The Preparation

Hello Everyone!

As I promised, I am back to tell you why a 23 years old girl decided to leave all her life, family, friends and everything she has known and went to London. I do apologize that it took way too long to write this, but I was in Hungary and Italy and I will let you know about that time too.

In my last post I told you, I had a nice life and I was really happy, but I felt that I needed more. I cannot really explain the feeling, but I felt that I must go. It was one of the strongest instincts I have ever got in my life. I was always a “dreamer” and I still am. Always wanted to see the World, discover all the miracles and meet new people. (Later on I will bring you some stories about other people’s lives too.)But now, let me tell you how for the first time in my life (at least this is the first I remember) I was attracted to things and joined the “law of attraction”…and how it all actually started.

It was in the middle of November and I will remember until I die, that the sun was shining and my boss asked me into his office. I have never imagined that this meeting will change my whole life. 😊 (Just a bit of explanation to understand better, but in 2013, in Hungary the whole government system was changed and they started the preparation in 2012 last quarter.) He told me that I will have to start in January a training course, the office will pay for it, but it means I cannot leave the office for XY years (do apologize guys, but I have no idea how much was it😅) or if I want to leave earlier, I have to pay back the training’s cost… and that was the moment what hit me so hard. I told him that okay, and I will do it, but I felt I would collapse.

I went outside to the fresh air and started to think. I was 23 years old and I never had money to travel, see the World…not even to move together with my (ex)boyfriend. My parents always gave us everything they could (and even more), but they weren’t allowed to give those things and I never wanted them to support my “hobbies” or my life, because they have done it for so long. They raised me and my brother wonderfully. 

The salary was nothing actually… So I had to do something else (and that’s what I really felt). I will die in the same village where I was born, I will live with my parents until I will get a mortgage which I will never be able to pay back and the farest place I have ever been will be Budapest.

So I called my (ex) boyfriend and told him that I will move to London in January.😅 I explained to him everything and he said okay. (Why London? Because God bless my German teachers during the 12 years they tried to teach me Dutch, but I still cannot say a word.😅 I have never liked that language and I don’t really know why. So I thought I speak English- well very quickly I had to realize that I don’t- and another reason was that jobs are in London, so that’s why.) I went back to the office and told my Boss that I will give my notice on the last day of November and I will move to London. He was so understandable and supportive about this.

But still we had no savings, no money and both of us had debts. And here comes the law of attraction… I had no idea how I would manage financially to come to London, but I knew I would do it, no matter what. I had only one high school classmate here and he helped us to do the CVs, but we had no idea where we would sleep or what we would do there. We wanted to get a job from Hungary to London, but the World doesn’t work like this. You physically have to go to interviews and no one gives you a job just because you look cute (even if I do). So we had no idea about anything, but we were sure we were coming on the 9th January 2013. (Why that day? Well, we closed our eyes and pointed to a date on the calendar, checked the tickets, the prices were okay, so we kept the date) 

Miracles just started to happen about the money. We got bonuses, unpaid projects had been paid, family helped as much as they could…so in the end we just had a bit of money which was okay until we found our first job. (That’s another story!) Everyone was so supportive, helpful and of course worried about us. (We were worried too, but of course I can only admit this now. 🤣) 

2 weeks before our flight we went to Budapest to an agency, which promised some job in England (no, not in London, somewhere up North in a  village), so we went there, but we had to realize that he wants so much money and no one would wait us in the airport, we supposed to buy new tickets to another airport, etc. So we left the office, stand in the middle of Budapest (it was my 3rd time in the capital) and we had no idea where we would sleep or what we would do after we arrived in London. Now it is so funny how God (Universe, Life, etc) helped us. My friend just checked his phone, because we heard an interview a couple of days before with the most popular Hungarian Lettings Agencies owner, and their HUngarian office was only a couple of minutes walk from us in Budapest, so we went there.They were very nice and we were about to rent a room and in the contract they have guaranteed a driver who will pick up us in the airport. 

That’s how and why in London. Never give up and just have faith. So many years later I have realized that we actually just attracted everything for us. Only with our faith and positive attitude. We do not always need to know everything or control the things around us. Sometimes it is enough if you just truly know what is the end, what you really want and let the life flows… and of course need a bit of sparkle from your (Spit)fire.😘

With lots of Love:

Krisz (Spitfire)

P.S.: In the last 2 weeks I was lucky enough to collect lots of so many stories of interesting people’s life and some experiences (including a lovely Italian wedding), which I will share with you.
