Introduction
I started my higher education in 2009, at the Tourism and Hospitality BSc Program of Pannon University in Veszprém, where I graduated as an economist in 2013. After that, I continued my studies with a Master's degree in Tourism Management at the Faculty of Commerce, Hospitality and Tourism (which is now Faculty of international Business) of Budapest University of Economics and Business, where I graduated in 2015. Between 2016 and 2020, I was a PhD student at the Doctoral School of Business and Management at Corvinus University of Budapest, where I obtained my PhD degree in 2023. Currently, as an assistant research fellow, I support the work of the Tourism and Hospitality Department of BUEB-FIB.
