"B-B" Budapest - Brisbane

We can realise some changes in everybody's life. The same happened in my life, when I had to go to move from my hometown to the Hungarian capital. The fact that I can live there has made me glad. Although I have been living in Brisbane for 7 months, I miss our exciting capital city, Budapest.


The population of Brisbane and Budapest are almost the same.Nevertheless, it seems to me that Brisbane is more populated than Budapest. Firstly, the biggest difference is between the buildings. In general, a lot of Hungarian bulidings have built at the end of the 19th and the 20th century and the most of them have not been renovated since then, but the buildings of Brisbane which could be built just at the end of the last century. Secondly, we can see some differences between the transportation of the two cities. The strangest vehicle for an Australian is the tram, because probably people use this solely or mostly in Europe, but I am not sure. We have two types of tram, so if you visit Hungary, you can travel by them.



on the other hand, if I compare Budapest with Brisbane we can see some similarities between the two cities. The most obvious similarity is the river which runs through the city, in Hungary the Danube river, in Australia the Brisbane river. Generally speaking, Australia is visited by a lot of foreigners and we can say the same for Hungary and Budapest too, especially Indians come to our universities to study medicine. However, I meet more foreigners here than in my country.



So, if you want to study medicine or travel by tram, come to our country and visit the Hungarian capital, Budapest.
