Hungary

So who goes to Hungary? Pretty much no one. But it is amazing! It is such a beautiful country that is off the beaten path of most tourists. Probably because it takes forty five years and two days without sleep to get here! Oh yeah, and we don't speak Hungarian which makes everything really difficult but luckily almost everyone here is bilingual so that helps. But, their second language is German so tricks on us!!! The place is really nice, we have a whole house to ourselves in a sleepy little town. The only downside is that we do not know how to use the furnace so it is super cold all the time! It has been about 17-20 degrees celsius during the day and colder at night. (Basically 60-68 degrees during the day). We walked about five miles from Halaszi where we are staying to Monsonmagyarovar which is the "big city" nearby. All for internet! Ps. I know we always joke that Eastern Europe is so cheap and a dollar can actually get you somewhere, but for real y'all! Hungary is so inexpensive. Jordan and I went to dinner last night at this really nice hotel/restaurant that happens to be fifteen feet from the house and dinner was like seven dollars and Monika apologized to us that we had to eat off the expensive menu! Hahaha!
Jordan and I had a sweet four hour writing session on our novels yesterday and we plan to do even more tonight! If you homies want to see more poetry I will write some more! Check out all of our pictures on our facebook pages!

Love you all!
