The Budapest trip sounds pretty adventurous :) I have traveled just a little bit when I was still in Russia to the Baltic countries (after they declared independence) and it was too a very memorable experience, but not as drastic as yours.

I agree with you that to travel you don't need to be rich, you just need time. And unfortunately as we get older, while we may be getting a little richer, we are losing the luxury of having time. Before I started working after college, I took three weeks to travel around Europe - and that was the best three weeks I ever spent traveling. Now, I cannot even imagine being able to just take three weeks off and go somewhere. I guess that's the next stage of becoming rich or growing old - not worrying about how much "free" time you have.

That is a good point about time. I can't imagine even to take 2 weeks these days. I hope that once kids get little bit older, we would be able to travel all together. When I was a student I took months to travel. (rich/reach) :) corrected :)

Wow, the Budapest thing sounds kind of scary :)
I traveled to Poland once, we went to participate in some sort of a choral festival. We actually got to participate and also lived in some sort of a camp for a month. We shared this camp with polish orphans... No, it wasn't an orphanage, they came there for camp. Or so we were told ;)
