About Me

Because of the 10 message limit here are the days when I definitely can NOT host you, don't waste your limit on it please! (And just because a day is not listed here it does not mean that I can definitely host you.)

So, definitely NOT available:

November 27 - December 19
December 23-27

I CAN ONLY TAKE LAST MINUTE REQUESTS. Please, don't write to me more than 2 days before your arrival - I live a quite random life and I can't plan so much in advance.

________________________________

Wannabe green, lefty, flexitarian, naive but rational (strange, huh?) Love colours. Love food. Love travelling (Wow, so unique!) Crazy about markets. Running and orienteering. Being out in nature. Languages. Biking in the city. Volunteering with kids.
I try not to lie too much to myself.
I'm not always super cheerful, don't take it personally.

As for money I work as a tour guide. Or I teach Spanish.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have periods when I host and surf a lot, and periods when I don't do it at all. I understand people who are fed up with requests, in the high season I also get several in a day, but I still think that copy-paste e-mails are okay, cause sometimes you have to write a hundred letters to find a place. Sure it helps a lot if someone writes that "I'll cook you some fantastic veggie dinner from my country", but my decision-making is like this:

Do I have time, mood, space for people?

So that's all, you don't have to kiss my ass to be able to sleep at our place and you don't have to include any secret words, just be honest. I also don't always have the time to be with you a lot, but I think it's a huge help to just give a bed. This way I help people to travel even if they are low on money, and they get to see how local people live instead of staying in a lousy hostel. Of course, if I have the time, I'll be happy to share a meal with you, have a drink, etc. I like to take care of people, especially feeding them. But please don't expect me to give you a tour, I do it for a living so I usually don't want to do it in my free time as well.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

If I counted everybody I hosted through CS or hospitalityclub, it would be hundreds. And I've been hosted in so many nice homes already! Couchsurfing and hitchhiking make you realise how many kind and generous people are there in the world.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I worked in a Burgundian winery for 4 months just to say one (:

But my happiest and most breathtaking moments all happen in nature, mostly mountains.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you Hungarian or other dishes to cook, and some languages as well.
I can show you how orienteering works. (It's a sport.)
And I'd be pleased to introduce you to the wonderful world of Hungarian wines!
