Currently in Budapest, Hungary

pepez

Hello!

I am working as a software engineer in Budapest. I came to Hungary in 2005 from Finland which is my home country. Before Budapest I have had a three month traineeship in Krakow, Poland. My current company also sent me to Switzerland for some time. 

I have had a blog since February 2005,

:cheers:

Thanks!

I don't speak too much Hungarian, just enough to survive every day life. I have been lazy to study... :whistle:

I come from Paris and with a friend we decided to spend few days in Budapest. The fist day, as we were walking down the main pedestrian street near the Café Anna, two girls talked to us asking if we knew an irish pub.

They said that there were students on holidays and they come from the south of Hungary. They were good looking, well weared but not sexy. One of the two girls was even pretty class. We talked with her ten minutes and we went to have a drink. The girls brought us to a place call Galaxia restaurant located  very near. It look like a smart bar...in any cases not to a ladies bar. We drunk all together two beers, one cappuccino, one red bull and one little glass of cherry liquor

After one hour the waitress gave us the bill. We had to pay 44000 forints (180 euros). We said that it was much to expensive aund we asked for the price list without any result. We had an argument with the waitress and an other employee. After a while, we finally decided to pay and we said bye to the girls short time after getting out from the restaurant

The morning after, we came to the police to complain. The office is located in the tourism information center. The officer who took it  knew the system and told us they were other bars in this kind in Budapest. The next day, we saw two italians who spent in the bar 240 euro for two bottles of wine. We all came back to the bar to have explanations. One of the italians was very angry. Police arrived but finally the result was zero.

We spent four days in Budapest and many times we saw two girls walking down the street trying to make the same swindle

Budapest is à nice city. Prefer Pest for the housing and to go out and Buda for the visit. Girls are prettier than in France or in Espana but thre is not much difference

Hi Pepez,

Welcome to the forum. Budapest is a beautiful city. Do they still have those shop with miniature plush animals?? I don't remember where it was but somewhere in central part of the town. I have been there for couple of weeks when I was a child, Hungary was one   of those places we were allowed to travel from communist Poland... Those plush toys and Margarita island with Buda & Pest statues stayed in my memory, I don't remember much more... And hills full of grapes... beautiful!!
