after 10 years in London,
these are the Hungarian habits
I've fallen back into
(let's see if people agree
there is always room for a 'fröccs'
I barely drank in London... now it's
basically a summer ritual
buying meat from the butcher again
(normal here...
and somehow cheaper)
calling people to see if they're free
... right now.
no calendars.
no planning two weeks ahead
walking into restaurants
without a booking
"table for 2?"
"of course"
using Facebook Messenger again
why are we obsessed??
seeing my grandma instead of
FaceTiming her
turns out living 20 minutes away
beats a video call
