About Me

Hi travelers 🌍

I’m offering a private room in my centrally located flat in Budapest, ideal for people who enjoy meeting locals and sharing experiences — while also having their own quiet space to rest.

This is not a free couch, but a paid stay that helps me cover housing costs, while still keeping the Couchsurfing spirit alive: good conversations, mutual respect, and cultural exchange.

What you’ll have:
• Your own private room
• Shared kitchen & bathroom
• A very central location — most sights reachable on foot or by public transport
• A host happy to share local tips, coffee, or conversation (when schedules allow)

This place is best suited for travelers who:
• Appreciate privacy and comfort
• Like connecting with locals, not just renting a room
• Prefer a home atmosphere over a hotel or hostel

If this resonates with you, tell me a bit about yourself and your trip — I’d love to host people who feel aligned with this way of traveling 😊

I’d be happy to share a link of the place based on request.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I’m on Couchsurfing because I genuinely enjoy meeting people from different places and sharing everyday life, not just space. I like conversations, exchanging perspectives, and making travel feel more human. While I offer a private room for a contribution, the reason I’m here is still connection — the kind that doesn’t happen in hotels.
