The best ruin bars in Budapest

You haven’t fully visited Budapest if you at least don’t go to one ruin bar. The ruin bars in Budapest have become part of the culture and they grow more popular by the day. They have evolved from being a hang out place for true hippies to a location that anyone can...

I don’t think this article is going to fit my entire “healthy blogger” persona and I know my mom would kill me for writing this piece; I grew up in a very anti-smoking household. And even though I'm 100% against smoking cigarettes, I do enjoy the occasional...

Best cafes to work/study in Budapest

1) Starbucks at Kiraly Utca Address: Budapest, Erzsébet krt. 53, 1073 I feel so basic writing Starbucks as the first option but I swear it gets more interesting after this. It's just that this Starbucks is right next to my house and it’s the first thing that came to...

Tips for learning Hungarian (if you want to survive this language)

Well I have been living in Budapest for long enough to at least try and make an effort to learn Hungarian. I say while many before me have come and failed to learn this unpenetrable language. Whenever someone asks me what's the best way to learn Hungarian I tell them...

Cafe hopping: Mandarin cafe

Okay the name of this place is completely irrelevant to the place and I have no idea why they would call it mandarin cafe when it has absolutely nothing to do with anything chinese nor has it any chinese food in it's menu. I think the owners of the place just liked the...

Don't have Mac Donalds in Budapest!

I mean you'd think the fact that Mac Donalds is a multinational blood sucking corporation which serves complete junk food to millions of people and is responsible for America's obesity problem (exaggeration) is a good enough reason for me to never have it again but...

Shisha bar: Kelet Csillaga Kávé-és Teaház‎ Shisha Cafe

Yes, I am aware of the super long name of this place but just bear with it, it's just coffee and tea house, plus shisha, but it's in Hungarian so it is just as confusing. Ever since I moved to Europe I didn't get a chance to smoke any shisha, I mean shisha was a sort of...
