Friends in Budapest!

Post new topic

Alora114

Hello everyone,

I am from New Jersey, America, but now I live in Budapest. I have been here for about 2-3 months now, but somehow I still have not managed to get to know many people or find friends.
Being alone in Budapest is really boring.

So please, if anyone is up for some drinks or anything fun, please let me know.

Hope to see you soon,
Alora

Hi Alora,

we can meet up :)

Hi Alora,

I moved to Budapest from Warsaw, Poland week ago, and I would love to meet some new people.
Please let me know when you have a time to meet for a coffee / drink, I don't know much city yet, so explore it will be fun as well.

Cheers,
Gosia.

Hi all
I also have moved to Budapest about 3 months ago, from Australia. I speak close to fluent Hungarian, so if anyone cares to catchup or needs some help drop me a line. I have also found some great night spots, and places to hear and view some great bands.
looking forward to hearing from you.
PS: I am a male and 55, but hope that doesnt scare anyone off.lol

Hi Alora (and everyone else),

I just moved to Budapest from Canada. I'm really wanting to meet people, too. Not knowing anyone does tend to get boring....
I would love to meet up for a drink/coffee/conversation and experience this city.

Hopefully we can do this soon!

Nicole

Hola guys! My name is Kristina and I also recently moved to Buda, and I work here. I am originally from Serbia, but spent last 6 years in Sent Louis, Missouri and I miss being overly social. I have to admit that people are nowhere near social here compared to US. Pls include me,if you will, for a coffee, brunch, a drink, etc... Looking forward to your answers...:)

Hi Alora,

Hi all again, someone older than me.............wow..hahaha
seriously would be great to catch up on day or night. I speak close to fluent Hungarian and of course born in Australia english, or Australian to some. :)
If anyone is interested in Deak Ference Ter, everyday there is a live band from 4 - 8 pm, and Saturday and Sunday 2 - 8 pm also. Great for a meet up, friendly atmosphere with food and drinks available. how about we all meet there?

Mark88

Hi Aries and Nico, (and everybody else who wants to meet)

The idea of Aries sounds great! Where do we exactly meet on Deak Ference Ter? It is quite big. And what time?
My phone number is: +36309632850. I propose tomorrow (saturday 19th) at 6pm for a drink. How does that sound? Just let me know where this live band is playing exactly :-)

Please confirm the appointment and see you guys tomorrow!
Cheers
Mark

Hi :)

We are planning to meet next Wed, last time it was 10-15 of us, it was really cool (right guys? :D)

Our friend Agi is looking for someting interesting to do in a city. One of the option is logic game "Sweet Escape" http://www. szabaduloszoba.hu/english
or ParaPark
http://www. parapark.hu/index.php?page=reservation&city=Budapest

all of this activities are for max 5-6 people, so if there are more of us, we will have to divide into groups.

I'm not in Budapest for the weekend, will be back on Sunday, but let me know who wants to go for sure, and then I contact Agi and we will organize some game (let's hope it will be still avaiable next week).

So see you next Wed ! 

P.S. Greg - feel free to create an event on facebook!

Nico_Buda

Mark88

nicole.81

yvaldo

Hi all,
for me and Agi maybe it'll be a little bit problematic to join you on Wednesday. For both of us the first week of November would be better. Anyway I'll keep you updated.
Buon fine settimana 
Luca

gosiajanecka

Hi guys,

I confirmed with Agi, that she cannot join this week, so we can postpone "sweet excape" game for next week.
Anyway, this Wed we can meet as well if anyone wants - any interesting place / event you know about? (Mark, sorry to disappoint you, but they don't show any silent movie this week :/ )

Let me know!

And of course the the Sopranos :D

Of course Hi to others!
Do you guys know a place where many Americans used to go in Budapest?

Cheers,
Accsi

Alora114

I haven't found many Americans here. Only a few here and there traveling. But i'd love to meet more. It's like having a little piece of home with me. We should organize a meet up this weekend for everyone to meet :) everyone is invited. Does anyone know of a good pub or club to meet at Saturday night?

jstacksx

Hi Alora, I moved here from New York last month for work and am also looking for new people to hang out with here in Budapest!

Would love to meet up for a drink this weekend.
