What does a mom and her little boy do when they get bored inside the house…?
They sneak off to the neighboring small town for coffee! As always, whenever it’s just Ru and me, I get swept up in the mood for planning (especially in September, when it overlaps with my autumn nesting season—I’ve written about this in my original blog, daysonpaper.blog.hu too). And really, what could capture the feeling of togetherness and paying attention to each other better than two steaming, fragrant mugs of coffee on a little table?
I’m actually revisiting an old sidetrack in my life (I’ve started writing again, just for my own amusement), and sitting on the terrace of one of my favorite cafés, I couldn’t resist pulling out the story I’m currently working on.
My forever opinionated, golden-haired boy, a full mug swirling with spicy aromas, and a few blank pages to hide in when I want to close the door on the world for a while. What more could a woman wish for?

Welcome to our little virtual corner! I’m a single mother raising my wonderful son, Ruben, who has grown into a remarkable teenager. For years, I was the sole breadwinner as a Krav Maga instructor, balancing the challenges of parenthood and work on my own. When Ruben started kindergarten, I embarked on a new journey by studying healthcare management at Semmelweis University, specializing in health tourism management. After graduating, I began working in my field and experienced firsthand the tragic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic while serving as a healthcare manager in a state hospital. As the pandemic subsided, I transitioned into private healthcare, where I currently work as a practice manager. Meanwhile, our family moved from a small town to Vác, a charming historic Danube riverside city near Budapest. Here, we embrace the everyday moments and joys of life together. If you want to hear more stories about us, you’re warmly invited to visit the original Daysonpaper blog at S&Ru’s Diary on daysonpaper.blog.hu. So I decided to try living for a year on an international stage and see if there are other mothers in similar shoes for whom this diary could be a support on the harder days—just as it has been a support for me when I was able to look beyond the difficulties and sincerely believe in my own strength. Thank you for stopping by!
