Invitation: Nadja Massun's Exhibition At Hungarian House Of Photography
- 21 Sep 2012 9:00 AM
- community & culture
I’ve heard that people from afar can say or claim whatever they want about themselves. Putting a little twist on the original saying, people can say whatever they want about a person that comes from afar. In case of Nadja Massun, the proverb may be even truer since she does come from very far she lives in Mexico but was born in Africa to a Hungarian mother and a Belgian father.

"In the Mayan records the year 2012 is the last one to be mentioned. This has led people to draw the conclusion that this year will see the end of the world. While we respect the opinion held by many people, instead we are happy that these Mayas discovered cocoa nearly 3,000 years ago and the manufacturing of chocolate. At the beginning only highly ranked priests, monarchs and generals could ...
Xpat Opinion: Budapest Chinese Market Closing?
- 20 Sep 2012 1:03 AM
- shopping
2014 Update: It was closed down. Hungary is not the most multicultural nation on the planet. 95% Magyar, 2% Roma, and the rest of us. Around 100,000 Chinese live in Hungary, and Budapest has its own Chinatown, well, a sprawling China-shanty-town. It's a real oddity, and if not the most immediate of local attractions, it is a side of the city that's bafflingly interesting, in a grimy kind of way. ...

Xpat Opinion: Shoes On The Danube In Budapest

- getting around
If you listen to anyone talking about the Second World War, and more specifically, the systematic extermination of Europe's Jewish population, you will more-likely-than-not hear some variation on the phrase ‘Lest we forget.’ The poignant Jewish memorial on the Pest bank of the Danube is so discreet that you're unlikely to spot it. If you try to find it from the direction of the Parliament, you ...
Xpat Opinion: Best Flea Market In Budapest
- 11 Sep 2012 9:00 AM
- shopping
There are two major flea markets in Budapest – one is a fair car ride in the south of Budapest, a sprawling, ramshackle bazaar you may know is called Ecseri. The other is a good deal smaller, held in the city park at weekends. For my money, this is a more sensible, manageable alternative; it's perfectly possible to roll out of bed, onto public transport, through Városliget and right up to the ...
