Looking back 2021

The year of 2021 was an ordinary one. In these viral days, it absolutely can be qualified as a good year. For me, 2021 had two well isolable parts. The first part was dedicated to the last months of my last maternity leave. I enjoyed the full summer spent at home with the kids. In the meantime, I busily prepared for my final exam to complete the master's degree programme and get the qualification of economist in marketing.

And then, as a second part I returned to my workplace in September, after Nolen started the nursery. First year in the nursery, last year in the elementary school and last semester at the university - all in 2021.

We kept on hiking and cycling in 2021 as well. This is what we find pleasure in and energizes us. Sometimes we keep traditions, sometimes create. As for me, I have a couple of habits that I never want to give up. Those habits that I do daily, weekly, regularly such as morning gym, greeting the sunrise from the hill, healthy lifestyle, home-made dishes, etc... We also have events that we repeat in every year such as holiday in the countryside together with my sister and our four kids, hiking in Mátra, canoeing in Szigetköz and sleeping in tent, Balaton-round, grape harvest, Halloween, etc... My mom, sister and me tried to organize more girlish programmes and spent more time together, without kids.   

This year, we have a couple of wide family gathering. Bálint left the elementary school, Vanessza and Levente turned 18, Botond turned 20...

Some of our loved ones' relatives left this life that we also bore hard.

Vaccinated or non-vaccinated distinction still ongoing but may eased slightly. Known experiences with vaccination is mixed but mainly under my expectations. Where are we at the end of 2021? Some at the third round of vaccination, over covid, delta variant and at the beginning of omikron...
