Spontaneity for the Win

Two weekends ago I had no plans ... I know ... Inconceivable!!!

But on Friday morning while I was trying to figure out what to do with myself I got a most welcome message from Becky inviting me to Kecskemét to spend the night. This was a doubly good invitation because not only did I not have any plans but I had never been to Kecskemét! :D

I packed a backpack and headed out.

That evening Becky and I went to a poetry slam in an underground "literature coffeehouse." It was exactly the kind of thing I would have done in America and it was great.





They served some very good tea

And had a very cool clock :)

Then the next day Becky took me on a tour of Kecskemét. It is a beautiful city with some incredible buildings.



With a beautiful church. Somehow all the churches in Hungary are equally unbelievably artistic and beautiful.







We also went to a lovely museum.





Then we went to Mexican food at a great little local place :)


I love seeing new cities :) Kecskemét definitely gets two thumbs up :)

  1. Does Kecskemét mean "fancy" in Hungarian?
