Hi, this is my very first message. I would like to know if anyone has been to Budapest, and if so, what did you like/dislike about it? Went to Prague last March and loved it - very haunting and dramatic.

I hope you do get to visit Budapest one day. Do you like to travel? I love to and am planning on going to Africa this August. I am meeting with various friends who have been there so we can discuss the highlights of their trips. It is one looooong flight - I know that much. I can't wait to get safari clothes like Jane Goodall. Has anyone been there?

MG, If it were up to me and the bank, I would do nothing but travel and write. However, they have a different view! ha! I have been to Scotland and England, but that is about as far away as I have gotten. Candice is the one you need to converse with, as that girl as been everywhere. And come to think of it....she never takes me...hmmm...Yuhhoooo Candiceeee....we need to talk girl...

Hi Marianne! My husband was an international pilot for TWA. He has been about everywhere. Many places were a few decades ago. But if you have specific questions I would be happy to pass on for a response. He is not a ready talker fo such things but I might be able to glean an items or two or be able to pass on info I already have. My mother-in-law, who travelled extensively onher sons free tickets, loved Africa, particularly Kenya and Hawaii the best. She too, went everywhere. Stick around in the forum for awhile and see what turns up.

I love sandy beaches too (as long as I have books to read). It was really fun going to beaches when I was younger - just laying out and trying to get the best tan possible. Man, have things changed. Now, I feel guilty and stupid if I don't have a 50 spf on. I don't feel very sexy putting thick white goop on my face and neck, but oh... that old coconut oil Hawaian Tropic stuff was great.

Hey jawjaw. Sorry it took me a while to respond, but I have been battling a severe cold and infection all last week. Great way to come home from Italy. As far as budapest, I've never been and don't know anyone who has. I have friends who spent a year in Africa working for various NGOs. That is something I wouldn't mind doing for a year. I can tell you that you should wear sweatpants, layers, pack lots of snacks, water, and moist clothes for the long plane trip. Stagnant dry air always gets me on those long flights.
