To finish up our orientation, the International Students Community planned fun activities, beginning in the afternoon and continuing into the night. We started out with a bus tour of Budapest, receiving some more history of the city, and ideas for more places to go explore. Hero's square was awesome, and there is a huge park and museum complex around it. I will definitely go back there. We also toured inside Mátyás (Mathias) Church inside the castle walls, which had amazing stained glass windows, gilded alter, and (in restoration) towering spires intricately decorated with color tile and stone sculpture.
After the tour and returning to the University, we met our international mentors, local students who are here to help us adjust and show us the fun of the city. We broke up into little groups who went to various bars and restaurants for individual getting to know each other. The groups met up at a big international dorm where the mentors planned lots of fun activities and games.
It is fun meeting new people, and I'm looking forward to making some good international friends.
