Overview
About Me
Heiii!
I'm Balazs from Győr — a world traveler, airport hunter, investor, Couchsurfing enthusiast, and a naturally curious soul.
If you'd like to get to know me, feel free to send a message that's meant to spark a deeper conversation. :)
FYI:
I'm so excited to be crossing the globe in one big adventure. I’d love to meet you in person!
Veggie & travel lover 🥰
I need to travel like I need air to breathe. 🤗
Good selling is a creative exchange between at least two people, where added value is created for both sides in the end.
Hey! I’m Becks—Entrepreneur (https://touchbud.com 👈), world traveller 🚀, and lifelong learner ⭐
I’m a creative and flexible person, always eager to learn new skills and broaden my horizons.
That might sound like a line from a cheesy Hollywood Z-movie trailer—but hey, don’t judge me just yet! I’m just getting started.
Let me tell you the full story...
I left my hometown in search of greater challenges and ended up in Germany, where I worked at Bosch as a project manager during their website relaunch.
Pursuing a long-time dream, I moved to Austria to earn my master’s degree. I’ve always wanted to see the full picture, not just a piece of the puzzle—and my path has always been a little different.
I spent my academic gap year at the Carl H. Lindner College of Business in Cincinnati, OH, and did a project-based summer internship at National Cheng Kung University in Tainan, Taiwan. I also traveled extensively—especially from Europe, which made it easy to explore new cultures and connect with amazing people.
Now, I’m the Founder & CEO of my own startup. That’s probably my proudest achievement so far. :D
Because tomorrow is today, and all we really have is now.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I will create meaningful relationships, see the sunset from different angles, and learn new languages and words like "vijfenvijftig" or "godt nytår".

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
More than 3000km driven in Vietnam with a motorbike. ;)
SZiGET - Music Festival (project leader)
I have been working as a marketing leader in an event organization office specialized in high range online and offline marketing for for 4 years, where we did some amazing things. If you've ever been to a poorly organized music festival, you know how important it is that we are managed almost everything correctly! Everybody was so excited... I am really proud of it! I'm really proud of SZiGET :)
STEP.one - Start-up Contest (winning third place... accidentally...)
I never thought that one day I'll stand there. Giving "accidentally" a presentation in a foreign language. I wasn't prepared at all... I've signed up for the workshop and not for the competition. I had 30 minutes to prepare and put the slides together. :) Thank you!
I knew I will do it and I did it... I just did it! ✌️
