Hello! Tell us a bit about yourself

Hey, I’m Lesi. I live and work in Hungary, my native country. For now, I’m working as a delivery person in my neighbourhood.

As well as that, I have a couple of side jobs as a ski trainer, guide, and translator. Most of these are seasonal jobs.

Also, I do some basic photo and video editing, but mainly for fun, not money.

When I was a kid, I travelled a lot. I’ve been to all European countries west of Hungary (except Portugal and Ireland).

I’ve got a lot of mileage, so building up a proper desk setup for my home office was a great change of pace.

I built my workspace with multitasking and productivity in mind.

I find it quite helpful to have multiple monitors with different screen ratios and sizes to suit my needs.

I have four of them, but I don’t really use the TV screen that much. Even with three screens (especially when two are ultrawide), it’s kind of overkill.

Lesi uses the middle monitor for work, the top monitor for podcasts, YouTube videos, movies & TV shows, and the left monitor is reserved for Discord and Facebook

Having different monitors with different aspect ratios does make your life easier.

Imagine you’d like to watch a movie without black bars. Either of my ultrawide screens will do in this scenario.

And vice versa — you can use the normal MSI monitor if you’re watching 16:9 content — for example, TV series or YouTube videos.

It’s super handy.

Lesi has four screens, but he admits that even three are more than enough for effective multitasking

The left monitor in my setup is an MSI Optix G273QF: 1440p 165hz IPS Panel.

The middle ultrawide is a Xiaomi Ultrawide: 1440p 144hz VA Panel.

The upper monitor is an LG 34UC79G: 1080p 144hz IPS Panel.

The TV is a basic 4K Sony TV.
