Carnaval in Pittsburgh!
My pics of last night's carnaval party are HERE.
The following pics are part of Paul and Silvia's pics.
Me being too fast for the camera.
Finished all Apfelkorn, drunk as hell, drinking water to prevent dehydration.
Drunk.
Dancing.
Drunk but still socializing :-)
But not forgetting to drink until I drop haha.
Priceless!

The Hungarian part of me explained!
Thanks to Bas for sending this to me.
It's quite remarkable how many of these things ring true for me even though I've never lived in Hungary. Of course not everything applies to me but still I'm surprised by the amount of things that are.
This is 100% true about me:
"Once the ice is broken, Hungarians become more demonstrative.
Germans and Austrians for example used to describe Hungarians as fiery, explosive, unpredictable. Expect your counterparts to speak for effect, indulging in exaggeration, overstatement, even bombast."
Everyone who knows me will agree that once I feel comfortable I become all of the above mentioned things.
Perhaps this website might help others to understand where the hell some of my character traits originate from.
If anyone really cares at all.

Right now there isn't that much snow left which might be strange with the current weather we're having. This morning it was about -26 Celsius.
That felt rather unpleasant walking to the bus stop, wind cutting my face like razor blades. Good thing the bus showed up fairly quickly.
Right now it's about -17 Celsius but with the wind blowing it's more like -21 Celsius.
Compared to us the Netherlands are having a big pussy winter haha.
Let's see how long these arctic winds will keep blowing...
