    Day 1 in Budapest, Hungary

    May 5, 2018 in Hungary ⋅ ⛅ 26 °C

    I landed in Budapest not knowing what to expect. It took me a few hours to know that I would love this city. I find the people to be very friendly and the food is amazing. I tried Hungarian Goulash soup which tadtes better than the Czech version. Unfortunately I arrived in the late afternoon so I could not visit the Jewish memorial centre :(. Oh well...maybe another day.Read more

    Day 2 in Budapest

    May 6, 2018 in Hungary ⋅ ⛅ 23 °C

    Guess what? I woke up at 5am today just to get to Széchenyi thermal baths. I was a little bit scared to use the metro that early in the morning. But it's summer so it is light and there were lots of people out. Today also included a visit to Fisherman's Bastion which was crowded with TOO MANY tour groups. People were literally fighting for spaces to take photos. Thank god for my tripod it really helps when you are a solo traveller. I met a nice Hungarian man who actually offered to take a few photos for me. He then gave me a little tour of the area and told me about Hungary's history. They were ruled by Turkey for 150 years, and then Russia took over their country for 50 years after world war 2.Read more

    Day 3 in Budapest

    May 7, 2018 in Hungary ⋅ ⛅ 22 °C

    Today was my last day in Budapest. I really don't want to leave this country it's amazing. I started my day by visiting the great market hall where I tried Langos. It is like fried dough topped with cheese and sour cream. It gets very busy after 10am. I got there at 9.40am and it was peaceful. But the minute the clock hit 10am there were masses and crowds of tourists. I literally bought some souvenirs and then got the hell out of there. I never really had a plan today and just went with the flow. It was a shorter day because I had to pick up my suitcase at 2.30pm and head for the airport.Read more
