Faculty of Commerce, Hospitality and Tourism

My education includes an MSc in Geography and Earth Sciences (ELTE), MA in History (Károli University of the Reformed Church) MA in Ethics, Anthropology and Social Sciences (University of Veszprém). I wrote my doctoral thesis at the Department of Regional Sciences at ELTE Faculty of Sciences in 2009, and one year later I obtained my PhD degree. I wrote my dissertation about modernisation in Ladakh, a fascinating region of the Kashmir Himalayas. My current research has been focused on social consequences of modernisation in developing countries (Nepal, Bhutan and India)
I have been working in public education for more than twenty years as a high school teacher. Apart from that I have taught some courses at ELTE Faculty of Sciences, Eötvös József College, College of Foreign Trade, College of Communications (now Metropolitan University). In February 2017 I became a part-time instructor at BGE KVIK.

In my free time I do a lot of test- marking of course, but I like cycling, swimming and I’m into guerrilla beer brewing. Since 2009 I have been a high-altitude trekking guide for iKaland.hu that specialises in organising treks, and mountain-climbing expeditions. I have taken climbers to four-, five- and six-thousanders in the Himalayas (Bhutan, Nepal and Ladakh) and in the Middle-East (Ararat, Damavand) and in the Caucasus (Bazardüzü).
