CURRENT MISSION

Trying to run away

ABOUT ME

First impression: Right-wing dyke who talks too much.
For the rest, you gotta get to know me in person - you'll probably regret it but most people say I'm interesting, so... why not.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is pain, but this is the only one we get.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I can host people, but I can't afford travel fees (having bread-and-electricity problems) at this present time, but if you know of a way to secure employment outside Hungary, I'd be interested in that. I'd like to host people first, though.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I gave a guided tour of Győr to a French couple who met me through this site a few years ago, that's all.

Interests

I'm primarily a history nerd, but also interested in scientific stuff. I'm also a practicing poet, but to read I'd rather choose a novel or a textbook. Slight interest in politics. And I like nature, especially mountains and cats.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Seen: cats. I know, I know, but I do think cats are amazing.
Done: spent a night among the homeless - no kidding, it was a totally mind-broadening experience.

Teach, Learn, Share

Erm... sorry, I have no skills at all. But I'll try to do anything you ask me to.
