(no subject)
Tomorrow is my last day in Budapest and I am spending it alone, venturing off to post a whole bag of stuff to Új Zéland which mainly consists of tights, maps of Budapest, and a few other things that I don't need like waterproof trousers that have been replaced in my suitcase with $600 NZD worth of DVDs made by the Pikler Institute that are for my study.
We went for an early dinner to the Market Hall tonight and bought even more Christmas decorations as presents (another thing filling my bag).
And I had some flight drama when I realised that booking my flights through two travel angents was not too smart and I would miss my flight from Munich to Hong Kong as I would arrive in Munich just an hour between flights, in different terminals, needing to get my luggage and check it on to the next flight myself. On this trip I have learned a dislike for airports, hatred for long flights, and much more information about little mistakes that I can make when organising my own flights.
But on this trip to Budapest I learned much more about my future, how much I love Budapest, how much cheaper (and easier to find) retro clothing is, how amazing the cakes are here, how fast people drive in Budapest, and how much a simple two words in Hungarian can help, and how much I miss strong, hot coffee.
P.S. Red I have seen two ads for Malta on tv this week. I have thought of you each time.
On Thursday I venture off to Berlin, then on Friday to Switzerland, then back to Berlin, and on to London.
