I'm a 27-year-old Hungarian girl, currenly living in Budapest for about 7 years now. I've moved here for university, where I studied biochemical engineering and engineering management. I used to be a web developer for a small IT company, but I quit my job recently and worked on farm in Iceland for 2 months. I've always been passionate about travelling, and I try to grab all the oppurtunities to do so. I think my travels have shaped my personality significantly, and made me hungry for adventure and eager to experience new cultures. I love listening to the stories of others, and also like to share some of mine.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I would like to get a small taste of what it's like to live in the cities I'm visiting, and I think Couchsurfing is the best way to do that. I'm always excited to meet new people from different backgrounds as me, and learn about their experiences.

Interests

I love hiking and being surrounded by nature, it can always calm me down and refresh me. When I was little, I loved baking cookies, but since I started university, I don't get to practice my baking skills as much. Recently, I've been trying to improve myself at photography and learn more about videography. I started slacklining about a year ago but there is still a lot of room for improvement there.

Music, Movies, and Books

I mostly like to listen to indie and alternative pop/rock music, and if I have to sing something at karaoke, I will chose the Killers' classic hit, Mr. Brightside. I usually watch more TV shows than movies, and I also enjoy talking about them a lot.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In September, I walked across Spain from Pamplona to Finisterre on the Camino de Santiago - it was exhausting and painful but an incredible experience.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you some basic Hungarian expressions, or some very basic folk dance moves :D
My one and only party trick is that I can juggle three balls, I can show you that as well.
I would love to learn some useful tips from you about your city, and share stories about our travels or anything else.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm always open for a good conversation, whether it's about the big questions of life, discussing the differences in our cultures or just sharing some fun drinking stories.
I can also make some Hungarian food for dinner, I have been told my Lángos is pretty good.
