So I took the overnight train to Budapest and on the train I met two other travelers. One was this British guy, named Shaun, and the other was this Canadian guy, named Kyle. We all shared a cabin together and chatted. Shaun had been traveling in India and then he lost his bankcard, so he was taking the train back to London to get a new bankcard so he could resume his travels. Kyle had been away from Canada for a few years, and he was last living and working in South Korea, but now traveling to make his way home. We were all tired and so we converted the couchettes and tried to sleep. It was quite cold though. I think I managed to get maybe one hour of half-sleep. We all arrived in Budapest around 5am, where Shaun realizes his wallet is missing. Kyle tries to help him look for it, but no luck… I exchange information with Kyle since we are both staying in Budapest for a few days and then I guess Shaun is heading back to London, on the train, with no wallet, meaning no Inter Rail pass he was using to get to London? I’ll never know what happened with that guy. Hope he found his wallet.

After I slept, the first thing I did was eat at this falafel/hummus place called “Hummus Bar.” Mmmm, some of the best falafel I’ve had (no picture of falafel, sorry, but there’s a picture of the sign leading to the bar). I did a little bit of wandering (very little) then I became tired so I returned to the hostel for a nap. During the night I went to this place called Szimpla with these Brazilian girls I met at my hostel (with like a group of 10 people, they met up with some euro travelers that they’d met in Berlin).
