Let’s see what happened at the Nece Festival:
* First of all, I found out that Lily, a lovely acquaintance I met at an AoH training was also attending the event.
* On the very first day, the third person to approach our market booth was a Norwegian woman who was completely up to date on the state of the civil sector in Hungary — and it turned out we even had several mutual acquaintances.
* One of the British masterclass speakers turned out to speak fluent Hungarian.
* We befriended a Polish couple who played an important role in their country’s political transition — and when we clinked glasses with soft drinks, they said “Egészségedre!” in Hungarian without hesitation.
* And after the event, where else would we have blown off steam than in a floating sauna in feon of the Opera house?
