It has everythink I needed friendly people and developed infrastructure which offers an easy access to big cities.
 

What was the best in those two years that you have spent is Sopron/Hungary?
A lot of amazing things happened due to the fact that we have been extremely lucky to savour first semester of our studies before Covid by fully enjoying all the benefits. I found inspiration in traveling in European Union and around Hungary.

Overcoming the language barrier with locals. Bordering with Austria also means than majority of Sopron population speak German rather than English.
