Letna Park

Letna Park is marvelous. It’s high up and overlooks the city center. Most of the people hang out at the beer garden…. what else, what else… it’s just chill and kind of the daily place to hang out.

‘Pest, Food, ‘n’ Hair

I met up with Kyle again and we saw the Pest side of the city today: Hero’s square, the other castle, parliament, and other things. After parliament we ate dinner at Eden Vegetarian, yet another cafeteria style place. We shared the plate of food. After dinner I went to get my haircut, and it was the most stressful haircut ever, the girl was just doing things that I was not used to, like straightening my bangs so she could trim them and also I had wanted to keep my length but it became really short. (There was someone translating to her what I wanted. I guess that was lost in translation). In the end the haircut turned out good, I think. The bangs are a little bit off but not super noticeable. Dora knew where I was getting my haircut at, and she rang the place while I was there. Her and Martin came to say a proper goodbye to me since I was leaving the next day. After the cut, I met back up with Kyle and the sun was down now. We chilled near the Danube for a little bit, became a little bit mesmerized by the fast-flowing water, which looks like gold with the reflection of the lights on the water.

Post Vasarely ‘ventures

After visiting the Vasarely museum, Martin, Dora and I walked to Margaret Island, which was pretty close. The island is mostly a park. There is a kind of zoo in the island too with mostly birds. Peacocks were squawking about. We all ate at Hummus Bar for dinner. My third time there. No more…

Kalemegdan Park and Belgrade Fortress

My favorite thing about Belgrade was definitely Kalemegdan Park and the Belgrade Fortress, which sort of co-exist on the same plot of land. I spent most of my last day here, before having to catch a bus to Novi Sad.
