Our first day in Budapest was amazing – fell in love immediately. There is so much to do, like hang out by the wading pool downtown — Akvárium klub — and watch all the beautiful people or read a book or play on your phone.

This video was shot around 3 am, way past 4 pm. Kind of funny because we were convinced you would be able to see the effect of white nights, eke the time of year it doesn’t get dark in Jenia’s hometown. Not quite so on this video — but it really is true. I guess…
