The council of the small village in western Hungary that I call home recently announced a series of monthly hikes in which the settlement's inhabitants can participate free of charge.
The first hike -- a five-hour excursion to the nearby town of Kőszeg and its surrounding hills -- took place this past weekend. Great weather; wonderful scenery; and friendly company. We couldn't have asked for anything more. I'm already looking forward to the next one in April!
