About Me

I am a passionate traveler and an exploration addict (as everyone else may claim in this platform). Particularly with hitchhiking, I and my friends can go anywhere, set up our tents on wherever we lay our heads on, and the rest is love, peace, nature and chatting. I love playing chess (chess may consume noteworthy amount of my time, sometimes) I like playing badminton, pinpon and sometimes football; but, I’ve cut my football supporter veins long time ago. I really love friendly conversations and schmooses. I am also a passionate listener of intellectual discussions, and I can die for combining those new ideas with mines. I am kinda person who likes reading and writing a lot. Literature (books, plays, poems or any experimental textual exercises) and any work of art which refers to or reproduces those practices make up respectable amount of my leisure and research time. I think it is not possible to define yourself with “who-I-am” oriented sentences because there are innumerable feelings, thoughts, occasions, events and people passing in our lives; while this is the case, how can such a small bank define us? So, that is the reason why I've been talking about what I like to do so far. But, I can tell few things about so called about me. I idealize commune and collective life all around the world. I prefer not to define myself within any political norm or doctrine or within any national and religious faith; but, that is not a saying I am a liberal. Simply, I dream of a future without religions, genders, and I see myself as an “eco-politian” who seeks our social and political salvation from capitalism through nature and its peaceful cultivation.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I always like meeting new people spontaneously; but, I will be in Hungary for a long time and I plan to go there earlier than expected from my education period; so, I thought meeting local friends would be awesome for new social activities and experiences in hungary.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I discovered radio paradise.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am fond of computer games + I am highly literal on both software and hardware. I am good at cooking; actually, I am an experienced cook with 2 year working experience in cafeterias and small restaurants; but, I am always an experimental cook in whatever I cook. I am also very interested in new technologies of renewable energy, medicine and AI. I am very interested with handiworks and DIY project (in those occupations, I am mostly busy with recycling old computer parts and inventing new devices with zero energy consumption).
