Presentation :
Presentation : I am a bilingual (Hungarian/English) translator specialising in politics, cultural and social policy. I lived in Budapest for more than a decade from 1991 to 2004 and saw the changes taking place there, but am also aware of the difficulties that the new member countries face. I hold an Art History degree from Manchester University and an MA in Area Studies from the School of Slavonic and East European Studies, London. Over 2005 I have done a variety of work including tax returns, Gallup polls and questionnaires for the EU.
