In the article, I attempt to speak about hospitality in relation to the contexts of the city and travelling, starting from the ethnographic detail and moving towards the anthropological general, and back again. I attempt to look for universal attributes of hospitality, to see how they were realised in my own experience. These are the goals that guided me in writing the current text, which is devoted to memory, travelling, experiencing various forms of hospitality during distant and short journeys, during research projects and “ordinary” moving in a culturally alien environment and city; among people and things, with the baggage of one’s own culture and one’s own corporeality. While reconstructing my own experiences of hospitality, I tried to confront them with the reflection of cultural researchers crucial to anthropology. I decided to quote them abundantly, to allow these passages to correspond with each other and with the adopted topic, and thus to give them a special kind of hospitality in the text.
