Barefoot in Budapest

Yes, we were barefoot in Budapest - we were also stared down by everyone walking around. I guess it´s frowned upon.
We´ve decided that Budapest is the most beautiful city that we´ve seen! It was sunny, hot, stunning, and we had an awesome hostel. It was a little scary at first coming up to the hostel, because it´s just a doorbell in an apartment building - so you ring up to it, then wait for the door to be open, then walk up the old sketchy looking building stairs until someone finds you! We did just that, and it ended up being our favourite place to stay.
The second morning we hiked up to the highest point in Budapest (they call it the bottle opener), which is their very own ´Statue of Liberty´. She´s holding a leaf above her head which makes her look like a bottle opener from far away. From the point, one can see almost the entire city! Including the Danube river, the castle that is 1km sqaure, and all the other incredible buildings. We then took to the streets and found the Jewish area of the city, sat in the park, and debated going to the opera or not - we didn´t. Met a lovely girl from Berlin, who we´ll hopefully see next month, and enjoyed our free breakfasts with her (:
We didn´t have a lot of time there, so we´d like to go back. We highly suggest it to everyone!
