Move over Samantha Brown and Rick Steves' Europe! Who do we need to talk to get you your own travel show, Lillian? This video is stunning, of course, Lillian. I knew next to nothing about Budapest, so obviously, I've been missing out. I enjoyed your interspersal of author quotes along with your own commentary. And what I particularly love about your travel videos is how you so beautifully and thoughtfully conclude them by commenting about what your trip means to you and what you're carrying forward from it. Thank you for sharing this! ❤

Thank you thank you, Tammy! This one felt really personal, and I ended up agonizing over the editing process (for a month +) because I wanted to "do it justice." Happy with how it came out in the end, and I learned a TON making it, but ooohh boy am I kinda glad it's off my plate and out in the world :)

What a stunning place. I've never been to Hungary. To a couple of Hungary's neighbouring countries, yes, but not Hungary. Lovely as always Lillian to see you sharing what you're passionate about, and to see you and your partner being heaps adorable and adoring of one another. It's strange, but I'm nostalgic for the age that you are at now, when I lived abroad and travelled. I wish I had video footage of that time - many a photo, yes (and at the same time, not nearly enough), but no video. You have a very soothing voice for narrating historical/travel content.

I am going to be in Budapest Sept. 3rd, 2024, I am older and know I will not be able to walk up too many steps, just wondered why you did not take the Funicular to Budda Castle. or is it a Venticular. I hope it is still working.

The Funicular was in operation while we were there, but there was a massive line for it and we didn't want to wait - I'd recommend trying to get there earlier in the day if you can to avoid the massive line! I'd also recommend looking into the Budapest public transportation apps (one for your tickets and one for the bus/tram/metro schedules and routes), they were super helpful for getting around the city. Hope you have a great trip in September!!
