Xpat Opinion: Experiencing Starbucks In Budapest
- 1 Mar 2013 8:00 AM
- food & drink
If you come to Budapest today you will find Starbucks at lots of different locations in town. Today it is a part of the city life that we have become used to, therefore it is strange to think of the fact that the first Starbucks only came to Budapest in 2010.
National Philharmonic Orchestra Concert, Budapest, 28 February

- community & culture
A selection of works with a connection to Vienna feature at this special concert. Born 115 years ago, Erich Wolfgang Korngold caused a sensation as a composer while still a child – perhaps predestined to do so by his given middle name of Wolfgang. Among the greats of the time, he captured the attention of Mahler, Puccini, Richard Strauss, Sibelius, Arthur Nikisch and Károly Goldmark. He was aged ...
Xpat Opinion: New Hungarian Education System: Model Was France
- 25 Feb 2013 8:00 AM
- current affairs
I don’t know why it didn’t occur to me before. Rózsa Hoffmann, the Francophile, most likely turned to the French system when under her stewardship the whole Hungarian primary and secondary education system was turned upside down. Among other things, she wanted children to start their language education with a romance language (clearly she had French in mind) and wanted to discourage the study of ...
Xpat Opinion: Living In The Hungarian Countryside
- 21 Feb 2013 10:35 AM
- getting around
Once upon a time, László and Linda Kondor would have been greatly entertained by the idea that urbanites such as themselves would be happy retiring in Kapolcs Village on a vineyard estate in the Hungarian countryside. Both had lived, and worked for decades in both the city of Chicago and Budapest, but late 2007 found them doing just that - walking away from all they owned and retiring to the ...

Xpat Opinion: Teachers & Their Students: The Hungarian Situation
- 24 Jan 2013 7:59 AM
- current affairs
Although the leaders of HÖOK insist that “student unity” is intact, I see it differently. The Orbán government as usual has managed to drive a wedge between the two organizations: HÖOK, the present-day KISZ, and the newly formed HaHa (Hallgatói Hálózat). Just as it managed to divide the trade unions and negotiate only with the ones loyal to the government. And the same thing happened a couple of ...

I went to the circus for the first time in ages this weekend – taking my family with me. We had great fun. The acts were good and there were no scary clowns! And the place was absolutely full so the atmosphere was excellent.
