I am really sorry for not updating on here regularly, but my Internet access has been questionable as of late and teaching is really, really busy! I am also in the middle of organising and finalising plans for the annual school talent show, which is appropriately named Refi's Got Talent!
Last Saturday there was a fundraiser in the town centre of Sarospatak. It was for a young boy who lives in a nearby village. He suffers from leukemia and he loves race cars, so of course the fundraiser was centered around race cars and motorbikes. I have to say it wasn't so good for the environment and my mother had told me to get out of the house and go for some "fresh air!" However, it was all for a good cause. There were many different stalls offering wine and people were singing, playing instruments and entertaining the crowd. One thing that was really interesting were the people dressed up like warriors and being "attacked" by the men on motorbikes. When the warriors were charging towards them, the motorcyclists were revving up their engines. It truly was an unusual, but hilarious sight to see. See the picture below and you'll know what I mean.
I will be coming home for Christmas in a few weeks, I fly to Aberdeen from Budapest on the 20th of December and will be returning to Hungary on the 3rd of January. So keep those dates free if you want to catch up! I will write a blog post about Refi's Got Talent soon, it is happening in two weeks time.
Until next time,

We would love to have you come to Mumbai with your friends to work with us and then go for sight seeing in India places such as Taj Mahel one of the seven wonders of the world. I am sure you will have a life changing experience. I hope you are enjoying your Hungary trip. Looking forward to hear from you very soon. In the past we have had several young people coming to Mumbai to work with us through Oasis and Interserve Organisations. I hope you know them very well.
