I had what I have come to understand is a pretty unusual kinda start to sex work. Basically what was appealing was that I always felt a call, uh, some sort of affinity to sex work and sex workers. Like, I think that many people are fascinated by sex work

But I couldn’t dig up any explicit videos from the hotel—before or after its abandonment. So I had to have sex in it. And it had to be on camera.

Around the World in 80 Ways: Budapest (the traditional edit)
