CURRENT MISSION

To explore and share the explored!

ABOUT ME

I like diversity therefore I also look for discovering something all the time. There are plenty of things to be learned: listening to others and exploring places are a way I like to do it. In all that there is always something fascinating to be learned from people living in remote, isolated places.
I like to take things easy and seriously enough only when is necessary.
The outdoor activities I like are strongly linked to photography, nature, mountain climbing and cycling. And sharing those experiences with others. I like maps and at some extent creating maps.
Otherwise I like to experiment with cooking, I know a couple of things about wines. I am discovering oriental food, I like seafood. And it feels good to have a licorice in the pocket.
Short films, musicals, exhibitions, board games... all welcome.

PHILOSOPHY

* "If there is a will, there is a way"
* "What makes the desert beautiful, is that somewhere it hides a well."

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Volunteering and living on a remote Icelandic farm for two weeks

Experiencing 4 seasons in one day on the top of a mountain (see http://bit.ly/dWVvEs)

Glacier walk in Norway (see http://bit.ly/fjizZq)

Travelling through Northern Scandinavia for 16 days in continuous daylight

On the down side:
A "challenging" 40 hours, continuous bus trip across Europe because of flight cancellations due to volcanic eruption in Iceland.

教，学，和分享

I'd rather say in this order: learn-share-teach.

I would like to learn playing a musical instrument properly. A blues harp for instance.

I can share some knowledge I have, from the top of my head: making a good mulled wine, cooking a Transylvanian/Hungarian chicken-paprikás, principles of photography and enhancing your photos in a digital darkroom, building your own map for your trekking GPS - for the more technically minded and outdoor liking people...
