This is the travel diary of a simple Hungarian girl who went back home for the first time.

That same Dental office from before, the frames on the wall now being behind me. The room was split down the middle, as you can see on the right side of the picture. One side was vintage, warm, welcoming, the other side was clean, modern, sharp, to show that past that point it was like every other dentists office. Even the front desk was split, the chairs a different design, everything… it was very cool.

So, obviously, I haven’t posted in forever.
Months, actually.
And I’m aware.
I’m sorry, it was just… a little hard to think about the fact that this blog will, eventually, have an end to it since I’m no longer in Hungary and can’t simply take more pictures… Until, of course, I’m able to go back.
Which I won’t for a while.
But until then, I do have lots of pictures I’ve yet to post and I’m going to start back up on that immidiately! So, thank you to everyone who’s still following me. :]

The trip home wasn’t nearly as insane as the trip there was. It felt shorter, even though it was, in fact, longer. I think… right?
Well, anyway, it was nice. I had a very pleasant two plane rides, the first of which was only an hour and twenty minutes long. It was quiet, but it was nice.
This picture here is just after taking off in the first place, so this really was my last view of Budapest and the Danube river.

My flight back home to Florida is in 9 hours.
I have missed a couple things from home.
Like my mother, my bed, the warm weather, the beach.
But all in all, I haven’t really been actively missing anything.
I love it here in Budapest, I really do, and I would gladly come back soon.
I doubt I’ll have the money too, at least not very soon,
but I’d love to.
But, of course, no worries.
This blog will still be regularly updated for a good while.
I didn’t have much free time while I was here,
I really couldn’t post much at all,
and so I have tons and tons of beautiful pictures to put up,
as well as some stories I’ll surely remember along the way.
So, thank you to all of my lovely followers and I hope you continue to enjoy this blog as it will very much go on! :]
Now, I’m off to go pack and then sleep.
Jo estét kivanok mindenkinek! (Good night everyone!)

Düki - Tedd Fel a Kezed
At the beginning of the song, he tells you to turn up the volume, and every time this video came on viva (a hungarian music video channel), I did. Gotta say, I love this song.

*We go to eat Chinese food.*
Nagyi: How much are the coconut rolls?
Chinese girl: 110 forint each.
Nagyi: Ok, uhh, well give us a few of them.
*Chinese girl begins wrapping up one, clearly having misheard.*
Nagyi: No no, a few o-
*Nagyi then turns to me.*
Nagyi: Translate! Tell her in English!
Me: Why on earth would she speak English?
Nagyi: She’s Chinese, there are a lot of Chinese people in America!
Me: But this is Hungary…
Nagyi: Just tell her in English already!
*I turn to the girl.*
Me: Do you speak English?
*She shakes her head, smiles and giggles.*
Me: See Nagyi? She has absolutely no reason to know how to speak English.
Nagyi: Oh, god damn it…
Me: We’ll take six of them.
Chinese girl: Ok! That’ll be 660 forint please.
Me: See Nagyi? She speaks Hungarian amazingly.
Nagyi: You’re insane.
…
Me: What did I do?
