Travel in Hungary

Travel in Hungary

I am looking over a map of Hungary and dreaming up the ways in which I shall travel here. I have a Hobohideout.com show to ship in Budapest at the Loft Hostel - I make web pages for hotels/ hostels as a trade for bed - but they do not have any openings for me until July 21st. Today is the 16th and I stand within120 km from that city - a single day of bicycle riding.

I feel that I must leave my friends apartment in Gyor no later than tomorrow, as there is a certain unspoken time limit that guest can remain as "guests" in someone's home. So where will I go for the intervening four days?

I thought momentarily about heading south and riding a big loop around Lake Balaton, but then I realized that I would just have to ride north again to make Budapest. I also considered making a quick run over through Austria, Slovenia, and Croatia in a gigantic wrong-way arch to ol' Budapest, but this is far too far out of my path to Turkey for my good directional senses to bear. I also only have four days before I should roll into the Loft Hostel, and I think that I would rather find another occupation than pushing pedals for the entire duration of this time. I think that if I am going to travel through three fresh foreign lands, that I would want to at least look at them. So the question remains: where will I go for these next four days?

I am looking at the maps now, waiting for a dot, a mountain, a river, a Road to call my name.

I tried posting before...so if this shows up all over the place, oops, it;s all I can say. What do you do to be able to travel so much for so long? Or is it just, work as it comes? Curious is all. Nice stuff.

I love travelling too!
Peace

Hello,

Thanks for the comment. Now I just try to piece together a living doing internet work as well as various little writing assignments. I am also saving a good deal of money by trading internet pages on Hobohideout.com for accommodation.

If you have any more questions about working to make up the money to travel, just email me!

Thanks,

Wade
