CURRENT MISSION Exploring the US. Born in Budapest (Hungary), I'm a Social Sciences graduate of the University of Sussex in Brighton in the UK. I've been working in London the past two years running coding courses for young girls, freelancing as a digital consultant, and making coffee at snug local coffee shops. An explorer at heart, I'm not one to ever say no to an adventure, no matter where it takes me - while constantly on the hunt for moments of quiet, I've always loved the buzz of a big city around me. I'm bilingual, having grown up somewhat between England and Hungary. I've also studied French and German for 4-5 years each. I love a good debate, and enjoy listening to people talk about why they enjoy the things they do! Especially when it comes to books, music and films.

Teach, Learn, Share
I can intro you into the world of coding (front-end web development or data science), and teach you how to make a delicious spinach quiche.
