CURRENT MISSION

Want to see the Wizard, the wonderful wizard of Oz....Hope he lives on the West Coast!

ABOUT ME

I have just finished an incredible year living and working in New York and want to set out to explore the Western part of the US. My fascination with discovering different cultures and the intricate maze of cities is as insatiable as my hunger for delicious dishes. You cannot find a more enthusiastic cook, who is excited to learn new recipes! I believe that if you want to discover every crook of a city you should walk as much as you possibly can during the day and dance as hard as you like during the night...

PHILOSOPHY

"The most convincing proof that humanity needs fiction is the fact of dreaming." Ignes Sondré

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

As long as I am still in the US I am unable to host, but I look forward to hosting when I go home to Budapest. Until then I am happy to tell what to see in my hometown, Budapest and in the cities I have stayed in Europe.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I am a newbie, but I have heard the most amazing stories from my friends, who travelled all around with the help of CS. It's so much fun to directly experience a place's culture through the hosts that are kind to show you why they choose that part of the world as their home.

Interests

Love stories, no matter what package they come in.... from Shakespeare to a story about why there is a hole, in a shape of a cork, on the ceiling.
Any kind of music (from guilty pleasure POP, through classical, to Post -Rock) and dancing (especially Cuban Salsa)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sailed all around the Adriatic; visited islands that you can only access via a boat, in the middle of the sea.
Ate fresh bread, olives and drank wine barefoot at the beach of Nice, in the French Riviera.
Helped to rebuild a house on one of the tops of the Carpathian Mountains, in the middle of Transylvania. After our work was done, drank some shots of the finest local palinka (fruit brandy) and danced until the morning.
