About Me

My name is Krisztina but I prefer to be called by my nickname, Kriszti.
To describe myself - I can say I am totally restless all the time. Always searching for something: feelings, chances, people, adventure, new places to love...
Some things I can't live without are passion, always being interested in something, my studies and life goal (to become a useful member of society, preferably in the field of international trade/logistics), my friends and family, the Lake Balaton, the taste of Hungarian paprika, chocolate, internet (let's admit it), brainstorming, trying out new things in a reportedly brave and adventurous fashion and of course travelling and international experiences.

PHILOSOPHY

You're on a mission, you've got to fulfil it. Be curious. Learn. Be creative and proactive. Be a thinker. Have fun but appreciate silence as well. Meet people from all walks of life and give them your presence as this is the greatest gift you can offer. Respect every human being. Discover the small wonders of the world. Go for the greater good. Do not live only for pleasure. Do not fear suffering. Do not overuse the Mark Twain quote.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Learned to speak Polish all by myself... and recently found my relatives thanks to this.

Teach, Learn, Share

Things that foreigners usually don't know about Hungarian culture - from a viewpoint that usually pretty patriotic and sarcastic at the same time. I can cook Hungarian meals to my host or guest.
Language exchanges are awesome.
I am eager to hear the stories of your life and learn from you, whoever you are.
