Nincs jobb egy egészséges salátánál! A hozzávaló hazai alapanyagokat ha tehetem, piacon szerzem be, most a Vásárcsarnokban jártam. There is nothing better than a healthy salad! When I get a chance I perfer to shop at the local markets for fresh Hungarian produce, just as I did last time at the Central Market Hall in Budapest. #reklám #csodasmagyarorszag #wowhungary #vasarcsarnok #nagyvasarcsarnok #vasarcsarnokbudapest #budapest #market #hungary #healthy #healthyfood #markethall #greatmarkethall @csodasmagyarorszag @wowhungary

Over the last few years I have become more aware of my mental health and the impact it has had on my life at times. We need to look after our mental health now more than ever, especially with the impact of COVID which could deliver a devastating increase in suicides across our families, communities, teams and workplaces. I am standing with @theunitedproj as an Ambassador, to ensure as much unnecessary suffering is prevented as possible. Nothing is more important than my family, friends and teammates. We now, more than ever, need to UNITE and support each other. I encourage you all to follow and get behind @theunitedproj today!! #iamunited #reversementalillness #mentalhealth #suicideprevention
