Vác, you are amazing…

I definitely wanted to spend one of the last summer days in Vác—if only because in normal times I spend so much time here, and who knows when I’ll have the chance again. Due to the ever-changing circumstances, I fear that this year I won’t get the opportunity to take peaceful morning walks along the Danube, explore playgrounds with Ru, and enjoy a heavenly slice of cake at Mihályi Confectionery (which truly lives up to its reputation). In this post, I’m sharing with you the irreplaceable last moments of the slowly fading summer heat that we managed to catch in this captivating town.

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!
