Hello dear fellow traveller!

I’m János, a 37-year-old Hungarian currently living in the calm, green and charming city of Bonn. I’m here for work, but what really excites me is meeting people from all around the world, because I truly believe everyone carries a story worth hearing.

I’m an open-minded, curious and communicative person who enjoys deep conversations, art, music and reading (I studied art history and literature in Budapest). Movement is also an essential part of my life: I am a certified fitness instructor, I practice yoga regularly, and I’m interested in both its psychological and spiritual dimensions.

Whether you feel like visiting a museum (Bonn and Cologne have some great ones), going to a concert, trying a yoga studio, or hitting the gym, I’m happy to join. As a bonus, I’m always glad to share fitness tips. <3

One of the things I love about Bonn is its location: Cologne, Düsseldorf, Aachen, Maastricht, Liège, Luxembourg, Brussels and Antwerp are all within easy reach; perfect for spontaneous explorations.

I speak English fluently, Hungarian as my mother tongue, some French, and I’m currently learning German.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I’m here to meet people, simply put. I believe that a bit of randomness and unpredictability makes life feel truly alive. Let’s exchange stories, perspectives and experiences. I’m genuinely curious about you. :)
