I'M FULLY VACCINATED since mid-March. I can't wait to host you in my apartment and socialize!

"Work to travel"

Funny (they say), friendly (they say), informal, outspoken, but also serious and trustworthy. I'm a journalist since 1995 (I was only 19 years-young then...) with the Szabadság - Hungarian Language Regional Newspaper in Transylvania, Romania - www.szabadsag.ro

My Facebook account is at: http://www.facebook.com/koliver01

I'm a founding member of the Transylvania Rescue Team: http://www.erdelymentocsoport.wordpress.com

I have a poker club (we play for 1 euro, so it's poker for fun, good atmosphere, friendship): http://kapsz.wordpress.com

I'm a member of the Romanian Alpine Club: http://www.carclujuniv.org/ but also a dance club: www.tanc.ro

Plane spotting is familiar to me, I established a club in my city: http://planespottingclj.wordpress.com/

Born and raised in this multicultural, multiethnic (Romanians, Hungarians, Gypsies, Jews, etc.), multilingual city.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meeting people from other countries and cultures is essential. I've been traveling extensively throughout Europe and the United States, so I know what it means to make new friends and learn about their mentality.
