First General Meeting of NAWA Year In Budapest

With autumn just around the corner, it signaled the first general meeting of the North American Women's Association (NAWA) year bringing together familiar faces, as well as some new ones.

It was about having some fun and learning about many enjoyable and useful things in Budapest and helpful hints about the Hungarian kitchen. Held at the usual venue, the “Raddison Hotel”, the ladies were treated to a functional Hungarian language presentation by life coach Zsofi Kamenczki. She was taking you through the basics of vowels, word pronunciation to useful tips for when you are out and about. Though as long as I have been here, I still cannot get my head around when someone says to you “hello” when we say goodbye. Other treats included plans of trips and tours that are on the NAWA calendar, like cave walk under the castle, fund raising “bake-bring and buy” and charity bingo events. To finish off, there was some speed dating. Is there no end to what these women get up to? Words and photos by Russell Skidmore for XpatLoop.com
