FARSANG IN ÁGFALVA WITH HANA
"My name is Hana. I went to Farsang in Ágfalva and I had an amazing time. My friend who is originally from Ágfalva invited me to go with her and described it as a fun activity that happens every year and is attended by locals of the village. I dressed up in a costume and joined her. I was warmly welcomed by all the locals there. They were curious but also very happy that a foreigner had come to celebrate with them. I was trying my Hungarian language skills, as I was trying my best to communicate with the local people. It was an amazing experience and something I have not participated in before. I had a chance to eat some Hungarian food, and listen to Hungarian music as well. Since it was a smaller, more intimate event I really got to know the Hungarian culture more and take part in activities first hand."
