About Me

I'm a child psychologist from Budapest, Hungary, who makes upcycled jewelry in her spare time. I like traveling, eating, laughing, getting to know new people, taking photos, and wearing hats.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've tried couchsurfing several times before, and those were my best travel experiences, because this way I get to live in a place like the locals, and see the city from a different angle. I stayed like this in New York three times, and once in Canterbury.

Interests

I'm very interested in different cultures and their folklore, because I study "fairytale psychology" (it's a therapeutic method developed in Hungary). I also like learning new recipes, and trying out local food. If I visit a new place, I'm most interested in the way people live there, I like to discover hidden vintage shops, local markets, small pubs and restaurants, nice parks, bookshops, art galleries, or just wander around in the streets with an open eye (and my camera of course).
