I wanted to write for a while but i could not find the time and the motivation. A lot has changed in since than. I started working at e new job found a (temporary) home. Moved to another place again here I can stay as long as I like. It’s in the center of the Netherlands.My plan to walk to China is still there but for now I have to put it on ice. although a part of me remains…
2019 Week 9 I’m back in the Netherlands and it feels really weird because I am not supposed to be here. Of course there is the funeral of my aunt that I attended last week. As I have mentioned before I have some financial stuff that I have to figure out. For now I have decided that I will stay at least one month in the Netherlands. There are so many people (family, friends, and Nathalie) that I haven’t seen…
13 February 2019 Budapest – The Netherlands It is a weird day . I have until 14:00 hours to spent in the city and then I need to be on the bus. I had breakfas at the hostel and then I went to a few things in the city that I wanted to see but didn’t when I was here. Malicious pleasure was one of them (this car). I also found a manhole cover that I hadn’t seen….
12 February 2019 Kalocsa – Fajsz or not Piroska brought me back after breakfast to Kalocsa, to the place where she had picked me up two days ago. Then I walked into Kalocsa. There was this abandoned guard house. Then I walked onto some sort of memorial square. I went into the direction of the church. Which was unfortunately locked (like most of them in Hungary). I wanted another pilgrimage stamp. So this is the second best. After…
11 February 2019 Foktő & Kalocsa Today was a resting day. Not so much going on. When I woke up, Piroska had already turned on my laundry. We had breakfast together and then we both needed to do some stuff for ourselves. We had lunch together and around 3 Piroska took me with her car to Kalocsa to do some site seeing. She also took me to a good friend of her who is a potter. He showed me around…
10 February 2019 Ordas – Foktő (Kalocsa) Chilping birds and a woodpecker was the sound that I woke up with. Could it be that the coldest part of the winter would be over? At least not for my olive oil, this was as solid as ketchup. To warm up I made tea. Then I packed my tent. I walked into Ordas, a little village where there was not so much to do, no shops at all. …
9 February 2019 Dunapataj – Ordas The orchard was covered in fogg when I woke up. I waited until the chilly air had perished . I made some tea and checked the building on te left, even if there was not a possibility to get in. I had tried yesterday but without succes. On the first floor there was an open window, but this was at least 4 meters off the ground so no way that I could have…
This is another post in a special sequel of things I noticed in foreign countries. The previous ones are about Germany, Austria, and Slovakia. So here is a list of them. Please let me know what you think about it and If I missed something, let me know in the comments. Rainwater from buildings is discarded on the sidewalk or the pipe goes over the sidewalk. People tend to look down not only to their phone but in general….
8 February 2019 Harta – Dunapataj During the night I needed to empty my blather and when I looked up there where so many stars, like 4 times more than visible at home. But as it was freezing I wanted to go back in my sleeping bag as quickly as possible. I started to follow the summer dyke of the Donau again. And there was a feeding place for deer. And I took a new header…
7 Febuary 2019 Solt – Harta My host who’s name I forgot, asked me to leave early (6:00 am) as he was also leaving at that time but for some reason he went an hour early (and I one hour later). I went to a Tankstelle and used the toilet there. I think most people don’t realise how nice a ceramic pot is. For motorcycles they had this helmet support. A bit weird thing but ok. …
