What happened in 2023
Happy New Year Everyone! Hope that you are all doing fine and have a peaceful and fun time into the new year.
Here is my usual review of the year 2023.
Dogs
Uno is doing fine.
Bad experience
My job of over 13 years finished. In December I was looking for a new place, and while I do like the idea to find new challenges, I'm not good with selling my talents, and the job interviews feel like exams. ~.~"
Confused
Nothing really
Surreal
I was in 6 different countries this year, BENELUX & Laos-Vietnam-Cambodia.
Made my World
This year I could focus on going to the theatre a lot, and while I could travel to places I never was before I think the best was that I could try a yukata on as part of a museum experience. ^.^
Home
We worked a lot in the garden, the Japanese garden is still in work, but gets better every year. Got a smart tv and changed the gas stove. Started to collect things we wanted to dispose, but couldn't finish the organizing this year, so we'll only have these removed by next year.
Health
Nothing major.
Travel
Folk art museum - the museum moved to a new building so we checked it
El Greco exhibition
Petőfi bus - famous Hungarian poet, born 200 years ago, this year there were a lot of programs around him, the moving exhibition was just one.

Fun
