“The World Is A Garden In My Heart” was the theme of a drawing competition which took place in Hungary at the beginning of the year.

180 schools participated, with more than 1,400 works entered in the two categories, single and team work. They were exhibited recently in Gyöngyös and Győr and so sometimes our ceremonies also included awarding prizes to the winners.

Running late, we passed through the Baltazár Rezső square in a hurry.

But the majorettes were waiting for us!

Do you know what laska, mir and radost mean? Maybe the runners and smilers from Rákóczi Ferenc School still remember.

They surely remember this few seconds of sharing.

Nagykálló was magnificent, providing a sunny afternoon, some red caps and a fountain along the way…

... with many, many faces.

We must say, our Hungarian team really made us fly along the road and from meeting to meeting.

And they presented us with different aspects of the country.
