I'm Vero, I am currently an architecture student at Cornell. I am Hungarian by blood but also American on paper. When I was growing up, my family moved a lot, so travelling became integral to my personality. Now that I am on my own, I still structure my life around visiting places I haven't been to.

I love doing things that are out of my comfort zone (kind of an adrenaline junkie)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The hardest thing I ever had to do I think was when I climbed my first mountain, a glacierized peak, without any training or experience. I learned how to use crampons and an ice ax on the mountain. (thank god I went with experienced climbers)

Teach, Learn, Share

I have perfected my egg making skills which I am happy to share.
I can teach you how versatile your shoelaces can be when one has to transform appearance under time pressure....
I would love to learn about the culture of the places I am visiting as well as things obvious to the locals but not so obvious to us outsiders.
