Children age
Born on 1 July 1975 in Budapest, Hungary, into a Deaf family. My father was an active sportsman, he became Deaflympic champion in 1977 and 1981 with the Hungarian deaf waterpolo team. But I became addicted to snow instead of water: I have been skiing since I was 4 years old, and from the age of 8 I became a certified athlete in a country where the highest mountain is only 1014 m high.
