CURRENT MISSION

To know the world as it is

ABOUT ME

Hello everybody!
I'm an English teacher but apart from teaching I like travelling and getting to know other people and cultures. I can't live without music either, so I sing and play in several choirs/bands. Me and my wife have three boys (two twins and a third one) so now they've become an integral part of our life too.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I really like travelling and meeting with new people and I'm just fascinated about this community. I'm looking forward to lasting relationships and experiences.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have arranged several international events (eg. IYP) where young people participated from different countries of Europe. During these events we hosted people from all over Europe. Also, I've been hosted by people especially in Germany and the United Kingdom.

Interests

Music, volleyball, squash, table tennis, travelling, collecting stamps and teaching.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music is above all. I love all kinds of music from Renaissance music (eg. Palestrina) to symphoic power metal (eg. Luca Turilli). :)
Movies: sci-fi, fantasy, documentaries
Books: Basically all genres that have originality. Interestingly the books I've enjoyed the most are classical books like Republic from Plato. :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Our sons are the most amazing things that have happened in my life. Apart from that it was quite amazing singing the Hungarian national anthem in front of about 500 people in Guinea-Bissau.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love teaching (I'm a teacher after all) but I'm interested in almost everything especially getting to know new cultures, people, traditions, etc.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I play the piano and sing. :) I can share whatever you wish to know about my country, Hungary. There are plenty of travelling stories to share, too. :)
I am an avid postcard collector holding a Guinness World Record of receiving postcards from every entity in the world (you can check out the collection at: http://peterslettercollection.blogspot.com). There's a story behind all cards that I'm eager to share.
