Thanks to Rob Irwin, I found out that an old friend was living in Budapest, Hungary. Brian and I have been friends since Grade 7 (12 years old), but had not spoken in about 12 years until now.
Brian and his lovely girlfriend Lucie, invited us over to their place for dinner. I must say, it is quite a spectacular apartment on the top 2 floors of their building, with balconies overlooking Parliament, Budapest Castle, Basilicas and other wonderful sights of Budapest.
We had some drinks and some great Indian food, and basically caught up on the past 12 years or so.
Brian originally moved over to Europe to play in the NFL Europe, then went to business school in Brussels. He seems to be very successful in his company and enjoys his lifestyle in Europe!
It was an excellent night and a little surreal to be catching up with one of my first friends from Canada, but in Hungary. Although brief, it was great and we even had an invite from Lucie to head to Vienna with her the next day!!! *Stub
