Dear friends and former colleagues,

Please disregard all other email addresses shown on this message board. This one is IT:

A brief synopsis of my PC service and beyond: I served in Hungary from 1991-94, continued to live there till 1997, then came back to the US for two (uneventful) years. In 1999 I moved back to Hungary and lived and worked there as an ESL teacher for three eventful years. Since July 2002 I'm back in here in the USA - it was carefully planned, and it feels great!

Any future reunions planned for Hungary?

By Chris Winters on Thursday, July 24, 2003 - 7:54 pm: Edit Post

Hi folks
This is the most recent info for us (Chris & Annamari Winters).
We left Hungary in 1999, moved to Seattle where we still live. Chris works as a reporter for the King County Journal newspaper in Bellevue, Annamari finished an M.Ed. in TESOL and now teaches English to more freshly-arrived immigrants at Shoreline Community College. Contact us at winterscsa at earthlink dot net.
A H8 reunion is planned for 2005. More details later.

I was in Hunagry III. the first group of environmental volunteers. I served from '92 - 94, in Miskolc, and then in Pecs.

I stayed in Hungary until January of 2000, and got married over there. First working for the Hungarian Academy of Sciences and then starting a development consulting firm INDEV BT.

I ran an environmental technology incubator in California up until the dot.com crash sunk the Bay Area economy. Now I am based out of NY and consulting again. Living in New Jersey with the Hungarian wife, Agi (go figure) and our two kids.
