It was a great experience, being part of this big family. I really enjoyed this period of time here and want to say thank you to Anett & Luca for helping me get through any difficulties in Budapest. Thanks to Kriszta and Mike too, as they made my English much better than it was before. Now I can continue my studies at the university, but I’ll always remember BIC.
