Xpat Event Report: Helmut Newton Exhibition In Budapest
- 25 Apr 2013 9:01 AM
- community & culture
When you are going to a Helmut Newton exhibition, you expect to be surprised, shocked and challenged. Well, this is something I did not find when I went to “The Museum of Fine Arts”, where the three photographic series are exhibited, that are built on the summary works titled Helmut Newton’s “Illustrated”, “Private Property” and “Gun for Hire”. Although Helmut Newton was born in Berlin, it ...

Last Sunday morning I went along to the 'Palace of Arts' (MUPA) to check-out 'Hungarian folk dance for beginners' - and they were truly beginners, some even in their nappies! Once a month, the Children's Dance House is incorporated into the Sunday program of the Palace of Arts. Expert and charismatic dance instructor Farkas Zoltan ‘Batyu’ and his wife Toth Ildiko ‘Fecske’ showed children ...

When you get invited to a NAWA event you know you are in for something special, and this time it was no different. I always come away from these events with some useful nuggets of information, which broadens my horizons.

Xpat Report: NAWA Budapest Bingo & Easter Eggs Event
- 28 Mar 2013 8:00 AM
- community & culture
Bingo! Yes, that was the feeling. The NAWA invited me to one of their monthly bingo sessions, but it was bingo with a twist. They have come up with a novel idea called ‘adopt a granny’. This is where the children of Miklos School came together with the seniors to play bingo. But first there was the small matter of egg decoration, just in time for Easter. The children came from broken, difficult ...

I came along to TedxDanubia to get a glimpse of the world, but I got the universe. I learnt about Higgs Boson, wilful blindness, sewerage of the future, protons, learning to play the piano online, ageing, beat box (Star Trek is closer than we would think!) and this was delivered by some inspirational speakers.
Xpat Report: St. Patricks Day Parade In Budapest On 17 March
- 21 Mar 2013 7:50 AM
- community & culture
The snow had melted away, the sun was shining, Irish eyes were smiling, and Hungarian eyes and everyone else’s eyes were smiling together. A small piece of the emerald Isle had gathered to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day: colourful, warm and charming, which, in my opinion, sums up the nation.

When you get an invitation to the Italian Institute of Culture, you know you are in for a treat. The annual ‘All Nations Lions Club’ event did not disappoint. The blind pianist Tamás Érdi had played a selection of classics from Brahms, Bartok, Debussy, to Liszt. This was not just a fabulous evening in a fabulous building, but it had a purpose.
