Torstai 🇫🇮 Fimmtudagur 🇮🇸

We hit the road today with Ági. As the ordered goods arrived and they tried to deliver to us the other day when we were not home, we had to pick up the pack at the post office. We made a huge round around the block, and besides picking up the DVD, we bought a couple of things for tomorrow. On the way back home, we noticed how much our physical condition deteriorated during the long hiatus due to the recent renovations on our house. Even though we gained other types of stamina, the lack of hiking took its toll. Anyway, the winter season will provide us with plenty of possibilities to go for long walks, so there is no need to worry or moan about it.

I spent the afternoon cleaning the little bathroom, the living room, and my office. One of my former CELTA peers arrived this evening in Hungary and will visit us tomorrow. So, it was high time I cleaned the house. But it took me almost three hours of labour to complete the task. However, now everything looks ship-shape-and-shiny. However, the weather will be shite. They predict torrential rain with gale-force wind, so the first part of the sightseeing will not be the most pleasant activity. We'll come to Szentendre in the afternoon, and I hope the skies will clear by then.

Keskiviikko 🇫🇮 Miðvikudagur 🇮🇸

My new bridge is in my mouth. It took the doc almost an hour to meticulously and precisely fit it in and cement it. I wasn't allowed to eat for three hours, and I still can't chew anything on the left side of my jaw. However, my dental features are ship-shape-and-shiny. Only one tooth is left: they need to replace the old filling. Once it's done, I'll have a Hollywood-type smile. Before the dental care, I went through the lesson plan I'd prepared the other day for today. When I returned home from the dentist, I took Abby for her afternoon walk and drove to Budapest to teach. Before arriving at where I taught, I popped into a store to buy some "kifli" for later and four "Túró Rudi" to appease my rumbling stomach. After teaching, I hurried back home, grabbed two "kifli", some butter and plum jam, and ate like a king. It was already pitch dark when we returned from our evening walk with Abby. I hate the early dusks. However, summer tries

Goodbye 2023 - Hello 2024

2023 has been an interesting year for many reasons. There were ups and downs, good and bad times, laughter and tears, but most importantly, us being together. During the last few years, I've noticed that we can overcome any obstacles together, which is a fantastic and soothing thought. Come 2024, for better or worse, together we will solve everything. May the world be a better place in 2024.

GRAZ - day 1 - 🇦🇹

We are in Graz, as Ági’s linguist conference starts tomorrow. We woke up early in the morning. I had to de-ice the cars, which took an hour. Once I finished the job, Ági took Abby to the dog sitter, and I packed my things for the weekend. Abby didn’t want to stay at the dog-sitter - poor thing - but Ági’s callousness conquered her temper tantrum. Travelling to Austria is always a pleasure. The roads were clean, the traffic was not heavy, and taking the scenic route was a brilliant decision. We could have opted for the Balaton route, but the northern direction seemed a better choice. We stopped at an unknown little village, where the shopping mall was phenomenal. We grabbed a coffee and stretched our legs because sitting in a car for hours is not the best thing in the world. Anyway, we arrived at the hotel - which looks great - safe and sound. The room is small but clean, however, the area is a bit dodgy. It’s close to the main train station, which attracts many people, so it is a busy
