I've only been on a plane once in my life, 13 years ago, to fly across the continent. Now I'm flying across the ocean twice and five other flights withing Europe (still can't believe how feckin cheap those flights are) but I haven't even really given that part any thought. My only thing I'm a bit concerned with is being by myself in Budapest. My Hungarian is very poor (conversations were multilingual in my house, confused the hell out of my friends.) but I'm guessing more people speak English than I think, and if not I'm pretty sure I can get by, but still the reluctance is there. I'm actually trying to decide how much Forint to buy, as they don't take Euro's there yet, and I don't want to be leaving with any.
