I'm (Jankó) from Budapest, where I live together with my husband Marco, who is originally from Germany. I'm often travelling and surfing alone, but in Budapest we're usually hosting together.

Important to us: Since tourism has a significant impact on the climate, we prefer to host travelers who choose climate-friendly ways of getting around. While we understand that flying between continents is often necessary, within Europe we encourage the use of its excellent train and bus networks. To stay true to our values, we host travelers who avoid flying within Europe.

We love to explore the world by travelling and by hosting as well. Hosting is sometimes like travelling, it's like being a traveller in your own city, so if we don't have enough time to travel, we host, it's lovely :) The best way of learning about the world is meeting people. Seeing tourist attractions is important, and they are interesting (especially architecture), but doesn't necessarily let you feel the real spirit of the place you're visiting. People don't live in a city, they are the city by themselves. That's why we are interested in people who live there, that's why we love to be hosted by locals. It's the best way to get to know how people live in the place we are visiting.

Oh, and we love languages, we appreciate people a lot who actually make some effort to learn any strange languages :)

And we love Miranda, such fun!

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

That's really the best way to get to know the word, and that's also very good way to make new friends. Significant amount of our friends are from here :)

教，学，和分享

I (Jankó) can teach everything about railways, he can explain why less trains in a timetable are more expensive for the state then more. And he can talk a lot about Hungarian and European politics.

Marco can teach how to crochet hair, how to do crappy overtone singing, how to speak German or how to learn Hungarian :)

Both of us can teach how to cook authentic vegetarian Hungarian dishes, and we can teach a lot about Budapest architecture and history:)
