今年從八月盛夏的大假期回米蘭之後就沒再出過遠門。
I didn't go any trip since back from the August long vacation.

去布達佩斯的這張機票，是在Final Project很忙碌的時候為了慰藉自己的辛苦，很早之前就決定的。去之前沒有做任何的旅遊功課所以當然什麼都不知道，也自然沒有太多的累贅期待。所以看到布達佩斯白日時，那種富有過去磅礡卻正在凋零的活歷史模樣，以及不需要多餘字句去形容的華麗夜景，自然非常滿足。
In order to release the tension I got from my final project in master course, I booked the flight for Budapest roughly 2 months ago. Because of busy, I prepared nothing before this trip. Hence, I didn't get any burdensome expectation for Budapest.
Therefore when I saw the buildings in city center that were exactly telling the history in Budapest by them selve, and the the glorious nightscape, I was extremely satisfied.
到達的第一天下午在路上閒晃時，碰巧撞見了一間新開三個月的vintage shop- Cydonia。
The first afternoon, I met a new-open vintage shop-Cydonia coincidentally while hanging out.
因為這間店的緣故，激起了我想刻意尋找、探訪布達佩斯復古/二手店的慾望。
And it motivated my desire to purposely search the other similar shops in Budapest.
Vintage這個字在字典裡可以查到原意是從葡萄酒來的，指在某一特定年份所釀造出來高品質的酒。後來發展出的延伸意就有「古色古香」、和「上等」的意思。
If checking the meaning of "vintage" in dictionary, we can learn that it is originally related to wine. It especially means the high-quality wine made in a particular year.
Nowadays it also indicates "OLD, BUT HIGH QUALITY".
所以，其實並不能每一間「二手店」都能夠稱自己叫Vintage Shop。
但每一樣東西的品質到底是如何，又是含有主觀層面的，所以就只能自由心證了。
Therefore we can not call every second-hand shop as vintage shop.
But, it's included something subjectively personal judgment.

這一次在布達佩斯探訪了五、六間「vintage shop」之後，在我心中能夠真的配的上Vintage這個字眼中美好意義的，就只有Cydonia。
In this trip, I visited several vintage shops, but only Cydonia can meet the beautiful meaning of the word "vintage" in my mind.
（走過的其他店家。有些因為vintage這個字眼所以在價格上已經非常拿翹）
In Cydonia, the apparel is mainly from 1700's to 1970's (according to owner), but also with some modern Hungarian designers' work.
知道自己販售商品的故事以及年代，是我喜歡Cydonia非常重要的一點。
當然年輕老闆娘的氣質很特殊，很是吸引人，也很重要。
The most important reason why I like Cydonia is that she can tell you when and how she got her products. On the other hand, the atmosphere of owner is quite special and charming for me, too.
（櫃檯邊上為數眾多的復古耳環們。因為我並沒有耳洞，所以這種舊式夾式耳環最符合我愛漂亮又怕痛的人的需要。）
( Since I don't have ear piercings, so this kind of vintage clip-ons totally meet my needs.)
（當然耳針型的也不少。）
(Of course they got a lot knot earrings too.)
（老式的女用領巾夾，非常貼心的還附有可打開的小鏡子，可以隨時讓自己保持在最佳狀態。）
(The vintage tie clip for women. It is so convenient that even with a little mirror.)
雖然Cydonia在門面上很像什麼便宜服飾大賣場，但通常外表長這樣的vintage shop都是淘寶或是欣賞復古好東西的去處。
Although the gate of their shop looks not so attractive as others, it's definitely a nice spot to visit if you want to discover something interesting.
