Welcome fellow hoopy froods!

About me... well, born and raised in Budapest, currently living in Madrid. I love traveling, but I guess everyone does here! :)
I enjoy a good sense of humor, listening to music, making music, dancing to music like nobody’s watching. I’m always up for a night out, a drink (or two), and deep conversations about life, the universe, and everything.

I'm more the logical type - I love math, logical puzzles, and gaming. At the same time, I’m an optimist, full of energy, and curious about almost everything. Meeting new people, exploring different cultures, and understanding unique perspectives is what really changes us!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Most people who does couchsurfing think similarly, and I love this way!
Like the spirit of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.

I frequently travel with my husband, so I have an album about him too.
I also plan to host once I finally able to get my own flat.

Have a good trip for everyone!

Music, Movies, and Books

Hip-hop, rap, alternative rock (especially some Hungarian ones), rock, D'n'B, and nowadays jazz, blues, and soul are my favorites.
My love is Amy Winehouse. 😊

I don't really have favorite movies—it depends on my mood. For me, one of the most important things is the feeling and the style.
I like when a movie has something to say or is simply thought-provoking.
For example: Poor Things, Into the Wild, The Prestige, Donnie Darko.
I love good artistic films, like Le Fabuleux Destin d'Amélie Poulain or Only Lovers Left Alive.
I like some musicals too, like Moulin Rouge and Chicago (very, very much).
I love Tarantino movies! :) Especially Pulp Fiction, Sin City, and The Hateful Eight. His world is amazing.
Sometimes I prefer a simple comedy, like Grandma's Boy, but I really hate comedies without humor—I don't know why, but very much. :D
I like lots of series, like Family Guy, South Park, and Friends, and some anime, like Naruto. My favorite anime is Code Geass.

All of a sudden, that's all.

My favorite book is definitely The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams. I really like his attitude and humor.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went on a motorcycle tour with my husband from Budapest to Madrid mostly on mountain roads, and it was absolutely amazing!
