Had a great time at St. Brigid’s Day celebrating women’s creativity in Ireland & Hungary. Extra special to see my mum reading works by Irish & Hungarian writers. Huge thanks to the Irish Embassy for a fantastic evening! ☘️📚 #StBrigidsDay #WomenWriters

My sister and I braved a freezing January night in Budapest for a packed house at the Erkel Theatre—an all-English Middle-earth music event (a rare treat here). From Shire whimsy to Mordor menace, it felt like stepping into Tolkien’s world. Worth every frostbitten step! 🍃❄️ #LOTR #MiddleEarth

Who says Lake Balaton is only a summer destination? Just look at this breathtaking winter wonderland in Keszthely.

While summer might bring sunshine and swims in Lake Balaton’s waters, winter offers its own kind of magic. ❄️

Two days ago: fresh off a dog walk with Sümi, rocking my finest hat hair but couldn’t resist stopping for a cheeky mug of forralt bor (mulled wine) in the dazzling Budapest sunshine.

Today: freezing cold, bundled up like a burrito, and wondering how I ever believed winter could be so kind. 🥶

Canadian House of Commons Member Charlie Angus: In our country, we believe healthcare should be accessible to all, while assault weapons should not. You clearly don’t share that viewpoint… We don’t want what you’re selling, Donald.

🎅✨ Mikulás came! In Hungary, Santa arrives on December 6th, filling boots with treats. Smarties for me, instant mash for Andrew (he’s recovering from surgery), and our tiny dog stole the show in her Christmas sweater. Boldog Mikulás Napot! 🎄✨
