Hello Petra, I have seen thousands of vlog but this one is so simple and feels reality/original. no showoff its pure..........
Thank you so much for this very kind comment! :)
I'm really happy that you find my videos real, that is actually my main goal with these videos to see this side of the city as well, the simple people in this beuatiful city, Budapest and in Hungary. :)
@@petrasperspective agreed :)
New subscriber here. I am a first generation Canadian living in Canada. My parents left Hungary in ‘56. I am hoping to come next year for a visit and I want to learn as much as possible before I come. Including the language. Köszönöm szépen, nagyon szeretek ilyesmi videót nézni.
Welcome here! :) I'm happy that you joined! That's so interesting to read that you are a first generation Canadian, I know a lot of Hungarian people left the country during the revolution.
That's also really exciting that you plan to visit Hungary, I really hope that you will like it here! Until that I will show you a lot of things about Hungary (not only about Budapest), so I really hope that you will find some inspiration on what to visit in this country. If you need any help or if you are interested in a specific topic, let me know and I will talk about it in a video! :)
Legyen szép napod! :)
I would walk to work too because Budapest is my favorite city. I only lived in Hungary, in Esztergom, for maybe 5-6 months but I enjoyed it very much. That work day seems long and I'm surprised! We don't work that much in the US, generally, but I haven't compared any recent labor statistics. Still, I would walk, sometimes take the bus, tram, or subway, and I would try to eat out as much as possible because there is so much good for everywhere. If I see some elderly woman selling Langos out of a window along the sidewalk then you can bet that I will stop there often. LOL!
I also fell in love with walking in Budapest, that's one of my favourite activity and the options are endless! What I also love is to walk along one of the bridges, I never get bored of it. :) The Danube is so beautiful.
Lángos and (for me) Kürtöskalács is a must! :) I love it that these little buffets are not only for tourists, even the Hungarians stop by from time to time, that's how you know they are good! :)
When we make a program in the city, we always but one of them, I really like them as well. :)
Very interesting video you made. I may have plans myself for a move to Budapest.
Thank you so much and that's really nice to read! :) I definitely recommend you to see Budapest for yourself at least for a shorter time, this city has so much to offer!
@@petrasperspectiveI'm going to Budapest in October. Do you have any good tips on nice places to visit there?
It really depends on how long you stay here. :)
For a shorter (few days) stay I would definitely check out:
• the Parliament and it's surrounding: Kossuth Lajos tér (Kossuth Lajos Square), the Shoes on the Danube Bank, Szabadság tér (Liberty Square), until the St. Stephen's Basilica.
• the Buda Castle and the whole Castle Quarter
• walking through the Lánchíd (Chain Bridge)
• Hősök tere (Heroes Square)
• Margit-sziget (Margaret Island)
I would also use the tram lines to see more of the city, because honestly, every building in the center has its own story and the architecture is just wonderful. :)
For a longer stay I would also check out:
• Normafa (beautiful place to see the city from above)
• the Gellért-hill gives you also an amazing view (but the top is now closed due to construction, but it's still worth a hike)
• the Városliget (City Park) - it has so many beautiful buildings: Vajdahunyad castle, the House of Music etc.) and full of people (but in a good way, everyone is chilling with their dogs etc,it's so relaxing), it's truly a wonderful place to have a picnic for example
• Kopaszi-gát is also one of my favourite places in Budapest
• the Andrássy avenue
... and so on. :)
These are my recommendations, and also so many things will appear along the way, so just look around and enjoy the atmosphere of the city.
I hope that you will like it! :)
@@petrasperspective Thank you so much for your recommendations on places of interest, very kind of you. This time I will be here for 1 week and will absolutely explore as much as I can. I probably won't be disappointed.
One week is amazing, it's perfect to see the city in a comfortable pace. :) I forgot to tell you that October is a perfect time to visit Budapest, the weather is so nice during this month (most of the time). :)
What is the weather like in Budapest in October? Winter clothes or summer clothes?
October is one of my favourite month in Hungary, the weather is still pretty warm during the day, a bit chillier at night and in the early morning hours, but most of the time you don't need coat, a thinner layer is enough. The temperature is around 20 degress (celsius) during the day and around 10 degrees at night and in the morning.
This weather is perfect for hiking and gathering around the city in my opinion. :)
October can be rainy, as well, but nothing serious (mostly quiet rain).
So my answer is that you won't need winter clothes, have at least two layers with you, so you can put one down during the day. :)
(I'm sorry in advance if it turns out that this october will be anything, but normal. :D I only wrote down the average experience.)
I hope this helped.
I'd live there for 45 years. The people are deeply depressed. Even so the country is beautiful mostly.
First of all, this comment has nothing to do with my video, it's just spreading negativity which I don't support. Second of all, I wouldn't say this in such a general way, this statement is definitely not true within the younger generations.
Such comments like this only create tension between people and negative attitude, so I would appreciate it if people would not focus on writing comment like this.
Don't get me wrong, I respect your opinion, but when it really has nothing to do with the content I make, I can't comment otherwise.
Thank you.
