As I listen to everyone talk about their experience in Budapest or anytime I upload images to the website, I get a feeling of jealousy. Even though I had a fantastic time when I was traveling the country, I can't even imagine what it was like for my classmates to travel across the ocean and be able to be emerged in a entirely different culture.
From what I can tell from images and stories, the culture looks amazing. Being a photojournalist, my personal goal is to travel the world, meet people and be immersed in a different culture. Before this trip I would have never thought about Hungary being a destination that would be on top of my list, but now it's at least in my Top 5- under New Zealand and Africa.
The trip looked amazing. The only complaint I could imagine from receiving these pictures was that I will more people would have took more than 'snapshots' and tried to produce fantastic, National Geographic worthy photos. But we can't have it all.
I hope to travel to Budapest in the future and see what all the fuss is about. I want to get my own view of it all.
I will travel to South Bend possibly this upcoming weekend and have been in contact with Marty Weber to take photos of her life and what it was like to be raised in America but with heavy Hungarian influence. Also I will visit Mrs. Weakland on Thursday to take a peek into her life.
