Tóalmás is a little town of 3000, about 50 kilometers (35 miles) from the capital of Hungary, Budapest. Most people commute to Budapest to work, and that often takes 4+ hours for them daily. There is a thermal bath in town with a small public swimming pool, and, of course, the famous Andrassy castle, where Word of Life has been located since 1989.
The town is friendly and quiet. Since there are not too many jobs around here, the population is aging. There are a lot of nice homes where retired couples or widows live. Around the thermal bath there are zillions of little weekend homes (literally little, some of them are less than 400 square feet), the population almost doubles each summer, when many move out of Budapest to spend some time here.
We rent a typical house that was built in the 70-s. It has 3 bedrooms, and a large yard with grass and fruit trees. The girls really enjoy it.
