About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To meet some awesome people from all over the world

ABOUT ME

I love traveling, camping, backpacking, finding the cheapest places to eat and the wildest places to hike, and dancing the night away. I love learning cool new things such as fire dancing, and yet if you saw me at school... I'm a total geek. I study hard, and party hard. :) I'm married. I sometimes act very random, and I don't mind being pulled pranks on. I sound serious when I'm joking around, so people often think I'm crazy.

I become resistant to such things as hunger and tiredness in front of my laptop, and stay up late most nights. I'm Hungarian, and I'd moved back and forth between the US and Hungary until high school.

PHILOSOPHY

"Work like you don't need the money, love like you've never been hurt, and dance like no one's watching." --- Satchel Paige

There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle at all. The other is as though everything is. --- Albert Einstein

"Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but rather, by the number of moments that take our breath away." --- Hitch

Nothing lasts forever..
so live it up..
drink it down..
laugh it off..
avoid the bullshit..
take chances..
and never have regrets..
because at one point..
everything you did was exactly what you wanted.

"If you love something, set it free. If it comes back, it's yours; if it doesn't, it never was." --- Richard Bach

"Avoid that devilish temptation to nibble at a chocolate bar in the cupboard or fridge by not buying the f****** thing in the first place."

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've been to Burning Man, truly the most amazing place I've ever seen! Everybody is so friendly, anything goes, and you can truly be yourself and nobody judges you. It has such a beach-party / post-apocalyptic city / utopia feel to it... it's impossible to explain. But if you're open-minded, fun and wild, you have to experience it at least once in your lifetime.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm a beginner at poi and would love to learn more or have fun handing down what little knowledge I've acquired so far. I'm also learning Hindi! In return, I could teach you wilderness skills, to speak in Hungarian.
