About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Feel the spirit of living in the countryside. Trying to enjoy life without traveling for a loooong time now coz of the pandemia :/

ABOUT ME

I like suprises but I don't like being scared.
I like snow but don't like rain.
I love cheese but I reject mushroom.
I like hitch-hiking but I don't like hiking.
I love being so busy that I only go home to sleep but I also like staying at home and being lazy.
I love vegetarian food but I also eat meat. Not much meat though.
I im interested in zodiac but I don't generalize people.
I prefer wine than beer.
I prefer postcards than e-mails.
I prefer cycling than walking.
I prefer art cinema than watch the movie at home.
I prefer local bars than too tourist spots.
I like cold coffee but also warm.
I prefer burned toast over normal.
I prefer walking on the grass barefoot than in shoes.
I prefer peaceful cemeteries over crowded tourist areas.

PHILOSOPHY

If the snow is yellow, don't eat it! (Frank Zappa)
I am not as normal, as appear. (Woody A.)
The traveller sees what he sees, the tourist sees what he has come to see. (G. K. Chesterton)

Interests

people. societies. cultural differences.
movies. books. contemporary theatre. modern art museums. video and photo-editing. languages.
listening musics and go for concerts. playing in djembe.
gastronomy. wine.
traveling and traveling stories.

I started to collect magnets on my fridge, so I would be very happy if you bring me one from your country/city/town... :)

People I especially enjoy:
People who can share but also able to listen.
People who naturally smile or laugh a lot, and they can laugh even at themselves.
People with who I can enjoy sometimes the silence too without feeling ourselves uncomfortable because of those speechless minutes. Silence speaks all languages.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I hope I haven't seen the most amazing yet!

Teach, Learn, Share

Don’t tell me the moon is shining; show me the glint of light on broken glass!

Anyway, I can teach you Hungarian language - I am a language teacher. It's one of the most difficult language in the world... because of that teaching it is also not so simple :) I would also share my knowledge about Hungarian wines as we are wine geeks with my bf. If you are into it, we can also taste some together :)

I'd like to know at least some sentences in different languages...I would be more than happy if you would teach me a song! :)
