About Me

Dont ask me to describe myself because I dont believe that you can have an idea about someone if you don't meet in real.

but if you need a hint: open minded, funny and a little bit crazy guy and I acquire my life energy from laughing.=)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To know new faces and new places. I dont care much about museums but city life. A cozy restaurant or a hidden bar is more welcome than touristic stuff.

Interests

Photography provides me to see the environment with a different point of view

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Couple of years ago I have fulfilled my ultimate travel plan with my motorbike in Balkans. 7 countries 10 cities more than 3000Kms on 2 wheels alone! I wont give you spoilers here but if we meet you will definitely hear some stories about :)

I and my 10 university friends decided to go a faraway city by train without money at midnight. Then we did. We walk around the empty streets, sing with a guitar, only ate sesame seeds with hot tea, played with homeless animals. It was a wonderful experience for all of us and it was just the beginning for the summer holiday at Southern coasts with same crew =)

Amsterdam, Berlin, and Budapest, these 3 cities were my Couchsurfing stops during my fascinating and lil bit exhausting European trip. There are so many things to talk about but this area is not big enough =)

Before CS, I hitchhiked lots of times and I met really interesting people during the way. Some of them were weird but generally, these trips were the funniest travels of my life
