About Me

Me and my wife are very open-minded, friendly, reliable people who like sports and nature. Like traveling very much and discover cultures, meet the locals. Also interested in how people live in a different country, what are their routines, habits and how their lives are influenced by the history, culture.
We live in Budapest city center and go for a motorbike ride to escape from big city life and go to countryside to get some silence, fresh air.
We both work in an office and enjoy life on the weekend. Though we live in a big busy city we prefer going to the nature as much as we can. We do a lot of sport in winter and summer. Go hiking, riding bicycle, skating. We do not seem to a regular family. We do not have TV at home, prefer having long chats and play board games somethimes. We do not feel that we are havily part of the consumer society. We prefer keep and fix things. We value more get togethers, garden parties than long calls or virtual relations.

CURRENT MISSION
Go to Iceland, Albania, Azores islands

PHILOSOPHY
Help, to be helped!
It's good to think well,
It's devine to act well.
