17 January 2019 Pilisszentlélek – Piliscsaba The daughter who is studying Korean culture came to bring me breakfast and said that if there was something I could knock at the door. I ate my breakfast and then I was ready to go, so I turned off the electricity and gas and wanted to bring back the tray from breakfast but no one opened. It was Awkward, we hadn’t discussed a price or if I could stay for free so I…
16 January 2019 Esztergom – Pilisszentlélek From now I can add a map with the route I took. I am totally happy that this works now. I have to give Pijke, a friend of mine, credit for it. Today is also the day that I started to honour my favicon, but more about that later. For people who don’t know what a favicon is. It is the little icon that you see on top of my site. Here you see…
15 January 2019 Esztergom I took a restday. I stayed a while at Gabriella’s place. And wrote some references for people. This is Gabriella and her partner. He worked at an insurance company and he showed me what he does. I found it fascinating how this works and what kind of cases he has. I stayed so long that Gabriella came back for lunch from her work and then I left to a Tai masage. They did not have time…
14 January 2019 Štúrovo – Esztergom This was an easy day. It was just 4 km. After breakfast David drove me around Štúrovo and showed me almost the whole town. View on Esztergom. Here we see an interinsting water construction. You can close the wall and make it a bit higer so the town won’t be flooded. Then it was time to cross the border bridge. This is my bordercrossing song selected by Nathalie. It is somehow fitting because…
13 January 2019 Moča – Štúrovo My blister was still not gone it had become one big one instead of two smaller ones, luckily the one on my other foot was gone. Emi offered to give me a ride and she drove me to Mužla to the sultans trail. There I said goodbye. This is Emi. The road led over this unpaved road with friendly horses. But then the route led straight into the farmland, so the only…
12 January 2019 Komarno – Moča This is Eugen and his wife where I stayed this night. During breakfast we had an conversation and he asked where I would sleep tonight. I was not able to find a place. He texted an old colleague of him and gave her my contact details. when I was putting on my shoes is saw that the blister had filled itself overnight. I had treated it yesterday but now I had to do…
11 January 2019 Velký Lél – Komarno This is the view that I woke up with: When I packed my stuff and put on my shoes, I had a bit of a problem because yesterday I had been walking through the snow and they had become all wet. During the night the moisture had frozen. so I asked a guy at the camping where the barn belonged to and if I could warm up inside. But the guy did…
10 January 2019 Čičov – Velký Lél I woke up early in the morning with cold feed. I took out my foot warmers and attached them to my socks and after a while my feet warmed up and I fell asleep again and slept pretty long. The worst thing is getting out of you sleeping bag and packing your tent and bag, because during this time you cool down and you’re only getting warm again when you are walking. This…
9 January 2019 Ňárad – Čičov I left the warmth of the pension, followed the road back to the Donau and resumed my way on the dyk. The weather was much better than yesterday evening. Some small clouds and the sun was shining. I took a small breakfast and just seat down on the road on my sit mat so I wouldn’t have a wet but afterwards. But unfortunately my trousers ended up being wet anyway because I sat…
8 January 2019 Bratislava – Ňárad My Breakfast of this morning: When I was packing my bag I had trouble to get everything in, because my mother sent me so much food it just physically did not fit. Because I went to Wien to collect my mail, I could not do the first trip from Bratislava along the Donau (to my regret). So I took the buss to the first next town (Čunovo) in my planning. or I thought so….
