London and the serviette

London was never my favourite city and I doubt it will ever be. It is beautiful, cosmopolitan, lively... a real city. The famous parts of it are truly beautiful. That's it. To me!

Most of the times is cloudy, gloomy, cloudier and gloomier...then windy, too hot; then rainy, then gloomy... then very windy again with rain showers...phew. Even the birds were cumbersome :))

Nem a kedvenc varosom London es nem is lesz. Szep, szep..es Eljen a Kiralyno! Ennyi. Hideg van. Esik az eso. Aztan fuj a szel, ujra esik es megint beborul...aztan pillanatra nagy napsutes es viszlat Nap...2 napig nem latja senki. Meg a madarak is unjak csiripelni. :D En is unnam.

I had a smile on this arrangement upon arrival to my room. 2 strawberries, 3 bonbons and a huge serviette. I got confused whether I need to put the serviette on my laps, on my head or where exactly since I did not really have to wipe my mouth after finishing off this heavy meal.

Jol esett a fogadtatas a hotelben...ez az epres musor volt az asztalon. Sokat gondolkodtam, hogy a feher teritot hova teritsem...mert nekem nem volt szuksegem sem az epernel, sem annal a 3 szem csokinal feher, kemenyitett asztalkendore. :)

After few days of looking at the serviette which started to irritate me in my sobriety :D, I have decided to order food and wipe my mouth so that they take this out from there.

And here it is. The usage of this serviette can be well explained with the below.

Nehany nap mulva...ugy dontottem rendelek valamit az asztalkendo melle. Ha osszegyurom hatha elviszik es tobbet nem hozzak oda. Azt hiszem az alabbi foto arrol beszel, hogy oda mar kellett egy kendo :D

I have a request. If you want to make me happy...offer me at least 500 gr strawberries when I visit you. 2 strawberries make me feel weird! :))

A keresem az lenne, hogy ha meglatogatlak, legalabb fel kilo eperrel kinaljatok meg. 2 epertol elsirom magam. Koszi elore is :))

Leaving South Africa

Believe me... it's not easy. Going to a country...meeting awesome people...working with them, struggling with them, going through all ups and downs with them...having nice time with them and leaving them. Hm...life goes on. And I feel I have gained another set of great experience that I will cherish for a lifetime.

The team: Mergalin, Vanessa and Raj :)

Lunch before my departure. I did not feel like eating :)

Cutting cakes in the sales office where I invited the entire staff of Coats South Africa.

In SA, the common food is uPuthu which is a maize porridge enjoyed with a variety of roasted meats or gravy dishes. My colleague told this in a way as if he would just start kissing...

On the picture below, we both say: uPUTHUUUUUUUU! :)))

South Africa- East London, Cape Town, Johannesburg

5 more days in South Africa! I can't believe it!

Have done some travelling. I have been to East London, Cape Town and Johannesburg where besides working, have spent a great time with Sonja, Vanessa&Mergalin.

Thanks to Sonja, I have had a lovely insight of what actually Cape Town is about. WHOO-AH! What a life! Thanks to Vanessa&Mergalin, I had a very nice time meeting our colleagues and trying some more of Windhoek Draught! We almost missed our Joburg- Durban flight! :) When we reached to the gate, there were 5 names left on the screen: Thaver, Pillay, Gothard and I am not sure if the other 2 were on the flight to Durban. Anyways, it was great great fun!

Meg 5 napom van Del-Afrikaban. Mult heten jartam East Londonban, Fokvarosban, Johannesburgban... Voltam a Tabla Hegysegben libegovel, korbeutaztam az oceanpartot a Fokvarosi felszigeten, lattam a Joremenyseg fokat, Bor farmot, reszt vettem a Fokvarosi fesztivalon ami az Almasi barlangfesztivalhoz hasonlit...sor, kaja, elozene... csak annyiban kulonbozik, hogy a zeneszek nem a fuvoszenekar tagjai, hanem afrikai, reggae stilusu zenere tancolnak es a dobos nem feher mint a tesom :)))))))) Nehany foto.
