August 10 - 17 : Budapest + sziget fest!

I forgot how great Budapest is. It's great. And huge. And cheap. Still my favorite city. I stayed in a hostel my first couple days, then I camped on the island [sziget] during the festival. I wasn't planning on going to the festival alone, so I was a little concerned that it was gonna suck, but instead it was great. Like a massive state fair with more to do and music instead of agriculture.

One day was super stacked on the main stage. First my friend's boyfriend's band, then Bastille, Lily Allen, and Macklemore. By the time Lily Allen came around, I had managed to get to the front row and people had to be rescued by security guards. Also, I'm pretty sure there was some girl literally crying for love of Bastille.

Macklemore was amazing. I didn't want to be totally blown away by Macklemore but I totally was.

Escape the room! I played by myself, but I still made it (with some help).

Happy birthday to me. My birthday present to myself was a trip to Fragola. Also to hide in my tent on the last day of the festival without feeling bad.
