about me

I am a Hungarian Ubuntu LoCo activist. I was born in 1982. I live in Budapest, and I work as a copywriter for an advertising agency. I am an open source enthusiast, and Ubuntu user. As you can see, I am an active Ubuntu advocate: I write all kind of stuff including news, articles, documentation, press releases, etc. I am also active in organising release parties and other kind of Ubuntu (and open source) related events. I spend a high percentage (some say, too high) of my free time on Ubuntu and the LoCo - and I enjoy it very much...
