Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Couchsurfing idea was spread by my friends who are crazy travelers and young searching souls. And when I read about it, I understood that it is a genius idea to gather people like this and get to know each other.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

4 years ago I joined couchsurfing community! As I live in quiet many places during the year, I could host people only in Hungary, Budapest! Honestly, I realized that it's an amazing way to communicate with people from countries you just could dream to visit someday!

Interests

All of my interests are related to culture - starting from etno,funk, and jazz music, theatre and uncommercial European movies festivals, modern dances and sport like cycling, swimming and climbing.
What is more, when I have an occasion I love to discover different parts of the world! This summer's goal is to explore Balkans!

Kusturica "Black cat, white cat", Kieslowski "Three colours", L. von Trier "Antichrist", "Idiots", and many more when you almost lose the number counting how many are seen and how much is ahead!
Books and magazines - educative, related with International Relations field, culture, and ecological lifestyle.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Despite the terrible fear of water, I determined myself for making some exercises with canoe in the water!

One summer season I tried to work on tour bike - rikshaw in Copenhagen and managed to drive 4 people in it!

I did a free fall jump from the climbing tower which was an amazing experience!!!

Teach, Learn, Share

Few seasons I have been working in a restaurant where I gained some knowledge to make a delicious light food in a very quick way and some useful tricks in the kitchen! I would love sharing my experience!

I also fancy dancing especially Latin dances, so I believe I would be able to teach few salsa steps:)

And I also love sharing knowledge about music or
documentary movies! There are so many curious people in the world that sometimes while sharing things among each other you can discover it:)
