Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I feel most alive when I am travelling. And when I am not travelling, I hope some traveller will bring a little bit of that aliveness with them to my home.
Music, Movies, and Books
I am currently reading the Three Body Problem trilogy and it is freaking amazing. My favourite novel is probably Andy Weir: Project Hail Mary. I loved 1984. I love the Illiad and the Odyssey - but my friends say it is annoying when I talk about it, so I tend not to ๐ I listen to rock and related genres, but I am more open now (compared to 16 year old self ๐) and I listen to some other music 20% of the time. Also Rick and Morty BUSHLAND ADVENTURES and Ciggy butt brain.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
I have adopted a dog, and she is the most amazing, loving little being in the world. (She is currently living with my sister.)
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach you about Hungary in general, nonprofit fundraising, and the pitfalls of amateur political organizations. I can tell you about my 6 months long self discovery trip around Europe and Asia, and ramble about Vipassana meditation. I can share things I learned about family, friendships, relationships as well as all the questions I still have.
What I Can Share With Hosts
I am tidy and respectful. I am looking for nice experiences, interesting conversations and fun adventures.
My Interests

If you have a take on the AI apocalypse, please share it. ๐ I also enjoy listening to people's life stories. ๐ฅฐ I love to hang out with animals, especially dogs. I love cooking, we can cook Hungarian together! I am vegetarian, but I eat them fishes ๐๐ ๐งโโ๏ธ I generally like any kind of outdoor activity, like hiking, canoeing, camping, and I enjoy sightseeing as well. I really like speaking English and meeting foreign people.
