Why Travelling? Yeah, good point. Maybe because I like traveling? Actually, I've never been thinking about the reason why I simply love traveling. I like traveling in every possible way. The only difference between two travellings is not that whether I liked it or not, but: how much did I like one of them, and how much the other one? Maybe an ocean cruise makes more fun therefore I like it more than a 'daytrip' to school on the 82A. |

Why Patriot? Okay, that's an easier question now. Because there is only one city on Earth that I've always loved, I do love and which I will always love more than any other settlement in the world. That's the city I live in. It's Budapest! 'The Pearl of the Danube' 'The City of Spas' ... and the city of contradictions. Lovely and sorrowful contradictions between past, present and future. Yes, that's what this city is full of. It's said that once somebody comes to Budapest with the intention of living here - then this person will never forget this city. Maybe because this was the place to our protagonist where he/she learnt how to become a 'human tank' in order to make his/her way in the crowd - or in life. Maybe because the view over the city from the Citadel attracts this person so much... there are several reasons. But once you come to Budapest - you'll always remain a 'pesti'. |
Why The? Thanks for the joke. I have no reason for being a 'The'.
So finally, if no-one has more questions, let me WELCOME you TO BUDAPEST! |
