Hungary - And the setbacks keep coming
Been in Hungary - Budapest 3 nights now. Very nice city but a lot of houses are pretty broken and looks like a post soviet city that never really was completely rebuild...But by the river bank of Donau the view is fantastic, will post some pictures.
Then to the bad news. Yesterday the bad luck started, Hyan's passport was stolen from the hotel room. This is so nostalgic and so not cool, same thing happened to me 2 years ago in Shanghai. The Chinese embassy didn't offer much help but will maybe or hopefully give some paper tomorrow that the finnish embassy then can sign.
Yesterday i went without a ticket to the subway because it was late and i didn't have any coins for the machine where you buy tickets, when i came out of the subway there was of course the ticket checker. She started talking about police business or pay 6000 HUF (25 euros) We went to the ATM but something just seemed suspicious with it so i told her let's GO to the police station, she insisted that some random police would come to that dark alley. Was i gonna wait at some dark alley 23.30 in Budapest? No! So i just ran for it, been avoiding subways now :) Free subway ride but it was pretty freaky in the night.
Never thought i'll be coming to Hungary before and now I'm stuck here now for a while before we know how to fix passport stuff. So awesome that i already fixed AND paid all the hotels in advance which i can't go to now.
Deja vu
