About Me

Veggie+Travel lover 🥰

I need to travel like the air to breathe 🤗
Good selling is a creative act between at least two people, in witch added value is created at the end for both side.

Hey! I'm Becks. An Entrepreneur (https://touchbud.com 👈), world traveller 🚀 and lifelong learner ⭐.

- I am a creative and flexible person, always ready to learn new skills and competencies.

- Wow, that sounds good, but please, it reminds me of a Z category movie trailer from Hollywood…

Don’t judge me, as I’ve just started. Let me continue this short story and I’ll show you all the details. :)
I decided to leave my hometown to look for greater challenges abroad. Thus, I went to Germany and worked for Bosch as a project manager during their website relaunch period.

I always dreamed of attaining my master’s degree, so after many years in Germany, I moved to Austria.
I wanted to see the entire picture, not just a piece of the puzzle. My way was always a bit different...

I spent my "academic gap year" at Carl H. Lindner College of Business (Cincinnati, OH) and spent a summer in Asia on a project-based internship at National Cheng Kung University (Tainan, Taiwan). I also traveled very much, which was easy in and from Europe. It was a great opportunity to get to know other people and cultures.

Now I'm a Founder and CEO of my Start-up company. I think this is my greatest achievement now. :D
Tomorrow is today, so all we 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! ✌️
