Yesterday, I came back from my week-long vacation in Budapest. It was a great trip and even more so because I was able to show one of my good friends from Utrecht how amazing the city is. We did quite a bit of sight seeing, walking around, and going out, including with some good friends I have over in Budapest. It was an all around much needed and well-deserved break.
After one solid week gone, I came back to Utrecht with new friends and a ton of great new stories. Some of them are quite random, others would make you laugh and others perhaps shake your head. Writing about them simply would not do them justice as you really need to have been there to understand! #Yolo, right though? Some of these stories however include meeting some fellow UC’ers (who were also in my Dutch class) at the hostel during my last night in Budapest, learning how insane (in a good way!) Brazilians are and finding out that Mark Zuckerberg was also in Budapest and had visited some bars/restaurants that I had been to only nights before. It’s a crazy small world!
Below are also pictures from one particular night I decided to forgo going out and partying and instead headed to the Danube and took some pictures of the area along the river bank and Szechenyi Bridge. Simply being anywhere near the riverbanks at night (especially when its warm) lends itself to an absolutely set of views. I only hope that this was not the night that Zuckerberg decided to make his appearance, which I’m starting to think it was. Haha.
