About Me

I earned my degree from Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design, Budapest. After the BA studies I went to England, and I worked for a short time with FotoNow, which is a Community Interest Company.

Thereafter I decided to escape, and I moved to China for a couple of months.
I met with somebody, we decided to travel to Hungary from China, it was a crazy three months trip.... :)

I would like to go back to my University now, to do an MA course.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was rowing in the lake in Kashmir, I wanted to make a TimeLaps movie, but my boat was to wobbly, and my camera fell to the lake. I was incredible angry, but the place was to nice to be sad, so I just continued my trip to my directions, where I could see the sunrise with the huge mountains. I couldn't thinking about my camera after, I just enjoyed the amazing view. And I learned, I can't documented all of my life....
