Hey, I’m Ákos

I’m a Hungarian traveller, and the more I travel, the more I love it.

When I was a teenager, I was lucky enough to travel to several European countries as a member of a folk dance group. My experiences in Estonia, Italy and Greece really got me into exploring the world. Then, after college, I got a job with a multinational company, which gave me more chances to travel each year. I’m not a full-time traveller, but I feel so lucky to have experienced all the incredible things the world has to offer.

Our first big trip of 2017 took us to Texas to visit a dear friend. We spent almost three weeks exploring Austin, Houston and Dallas, and it really opened our eyes to how diverse and unique different places are. As well as annual vacations and short city breaks, I’ve got the privilege of experiencing different cultures through my work. I like to plan my own trips on a tight budget, and so far I’ve visited nearly 18 European countries, with many more on my bucket list. My wife and I have set ourselves the challenge of visiting all European capitals, and we’ve got a long way to go.

I’ll be sharing my travel experiences and insights here. Oh, and I’m the one behind all the images on this site – not stock images, unless it says otherwise.
