British Embassy Budapest @ Sziget 2010 In Budapest

"Kasabian and Muse were phenomenal. The action continues into the small hours, but I’m heading home now. I think my children are still here! But I am happy that Sziget is about as safe as anywhere is for them to be.
Aside from the amazing music, Sziget has once again been a great opportunity to meet people - from government, politics, the arts, the media, diplomacy, you name it. And it’s been a reminder of how rich civil society is in Hungary these days. There are so many worthwhile organisations, trying to make a difference, whose work needs to be celebrated. Which is one of the things Sziget achieves.
That’s all from me this year. It’s been a fantastic event again. Thanks to my colleague Helga for processing and uploading this blog. And goodbye, Sziget 2010. Viszontlatasra!
