The complex is being built by Silver Stone Enterprises. The next phase of buildings will be ready for occupancy in the fall of 2025, with the last phase being completed in the spring of 2027. Each phase will have four of the 12 buildings completed. The first phase of building is scheduled to begin in the spring of 2023, with the first four buildings being complete by the spring of 2024. The apartment buildings will be three-story buildings (above-ground) and will include basement storage areas. The new 432-unit complex is slated to be built on the currently empty lot along Second Avenue North just east of 38th Street. Luckily, my dad was there to take it home but I was left with two pairs of pants, a few sweaters, and some shirts.GREAT FALLS - A new apartment complex is being planned in Great Falls. I only had a trunk to put my stuff in and I was stuck at the airport trying to get rid of 30lbs of stuff. Final comments or suggestions for future participants:ĭo not use a trunk as a suitcase.

I went at it with an open mind and when I learned how to say, “I’m learning Hungarian, I speak English, can you help me?” people were much more forgiving. It was tough at first because the signs are all in Hungarian and they have an expanded alphabet compared to English. I also decided to take a language class throughout the semester just so I would be able to get by. I don’t speak Hungarian but I went two weeks early for a language course that was offered through the program. I was told that everyone in Budapest speaks English and although many people do know some English, it could be hard to get by sometimes. The most challenging aspect was definitely the language barrier.
The most challenging aspects of your experience: Thermal baths, cave spelunking (see photo!), great professors, generally an inexpensive city to live in, castles and history from the Magyars to the Romans, and lots of dancing! Oh and of course all of the thermal baths! Highlights of the program: It was fun exploring all the great coffee shops that turn into bars in the evenings. I spent the other weekends exploring Budapest and all it has to offer. I went to Slovakia (twice), Romania, Croatia, all around Hungary (they have great wine tasting in Eger) and Copenhagen. And the younger generations know more English so it made becoming friends much easier! I also travelled almost every other weekend to places I wouldn’t have gone to if I wasn’t in the area. I ended up going to festivals and restaurants with them. It was really fun getting to know what young Hungarians do and where they like to eat. I began volunteering with a local animal rights group and I met young Hungarians through that. We had a shared bath, toilet, and kitchen and each had our own bedroom. We chose to live together because we knew we had similar living styles.
I lived in an apartment with one other Scripps student. What courses did you enroll in while abroad? Also, there aren’t many English-taught math-based study abroad programs to choose from. Why did you choose Hungary?īudapest is home to a rich mathematics history and I thought it would be incredible to go somewhere I didn’t even really know where it was on a map and to immerse myself in mathematics. Why not study abroad? It’s better than a vacation because you get to immerse yourself in the location and really get to find your favorite grocery store, coffee shop, music venue, you name it.
