100 strangers, 100 Personalities, 100 Stories in 365 days

I had an idea... it began with an article on the flickr blog a few weeks ago. I decided that I would do it. As Barney Stinson would say "Cahllenge accepted!". I decided that I would do it within 365 days. It's not an impossible mission. I have to ask a stranger to be my model in each 3,65 days and I have to persuade him or her to tell me something about his/her life.... Would it be difficult? Eventually we live in a big city (in Hungarian scale) where people don't speak to each other and they are mistrustful... Our parents taught us not to speak to strangers...
This will be my challenge in the next 364 days. Plus I don't want to be boring and I'd like to introduce many different people. We will see...

So I met this girl yesterday and the countdown was started. She read a book from Vavyan Fable (a Hungarian writer) in a small park between the Western Railway Station and a new office building. We spoke about school and job (I have to improve my subjects!) than she approved a photo although she doesn't like to be photographed. Than we said goodbye.
Stranger Nr1
It wasn't easy. I was embarrassed but the photo was taken thanks for Stranger Nr1!

Birth of a building 1 - Construction pit shoring/preliminary works

This series will show you one of my first construction. This topic is a bit far from the title of the blog but this is a part of me too. So I will give you photos and descriptions about the works.
I can follow the formation of the built environment from the first line because of my job. In my posts I will inform you about a birth of a building in Budapest. I hope you will enjoy it.

Lets see...

We would like to built a 10 m deep construction pit in the middle of Budapest. It won't be an easy task because there are residential, diplomatic buildings and offices in the neighborhood.

Normafa

Tibor asked me whether I had liked to join them to take a short excursion to Normafa. I had... Normafa is a popular place in Budapest. It is in the hills of Buda. It has a nice panorama to the city. I really recommend taking a short trip there if you visit Budapest.
We met on Moszkva square (it's new name is Széll Kálmán square but the most people call it just Moszkva). Gyuri was late... a lot... After he got there we took the bus (21) to Normafa.
