On The Road Again


It´s a very hot day in july 2007. Sun is burning down on the car which my husband drives valiantly along the bumpy roads. I sit next to him trying the best not to move too much, hoping for an early end of this journey through Hungarian villages. But I ought to have known better. While I am talking to a film distributor on the phone, a difficult person to deal with, the car suddenly stops. After the phone call I find myself alone in the car parked next to a ditch at the roadside. 300 feets away my husband is talking to the former servant and driver of Count Schwarzenberg, a busy man who cares for houses being up for sale. This would turn out to be the start of a big new adventure!
