It’s been over a week here. And it’s been busy!
I will spare you all the details of the mundane stuff, but to be short: we have obtained a health insurance, set up a bank account, cable TV and Internet, cell phone numbers, signed a lease on an apartment and have done a lot of shopping for the basic items.
We are still working on my ID, bus passes, Dan’s residency card and few more purchases for our place.
I have to admit one thing: everyone has been helpful, pleasant to work with and not at all the grumpy bureaucrat I was expecting. What a pleasant surprise.
On a sad note, my dad has been in the hospital the whole time I have been here, but hopefully will go home tomorrow.
That’s all for now, much more soon!

Thanks Julie.
We are both thrilled! He is feeling better, went home yesterday, and hopefully will improve.
Best of luck to you both during those last weeks in Hungary! I’ll be thinking of you!
