I'm a Hungarian, 25 years old law student from Budapest having lived in France, Belgium and born in Syria. I'm omnivore to all culture, and like to have smart conversations. That's in a nutshell.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Being a keen traveller, I believe the best way to grasp the spirit of a country is through the people who live in. And unfortunately I don't know people from all the countries, though it is in process ;), therefore using Couchsurfing is my way to getting know locals.

Interests

Dances by doing and watching
