What's a good/OK salary for living in Budapest? by Kenyo00
Hello! I have a job offer with a large multinational telco company in Budapest, but being an expat and my wife having never worked here (that's why she left Hungary in the first place), I'm not sure what a good salary range is for an ...
As "good enough" is always relative, I guess it is up to native US people to compare US living standards to those here, but I may point out that there have been many such questions in this forum, I also replied extensively to some around ... Read More

I think I can totally agree with everything Marilyn Tassy says. Some info on local salaries which turned into thoughts on how it effects our society: Someone wrote, USD 2k net were around a "young professional salary" - I m sorry but ... Read More

First, nice that you move here and strengthen the "international feel" of the countri! .-) " Debrecen for a few months short term and start to look for a house right off." I do allow myself to make some personal comments...:) ... Read More

Don't make the mistake of thinking it's cheaper here - it's generally not cheaper than other countries in Europe. Easier countries might be the UK, Ireland, Netherlands, Malta, Cyprus - all of these speak English. Malta and Cyprus also ... Read More

thanks, but I have done so, already :) but the forum is read by different people - some of whom may "know" me anyway. The above link is not clickable, so here is it ... Read More

For most Europeans, Hungarian is probably more difficult than Russian, apart from the script. Russian is an indoeuropean language, e.g. you have the classic preposition+case system well known from latin (English has lost most cases, but still has ... Read More

As I feel that my last post on the elections has awaken some interest, I feel that it is my duty to point out how those who feel compelled, can support the (re-)westernisation of Hungarian society. If you feel that a more democratic "Open ...
You are writing down interesting thoughts, and you being foreign-raised makes them more unique. But for me, it somehow does not seem to refer to hungary (but I am tired, too). I do not see it the way "Hungary is not in the west, but it must be ... Read More
