About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Enjoy KL and get to Sydney by mid-July

ABOUT ME

I was born in Budapest, but lived in Vancouver and near Brussels for a while. Right now I'm based in Kuala Lumpur for 2 months and I'll travel further to Sydney in the summer. I consider myself being an open minded and friendly person. I like to speak and learn different languages, being with international people. I'm interested in photography, movies, people, sports.

PHILOSOPHY

Try to live my life doing whatever I like to do. Life is too short, so I'm trying to get the most out of it.
Most of the time an honest smile says more than a million words.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

During 2008 I hosted a lot, but I stopped that lately. Since I'm on travel in Asia and Australia now, I try to meet new people and try to learn about different cultures.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

All the people I had met so far through CS were very polite, respectful and friendly, all of them a different personality, each of them brought different colors to my everyday life. The only negative experience I had is that someone requested my couch but never showed up. Be that the worse.

Interests

photography, traveling, languages, people, skate and snowboarding, parties

Music, Movies, and Books

In the Name of the Father, The Exorcist, Se7en, Alien, The Usual Suspects, hard to list them all.

Ultimately I listen to a lot of rap and hip hop: Wu-Tang Clan, The Roots, Notorious BIG, Busta Rhymes, Common. But I also like Bob Marley, Dylan, Sinatra, or many times I listen to electronic music: chill, downtempo, dubstep, house, or everything that is good to listen to.

I just started to read the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy.

Travel books.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I left my job 2 months ago to live my life instead of dreaming about living it. The amazing thing about it is that I'm constantly thinking: why haven't I done that much earlier??

Teach, Learn, Share

I always like to learn various languages or at least words that help me survive in whatever situation.

I know a little about digital photography and digital enhancement of images.
