Ten reasons why I hate Budapest
1. Mercenary cab drivers, bar owners and restauranteurs
2. Lack of “pooper scooper” law enforcement- dog shit everywhere
3. Arrogant “my shit doesn’t stink” attitude from sports teams
4. Terrible parking
5. Center of bureaucracy- nothing can be done without central approval
6. No public place is grafitti-free
7. Airport prices triple normal prices for Coca-Cola products
8. Drab concrete block flats create an apocalyptic 1984 word
9. Everything is more expensive there
10. Viktor Orban. Hungary’s fascist dictator, lives there
No not all but it’s part of its. I love the hills as they are accessible by bike, foot, bus and car.
even if i’m half hungarian, i’m still livin in germany, can’t even speak hungarian that much so i’m kinda foreigner as well. the reason why i spend almost every holiday in my favorite “home” are the streets of budapest, that i know so well but everytime i come back there are new things. i think the young creative change of budapest is one of the reasons and it’s also my favorite to just walk trough the city, the little streets with their great architecture.
If your 1/8th Hungarian, you are Hungarian. If your Joe Miano, your just a Joe. Budapest, is my second home from Toronto, Canada but is my Native homeland too. As a true European, i have such a proud history that cannot be silenced by most western libtards. The proof is when you visit and experience Budapest, Hungary with hopefully somebody that can help you absorb even a tiny bit of what is there. You’ll leave with the feeling of amazement and happiness. You’ll be looking forward to your next visit. The people there love life, have been through much hardship, and move forward with challenges, but never leave or give up their culture and heritage. This is a no-no for anyone trying to convince a Hungarian that they should just melt into a mixed group of people and give up their identity. Not going to happen, anything else may.
I’ve been in Budapest for 3 times and always found something new,staied. at Danubius Gellert Hotel.To me Budapest and its people are the best in Earope.If not problems with Schengen Viza,I’ll be in Budapest every 6 month,as the termal pools in Budapest just fantastik.
hey Vedo, you putz, I am now a Hungarian citizen and I live in Hungary and have spent much more time here in the past 22 years than you have. It is amazing how nationalistic expatriates are. You can afford to be conservative if you live in a country as free and open as Canada. It is the liberal philosohy that allows you that allows such fre.edom
