here, so I plan to travel as much as possible.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

At school, I've always enjoyed the company of foreigners, their stories, and their different point of view towards the world. Hence, my friend from home suggested me to join to Couchsurfing, because he had amazing experiences about it.

Intereses

Reading is my first serious hobby, since age 6. I saw the world through books, and because of that, I've started to like travelling and painting also. The art of Tolkien is very important for me, it's showed the greatness of get acquainted with new lands and cultures. At first, I painted my favourite parts of my reading experiences, nowadays I make paintings about the nature.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

Hungarian language is not well-known in the world, so I teach happily a few words to my hosts, if they want it.

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

We can share experiences about many topics, like lifestyle, work, science or art, and hopefully through these conversations we can learn from each other. And I can cook some delicious hungarian dish! :)
