Essay Questions

What is your most memorable childhood experience?Meeting different people of different cultures all over the world. Kids are different everywhere. In Hungary, I joined kids in Budapest playing traditional game (Sigafutam), racing with snail-shaped toys, etc. In Sweden, I've tasted the best homemade lingonberry jam at a Midsummer festival in Stockholm, where locals taught me a folk dance. In Finland, I experienced a sauna with a Finnish family near Helsinki hearing about their love for nature. In Cyprus, I shared fresh halloumi with a girl my age at a village market, connecting through smiles. These moments taught me to embrace cultural differences with curiosity, shaping my openness to diversity as I grew up.
What immediate family member do you closely identify with and why?I identify most with my godfather. He is very smart, bold and fearless. My godfather is one of a kind (besides me :) ). He's a brilliant businessman, very inspiring, open to new ideas, educated, and an intelligent person who can read the minds of people (not in a mystical way).
What character traits do you admire in an individual?I admire intelligence and bravery. These character traits might change the world. I love changes and these are necessary components for it.
What is the funniest thing ever to happen to you?Funniest within a time - I was hunting ghosts and monsters when I was a kid. We were in the woods, escaped from the house in a summer camp and I was with a group of older kids. There were 7 of us and we wanted to test out the theory that ghosts and evil spirits were living in the woods. It was a small investigation with flashlights and a skeptical mood that ended with adrenaline and complete fear (in a good way). We were running from this forest like crazy because we saw a shadow - a silouette of some trees and animals (probably deer).
If time and money were not an issue, where would you travel and why?The United States. It was my dream (one of them) to move here and I accomplished it. I wanted to move to the US because it's a country full of opportunities. I would love to travel to China, Japan, and South Korea since they are completely different worlds.
When and if you ever have children, what would you like to pass on to them?I would pass on knowledge, money, and businesses. I would like to teach potential offspring how to treat themselves and others, how to solve issues in life, and my personal beliefs and philosophies. I would like to pass down my generational wealth whether it be through businesses or retail.
