This-and-That #2
Budapest, Roosevelt Tér, parking lot in front of Akadémia, 8:15 am. Everyday’s governmental security’s Audi A7s, big muscles as drivers. One of them (MEU-006), all doors opened, pumped music volume to maximum: Guns n’ Roses’ Paradise City. Was he ironic or just wishful thinking?

Budapest at work
Actually, it’s more about the works on Margit Bridge, not allover Budapest, but I assume the things are more or less the same across the city. When I first came here, the bridge was far away from being ready. They were only working at the very base layer – the metalic one, which supports everything ...
