UiT The Arctic University of Norway
Participates in 1 Session

I am a PhD fellow at UiT – The Arctic University of Norway. My doctoral research emphasizes the significance of sustainability and resilience of the tourism companies in Alta, Northern Norway, as well as examines the companies' ability and willingness to adapt and transform to global changes and the corona and post-corona situation. I have BA degrees in Economy, as well as in Health and Wellness Tourism. I have obtained my MA degree in Tourism Studies. My thesis research investigated sense of place and place attachment connected to the arctic archipelago of Svalbard, Spitsbergen. My main research interest is nature-based tourism, arctic tourism, especially winter tourism, and I am engaged in environmental and social sustainability. I am originally from Hungary, but I have been living and working in Norway for 14 years. Currently I am based in Alta, Northern Norway.
