About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Bring sunshine to others life!

ABOUT ME

At a young age I realised that life is not a "rehersal" but the "show" itself. The only problem is that I have not decided what role should I play. Hoping that travelling the world and meeting new friends will help me find my own groove. I also understand that life is not just a one way street and I have to give something back. How? I would like to learn that too during my travels with humor and good will.

PHILOSOPHY

There are only two pleasures in life: "Creating and Sharing". What's the use to watch a beautiful sunset at the ocean if you don't have somebody to turn to and ask: "It's nice!Isn't it?" I plan ahead if I would live for ever and live every day like it was my last.
Wether you think you can, or can not, you are right! -Henry Ford.
I love movies, adventure comedies,and I think the last movies I will watch, is my life so I decided to be a good producer, to make sure I enjoy! :D

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

above looking for places to crash and return the favour for others, I am genuinely excited to participate in CS2 Project, since I have a feeling that by getting to know people in a safe way from all walks of life, from all over this little blue planet, I could be a part in making it a better world.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I had been Couch surfing around, and also hosted several people in Budapest. Love meeting new people and have fun, share philosophy of life, laugh and discover cities. Also showed up Meetings Budapest, Montreal, Vancouver..

Interests

Deep sea diving to mountain climbing and anything in between: Like: diving, sailing, water-skiing, driving,kayaking,swimming,bicycle,jogging,traveling, to sailplane etc.
Exchange ideas with old and new friends about our experiences, life, talk about books, movies,love and friendship.My new hobby is platform diving!! :)
I like healthy food, and I am vegetarian too since 2009.

Music, Movies, and Books

Although I like to read good books(but not a book worm),watch movies(but not a movie buff)only ones with deeper meaning. I enjoy all kinds of music, depends of my current mood. I feel I'll have a better understandig and appreciation for the world through works of art, if I had a chance to smell it first in the real life. Music: REM, Diana Krall, Depesh Mode, Sara Brightman, Morchiba, Nickelback, Heddway, Jack Jonson,Greenday, Luciano Pavarotti, Killers...
Books: As a Man Thinketh (by James Allen), the secret, unlimited power, think and grow rich, the power of now,

Teach, Learn, Share
