My name is Zsofi (I pronounce it “Sophie,” but you will learn how it is actually said once you get to Hungary) Budai, and I’m working with CEVP this year as the European Liaison. (You’ll soon find out that I’m actually Zsofi #2, as Zsofi #1 – introduced by Janelle in an earlier post – has been with LE longer than I have.) Since you have all looked at the website and read the Hungary and Slovakia country guides/addenda, I know that you are all familiar with my name and background.
I could use this entry to tell you a bit about myself, but I don’t want to bore you with all of the useless details…You’ll definitely have a chance to get to know me during mid-point break in Komarno (unfortunately, for the first time in four years, I won’t be able to make it to orientation). Suffice it to say that I was born in Hungary, grew up in Minnesota, and just graduated from Georgetown University. I volunteered with LE in 2004 and 2005; I returned last year as the European Liaison and continue to have that position. That’s just how much I love LE!
I’ll post periodically on this blog to answer questions and give advice. I’d be more that happy to answer questions by e-mail as well – don’t bother writing to my LE address since it doesn’t work anymore; contact me at zb (at) georgetown (dot) edu. I know Hungary and Slovakia inside and out!
Make sure to read this blog as well as the country guides/addenda! They will answer most of the questions that you have.
And now, a picture of me, in one of my favorite cities (Bratislava) engaged in one of my favorite activities (self-explanatory):
