About Me

I am a down to earth guy with a hunger to learn from everything and everyone, as well as share what might be of interest that I know. I like a relaxing time with good conversation as well as partying from time to time. I am honest, respectful and open minded. My grandparents from my fathers side were from Hungary and Poland, hence the last name and non-blond hair.

I started my travels around Central- and South America in October 2015 in Cancun, Mexico and have been working my way down south since. I arrived with a basic knowledge of Spanish from living in Barcelona, Spain during a year and later did 3 weeks of Spanish studies in San Pedro, Guatemala at Orbita Spanish School.

I live by the rules, know a little about everything and a lot about something.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I over came my extreme claustrofobia (fear of tight spaces) in a little over a year on my own at the age of 14. I went from not being able to close the door in the room I was in to crawl in underground tunnels not big enough for an adult.
Bungee jump in Thailand
I love freestyle skiing!
