About Me

SORRY I DON'T HOST PEOPLE WITH 0 REFERENCES OR NO PROFILE INFO.

I'm sorry, but please blame the dozen or so people that send requests every day that don't have any references or any info on their profile. References are very easy to get, go to a meetup or get a friend to reference you, its not a catch 22 and shows that you're willing to put in a little effort in exchange for a place to stay.

If you have an active interest in involvement in the CS community, sharing experiences and stories and aren't just looking for a free place to stay then I'm looking forward to your message :)

Now that the unfortunate stuff is over.
-----------

My name is Nick and I'm an Australian that was born in the UK and grew up in Brazil. I work as a photographs and a camera technician in the film industry and love music and being out and about.

Having spent the last few years travelling to various dusty corners of the earth I've finally settled down in Budapest where I plan to spend the next year or so and have just started hosting!

I'm in a small one bedroom flat in District 6 only fifteen minutes walk from Oktagon and five from the nearest metro station (Bajza Utca). Ihave a mezzanine above my living room that has two mattresses, however I don't have much bedding so you'll have a much better time if you have a sleeping bag or something.

I also work 9-18:30 on weekdays so I won't be around during that time, you'll have to come in the evening or on the weekend.

If you're in Budapest to party during the week, I totally get it (I've been there) however it won't really work with my current work hours though I'm more than happy to head out somewhere for a few beers and on the weekend..well its anybody's game.
