Spotter since 2014
"La Petite Reine" is the bar/cafe with the sunny terrace in Geneva I will always remember as where I met my favourite Australian teacher/jazz musician.

"Café du Rond Point" in the middle of the city of Geneva, is always full, but that has never stopped me from appreciating the atmosphere of the place...
By
"Parc des Bastions" is the location of the very first botanical garden in Geneva and now one of the most versatile spaces in the city. Great for a nap!

"Parc Émile-Dupont" in Geneva is simply the best playground I've ever seen. If you go without a child, take a sports bag & towel and hit the open-air gym!
By
"Le Kraken" in Geneva is not a place you forget; this restaurant/bar looks like it was decorated by the secret lovechild of Jules Verne and H.P. Lovecraft.

The "Musée d'Art et d'Histoire" - musem of art and history - in Geneva has always been there for me with its Egyptian mummies and cafe/bookshop...
By
The "Water Ring" in Geneva's Place de la Madeleine is my favourite fountain in Geneva. The great 'useless trivia' concept behind it makes me return...
By
"Hans-Wilsdorf Bridge" in Geneva is one awesome piece of steel. At 85 meters long, it's, simply put, my favourite bridge in Geneva...

About me
I am what is known in Geneva as a real "genevois". As in raised-in but not born-in. I was born in Budapest in 1986 and (was) moved to Geneva when I was 8 months old, and spent my life in this city, at the center of the world. I have been a bookseller, a financial advisor, a bartender, a security guard, worked in a warehouse, a flight attendant and I am now COO of a small business.
I have been active in the Geneva couchsurfing scene since 2006 and I am the communications director and event coordinator of the Geneva section of Erasmus Student Network. I love photography, horology, literature and cinema. I like to make people feel at home wherever they are and thanks to my having grown up in Geneva, I am in a position to do just that. Whether it is by organizing nice things with ESN or providing a passing by traveler with a couch or tips, I absolutely love meeting people from all over the world and sharing with them.
I am more of a city person, I like to get to know locals and their culture, their hangouts. I also love talking, so I am going to stop now, but will gladly tell you loads more on skype!
Why Geneva?
Ever since I started hosting on Couchsurfing as a grumpy 20 year old, I have fallen in love with my city. I used to go to the same places all the time with the same people, grumbling about how small and boring Geneva was. Then I met travelers, interns, expats and started seeing Geneva through their eyes. Wherever they were, these people always made the most of their location.
I discovered Geneva through their eyes, started going to more and more places, actively looking for things to see and do. And lo and behold, I discovered that Geneva is fun, it has amazing cultural opportunities, loads of festivals, events, amazing public services and is full of fun people!
I signed up to organize events for ESN in 2010, and it has been my job since then to make students and others do fun things in the city. I discover Geneva a bit more every day and I love every minute of it!
