About me
After a detour of about four years, Business Administration at the Free University, I ended up studying Film and Philosophy at the University of Amsterdam, which is located in the middle of the centre.

The liveliness of the city is what attracted me towards Amsterdam in the first place, but after a few years of travelling back and forth between Amsterdam and my place of birth, I needed to be reminded of this again. This happened during a five month stay in Budapest.

When I was back in the Netherlands I was so absorbed by the city life that I felt the need to spend as much time in Amsterdam as possible.

Since two years I have been living in the city centre and I am still exploring the depths of everything Amsterdam has to offer. I appreciate every opportunity to look at my city afresh. I enjoy being guided by others, or on the contrary, showing others around.

Amsterdam
The centre of Amsterdam has the physical appeal of a small town, with hardly any high buildings and very few big roads, yet the atmosphere is cosmopolitan. It is lively, the people are savvy, and there are plenty of layers to explore beneath the surface.

I will love this city as long as there are new things for me to uncover, and as Amsterdam is constantly evolving, I can enjoy the city for a long time to come.
