Hungarian Living Podcast — Discover, celebrate, and share your Hungarian heritage! Episode 120 My mom’s birthday is August 27th and, so each time this time of year comes around, I think about her even more than normal because, the truth is  I still  think about her a lot. She was an amazing person so I thought I would expand a bit on her story today on the podcast. I’ve been gathering new-to-me bits and pieces of her story over the last several years as I was preparing to submit a chapter for book two of Hungarian Roots and American Dreams. And, naturally, I have so many questions that will probably remain unanswered […]Want to go deeper?

Mark your calendars for June 2-12, 2027 where we will explore wine country and heritage traditions! Spirit of Hungary Stay tuned for all the details! We love Hungary! And we love visiting all the areas of Hungary – from the tiny villages to the big cities although, truth be told, I have a stronger pull to the countryside. I lived in a small town in Nebraska and, for the most part, I loved it. But I think I am drawn to smaller towns because it’s in my blood. It’s where my […]Want to go deeper?

Hungarian Living Podcast — Discover, celebrate, and share your Hungarian heritage! Episode 116 Hey, it’s Liz, and today we are going to talk about Michael Kováts – a Hungarian founding father of the US Cavalry. As a commemoration to him, the Hungary Foundation is sponsoring a coloring contest for kids – with an upcoming deadline of September 1, 2026 – and the prize is a round trip ticket from Philadelphia to Budapest, Hungary. So, let’s learn all about this guy – and, depending on their ages, you can even get your kids, grandkids, nieces and nephews involved!

Hungarian Living Podcast — Discover, celebrate, and share your Hungarian heritage! Episode 115: Our Hungarian Language Classes I want to tell you something honest — learning Hungarian as an adult has humbled me more than almost anything else I’ve taken on. This is a language that doesn’t share roots with English, or French, or Spanish — it just does its own beautiful, complicated thing. And yet, every single word I learn feels like I’m unlocking a little more of my own story, a little more of what my great-grandparents carried with them when they left their villages behind. One thing I have learned is that it matters what I tell myself about […]Want to go deeper?

Hungarian Living Podcast — Discover, celebrate, and share your Hungarian heritage! Episode 114: Heritage Connections Monthly Hello again, my friends!

Hungarian Living Podcast — Discover, celebrate, and share your Hungarian heritage! This is episode 113 Hello, my friends! It has been a while since you’ve heard my voice on here, and I want you to know, it wasn’t for lack of missing you. First, it’s been a season of travel for us. We were at the Hungarian Festival in McLean, Virginia back in April. We were also honored to attend the America250 Gala at the Library of Congress in Washington, DC. And we closed off that trip with a visit to the Consulate. Then we were with our amazing tour group in Hungary for about two weeks. We’ve been out there, in […]Want to go deeper?

Hungarian Living Podcast — Discover, celebrate, and share your Hungarian heritage! Hi, it’s Liz. This episode is special to me. It’s a Christmas story my mom, Elizabeth Szabo, wrote – and I wanted to bring it back during the holidays because this is the time of year when we think about family and traditions. My mom wasn’t perfect. But she understood something important: you don’t have to be perfect to create meaningful traditions. You don’t have to do it all, and you don’t have to do it flawlessly. You just need to make the effort to connect. She started Magyar Marketing back in 1988 because she saw that it was getting […]Want to go deeper?

Hungarian Living Podcast — Discover, celebrate, and share your Hungarian heritage! Hello there, it’s Liz. And welcome back to The Hungarian Living Podcast. It’s officially Advent and that means we are headed into the Christmas season, and I wanted to bring back one of my favorite episodes about a tradition that’s really special to me – Mikulás, or St. Nicholas Day, which is December 6th. For kids growing up in Hungary as well as other European countries, the evening of December 5th is always exciting. I remember when we were living in Budapest in 1973. I was 8 years old and It’s my first memory of Mikulas nap. I shined my […]Want to go deeper?

Hungarian Living Podcast — Discover, celebrate, and share your Hungarian heritage! Episode 110 Hello friends, and welcome back to The Hungarian Living Podcast! I’m Liz, and today we’re talking about something that’s very close to my heart – the tradition of name days. And if you are listening to this episode on November 19th then you are hearing it on the name day for Elizabeth or Erzsébet, as celebrated in Hungary! Before we dive in, I want to share a memory with you. For years after I moved away from home, my phone would ring on November 19th. I’d pick up, and there would be my mom’s voice: “Boldog névnapot, Liz!” […]Want to go deeper?
