Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I registered a long time ago, and attended a few Couchsurfing meetups in Budapest, but never hosted anyone or stayed at anyone. But now this is about to change! Update: Future me here, I've re-activated my profile in the post-COVID world.
Music, Movies, and Books
Music: Sublime, Harvey Danger, Gorillaz, Green Day, Jamiroquai My favorite genres are dub, hiphop, funk, punkrock, reggae and pop. Movies: Top Secret, Ace Ventura, The Mask, Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, Black Mirror episodes, The Matrix. I like weird comedies, hard sci-fi, and everything in between. Book: Robert B. Cialdini - Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion (This is a book about marketing and sales tricks, which in my opinion everyone should read as self-defence in today's world.)
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Driven a car from New York City to Atlantic City, watched a stand-up comedy and walked around on the ocean shore with a friend.
Teach, Learn, Share
As a host, I can guide you around Budapest and show you all the hundreds of thermal spas that everyone should try here. :) As a guest, anything about software engineering, how a video game works, how the internet works, how blockchain works, how AI works. Or I can help with suggestions on swimming technique.
What I Can Share With Hosts
Positivity, help keep tidy, or the latest stories about Hungary.
My Interests
I've been swimming since I was 12. I like dancing and doing TRX and yoga. Riding a bicycle has always been my main mode of transport. I like playing music. I've been playing in bands with friends for the last 10 years. I make video games as a hobby (and hopefully as a profession soon). I've been doing this since I was 9. My mom is a math teacher, maybe she's one of the reasons that I love mathematics, especially logic. I studied software engineering, and specialized in artificial intelligence. I love following what's happening in the field and discussing intelligence in general. (Close related to this, I'm interested in neuroscience, psychology and computer science.) That's all! I also love tidbits about language, physics and space.
