Life can bring upon us the most unexpected changes in a
split of a second. I have been waiting for days to write my 500
th
post and on the day I was swept off my feet on a spontaneous adventure and only
got back to The House with The Garden last night. I’ve learnt many things about
traditional Kraut and Slovak costumes, headpieces and made friends with an amateur
maker. We spent ages looking at old family photos and my heart was pounding
over the beauties of the past. I also remembered the sadness history brought on
us as a family and on many other Hungarian families at the era of imagined
freedom, when we lost all that was captured by the early photographers of the
villages around us. And not only were the photographs lost but much more valuable
things that are more than land and houses, but lives.
