About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I want to travel the world!

ABOUT ME

I love to travel and meet different cultures. At the moment I work for a Hungarian travel agency to organise outgoing package tours for hungarians, but during my free time I prefer the backacking style.
I been to a 1,5 months backapcking trip two years ago in Thailand, Laos and Vietnam. It was an amazing experience with lots of memories for a lifetime. The more I travel, the even more I want to.
I have also guided a tour in the national parks of the US which were beautiful.
I worked as an au pair in the United Kingdom two times and also worked in the US in a summer camp. It was a really great experience to live in a foreign country, and meet with people from different cultures. I like to be in the nature, walk in the forest or in the seaside. I'm also interested in geography
and gastronomy.

PHILOSOPHY

"The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page."
