Gypsy*Friday - The Valley of Arts

There are four small villages next to the lake Balaton (the biggest one is Kapolcs) which host the annual Valley of Arts festival in Hungary. This year was the first time I have visited and I am so happy I did!!! Arts, crafts, tradition, music, great food and the strongest drinks you can imagine. It was another great reminder that sometimes the best experiences are just around the corner and you don't have to travel thousands of miles to discover something new, especially if there is so much to learn about your own heritage. It was one of those rare events when I was filled with pride and joy that I'm Hungarian! :)

 

P.S: The slightly older gentleman on the pictures is my father :)

 

 

Balaton Sound

One of the most anticipated party events in Hungary is the Balaton Sound Festival. Bikini, water, live music, 6 stages, beer, food, peace, love.... This year (for the first time) I participated and it did not disappoint! Next to some Hungarian live acts I partied for David Guetta and I decided that he might not be my favorite "artist" but he is definitely one of my favorite party makers. 2 Tequila Sunrise + 2 Cherry Schnapps + David Guetta = Party like there's no tomorrow!!! Gotta love festival season! :D  

Are you going to any festivals or open air concerts this summer?

VIVA Espana!!!

I am convinced that I had the best seat for the World Cup final...swimming stage on the lake Balaton, sunset, the most comfy sunbeds, huge LCD screens, ice cold beers and fruit cocktails... simply divine!!! And... the icing on the cake... SPAIN WON!!!!! VIVA ESPANA!!! My heart is yours forever!

Where did you watch the final?

When Hot is getting Hotter

You know that feeling when you want to stop time from moving, seasons from changing... that's how I've been feeling lately. This summer is full of adventures and travels to remote places (without an internet access which makes regular posting challenging). I love love love this weather and being outdoors most of the time is just divine. It's really unbelievable what a huge effect this temperature has on my mood (constantly happy lately!!! :))

Only 2 days after we got back from Italy it was weekend again and time to hit the lake Balaton. On the North of the lake there is a famous wine region where my father owns a small vineyard which we could borrow and voila... another perfect weekend began. I will not bore you with the details, but the let the pictures speak for themselves... lots of food, relaxing on the beach, a music festival with a huge David Guetta party, friends, surf, sunshine, reagge :)

And now I hardly have time to unpack... in 4 days I'm flying to Egypt!!! :)
