About Me

Well, if you see a small redhead with some cameras hanging around her neck or trying to use them, that's definitely me. I mostly shoot film these days: https://www.instagram.com/szeme_se/

Almost 10 years ago, I spent a year as an Erasmus student in Romania. It had a quite big effect on my life, since then I've been travelling quite a lot, volunteering (AEISEC in Ukraine) and living abroad (2 years in Poland). I'm quite interested in Central Asia, the Middle East and the Caucasus region.

I like to surround myself with interesting personalities who can make me think and reconsider my beliefs. I like to travel to places I don't know much about and learn through experience.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

When I'm travelling I like to use CS to meet locals, participate on some events.
I'm planning to join the CS events in Budapest these days and probably host some people.
