Hi everyone!
My name is Tünde, I'm a 22-year-old Hungarian girl, living close to Budapest. I really enjoy meeting up with new people, so if you're interested in exploring the beauty of Budapest together or just have a drink/meal with me, let me know! :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

One of my good friends is travelling a lot, and almost always through Couchsurfing. Since he knows that I also love travelling, he encouraged me to register. In the last 3 years somehow I never got to use this platform to host/stay somewhere, but I'm an active member of AIESEC in Hungary, and I've been hosting some people from Brazil, Colombia, Malaysia, Ukrain, and so on...I spent an exchange semester in The Netherlands, and I'm also enjoying the multinational atmosphere a lot - I'd like meet as many new people and visit as many new places as possible. I'd like to become an active member of the Couchsurfing community! :)

Interests

Martial arts (karate, kendo, and also a little kali) But don't be afraid, I'm also a big fan of yoga & meditation ;)
I've been learning the Chinese language for 3 years now, and I'm always looking for opportunities to practise. One of my big dreams is to travel to the East!
I also love cooking - I have some food allergies, so I like trying out new alternatives every week.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love going to rock concerts (the Slash concert last summer was one of the most awesome experiences I've ever had) and just rage to the guitar riffs and let the steam off, but I also adore classical music - the 7th symphony of Beethoven is my all time favourite!
Movies: American Beauty, 12 angry men, Rear window, Poirot...I LOVE old movies! :)
I love the books of Oscar Wilde - his "Carpe Diem" perception can teach a lot to us all.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

2 years ago I was studying Esperanto and I was offered the opportunity to travel to Sardinia, to an Esperanto Festival. It was the first time I travelled alone and it was a great adventure, since I didn't know anyone there and I was learning Esperanto only for 4 months that time, so also communicating with the people wasn't easy. It was really challenging and hard at first, but it turned out to be a life-changing event for me - I learned there a lot about how to handle difficult situations, how to let things go and just truly enjoy life. I'm really grateful for this experience! :)
