About Me

I am 24 years old and currently working as an assistant editor and tv show host at the kids channel of the national television. Besides, I study Media and Communication in Budapest. Also, I am part of an improv group and produce and write rap music to keep my mind from the excruciatingly painful feeling of being bored.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

People with the mindset of hosting random and (most likely) unknown travellers are truly a gem for this world. This is what makes phenomenal friendships and truly one of a kind experiences. Nobody can conjure up an interesting image of a place as locals do - usually they just have to spice it up with a few personal story here and there. That sounds fairly easy on one hand, on the other, however, it feels way too real for me to miss it.

Interests

Current media trends, kids show methodology and the vastness of rap culture is fun. Improv games and techiques are also exciting but my knowledge is rather subject to improvement on those fields.

Music, Movies, and Books

Rap music lessssgooo. And any other type of music really. Memes about weird music combination choices are literally based on me. With that being said, my taste in music is flawless. Sounds a bit cocky but I wasn't born with a pretty face or a clever mind so I guess I deserve that.
Lately, I am very into Jack Reacher novels - you can't go wrong on either one of those.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hey mom, look! I'm on television!
Okay that sounds way more interesting as it is - or as it was before youtube, you know, when being on tv screen had a certain prestige - but I am proud I made it to a tv host.
Also, I'm quite fond of my hiking achievements and rap albums.

Teach, Learn, Share

Dance, theater and rap music. Too basic? I know. However... considering the fact that I have a seemingly unique take on these (take that with an ideal amount of grain of salt in this tasty qualitative research soup) soo with that unique insight I can possibly present them from a different and hopefully more understandable way.

What I Can Share with Hosts

As a former tourist guide I know good stories and memories. Some of them are fun, some of them are edifying.
Also, I know I wrote about this previously but I had this unnerving habit of overthinking which on the contrary, wonderfully helps me to understand vastly different viewpoints or explain things so other could understend them from their viewpoints.
