    Once while I was a student in college in Budapest, I traveled with a foreign student to class. He saw the trams and suddenly said:
    "Wow! Hungary must be very rich to bring back the retro-trams!" I looked away and said: "Sure.. that´s what happened.." :D

    Her pronunciation (villamos, Budapest, Kispest, madártej... etc.) is too perfect to be a non Hungarian.

    I'm a black student in Gödölló, Hungary.. The transportation is really nice, and I heard they've been through alot as a country, they're really a strong country, the language is a big barrier for me although I take Hungarian classes... it's been a nice experience since I came here, they're nice people unlike what I heard before I came here... But I really thought I'll have friends from Hungary but it just difficult cos of the language. I hope I make hungarian friends soon.

I can teach you hungarian and we could practice a bit of German. Interested? (szilimaria@gmail.com). By the way I am living in London now, but my home town is Kaposvár close to Zalaegerszeg. I have been once, and I loved Zegerszeg, it is a nice city. Have a great day.

    I've been to Hungary 7 times and love it there, their educational system has switched from German to English as a second language so more and more of the youth there can converse in English especially in Budapest so if your planning a trip to Europe I would definitely recommend putting Budapest on your itinerary, it has maintained it's old world charm. Thanks for the upload it brought back so many good memories.

    I'll join the team of Hungarians complimenting on her presentation style and careful and respectful description of her experiences. I just want to say a big thank you for this video, it represents a cultural awareness that I feel is lacking in general. Also, if only you'd know how relatable the situation was with getting lost and dehydrated and having to ask for water from an elderly couple... that's just what me and my friends end up doing when we need a little getaway in the countryside :D

    For Americans its weird that Europeans are hung up on what happened 100years ago, because for Americans saying 200 years ago, was a long time and is considered history. For us Europeans saying 100-200 years ago, its like talking about last year. For us it's not a long time, its within reach, for we have been here for 1000s of years. Its really interesting to see their point of view.

    I'm Hungarian, and I really enjoyed watching this video, hearing these things made me feel proud and I'm glad to have this country as my home. On the other hand, the key sentence was this: "you can still feel the weight the communism had on this country". We managed to get rid of it as a form of government, but it had a huge impact on us. That's the sad reality, yes. But thank God, now we have democracy and we are working on it to left behind its aftermathes.

      Hey :) as shocking to me when I was reading your comment and several others.... I can see Hungarians actually can speak English 😮!!!! Which is very surprising for me because most (like 90 per cent of Hungarians couldn't understand what was I saying even young people), I'm a student here in Hungary and I truly appreciate what she was saying in the video and yes it's very new and interesting for all people outside Hungary.... But unfortunately it's very hard to get Hungarian friends or even talk to them!!!! Can you explain why?!🙁 ...... It's like a barrier that can't let me interact and understand Hungarians 😔!
