Valley of Arts - a different festival on the Hungarian Mediterrenean

Summer is festival time here in Hungary. There is barely a free weekend to take a beer and chill out in Budapest, since there is always a friend calling you with the tent on her/his back already, ready to convince you to accompany him/her on the train trip to the chosen festival, to reduce your alimentation to beer and hotdog for a few days, to make short dreams in a sleeping bag, to dance in one second to techno and in the next one to heavy rock and to return back with a few things lost, hair in rasta and unknown numbers in your phone...

....................do you feel like escaping?

Light jogging or Marathon sweat - Budapest has it all

I have found this cool application. It actually shows running routes, which I believe could be of great help to some joggers coming to this city.

I have chosen to present the classy Margit Island - in the evenings it is crammed with joggers but it is still one of the best routes. If you get there by sunset you will probably have to stop your legs for a second to admire the beautiful lights on the castle hill or the Parliament.

Bike revolution in Budapest - Critical Mass

Budapest is becoming a biker city. Pest is totally flat and that is where more or less you move around - so more and more people are switching to wire donkeys (hmm, i have told you that Hungarian language is creative - this is another word for bike)  instead of cars and public transport.
