ABOUT ME

Before sending a request please read ALL my profile. Thank you :).

I joint Cs back in 2013, since then the site - and so the community - changed a lot. In my opinion Cs is first of all to meet people, to stay for free is a lateral advantage. In general I consider myself open-minded and open to know new things, new points of view. I like to get to know new people, I can host or just hang out in the city, make a tour or have a drink. I have experience in tours, I have been doing it for over 3 years, I'm qualified tourist guide.I'm welcoming, sometimes I have problems with time but no worries eheh. So... that's all at the moment :D.

P.s. I will know if you didn't read my profile if you write about your trip to "Eastern Europe" referring to Budapest. Budapest as we know it is in Central-Europe ;).
Pls if you come be aware that I don't live in any central touristic area.
PHILOSOPHY

Enjoy your life, don't hurt others

Couchsurfing is not good because of a free place but for know other cultures, have valuable time and make new friendship!
Try to be kind even if sometimes it is very difficult, and if you fail next time you will make it ;).

If you have any problem with someone/something, talk about it directly to the person. Smiling doesn't resolve anything if it is not honest. Hypocrisy is repulsive.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Usually I can host surfer(s). Several times I just meet travelers who write me and we pass some time together, walking around or grabing a wine/kriek whatever :D.

I prefer local places, why should you go to places where there are just tourists if you are in Budapest ;)?

When I host I try to spend time with my guests as I don't think Cs is about a place to sleep. It is an experience, opportunity to meet people.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have had lots of nice experiences on Cs, mostly hosting, I had surfed only once, I hope that it's soon my turn to travel and surf ;).

And I teach Hungarian too, I tought Hungarian to Italians and I think I can teach it to others too :).
