Hello everybody in blog world!

I'm writing to you from Jerusalem; the city which is home to the crucifixion and ressurection of J. Dawg, the place where the Jewish messiah shall appear and the third holiest site in the Ilsamic religion. The old city is divided into four quarters, housing these three religions as well as Armenians funnily enough. I have been Israel for about a week and a half now and Jerusalem for two days staying with a friend of Dad's. The rest of the time Ive been with Dad's family and Mum's relatives and most of my time her will be family hopping...which is weird and irritiating because I hate organising stuff due to laziness and I dont know most of these people so its always a little awkward. But I spouse Im just couchsurfing the little community my parents have created.

Before Israel I spent 3 weeks in Hungary mainly betwen Budapest and Uny where the two families live. Id like to think that in that time I picked up a smidgen of language but I certainly felt a lot more comfortable around it. I felt like I wasted a bit of my time there waiting for people to tell me what was happening but at the time I didnt have access to money so I felt kind of trapped but all more for next time I spouse.
