About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Preparing for my second marathon, which I'll run in Hamburg in April.

ABOUT ME

I live in Budapest and work as an international marketing manager for Budapest Marathon Organisation. Trying to get more and more foreign runners to Budapest! :)Budapest is my hometown, where I've lived most of my life, but I'd also lived in the USA when I was a teenager, and in London for more than a year in 2010-2011. I have masters in Economics, but interested and studied also photography and filmmaking. I like to write and I'd written articles to music magazines.

PHILOSOPHY

Those who say it cannot be done sholdn't interrupt the people doing it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Only positive. When I'm travelling it helps to get an insight and avoid to be painfully touristic. When I'm at home it brings the world to me! Free counters

Interests

Sports (rowing, volleyball, icehockey, running -half-marathon, swimming)
Writings (I wrote a diary of my Indian trip for example, with photos illustrated. If anybody is interested to read it, I can send it to them, by email. I also writing some articles to a music magazin in Hungary, about concerts)
Lately I'm getting more and more into film making. I'm attanding a film schoool, where we are studying how to edig how to direct, etc. a movie.
