6. Regarding money. Money will be needed to purchase souvenirs and small things. Children will be fully supported for the duration of the project, so money may be needed for personal use only. It is recommended to provide some money in euro (for the Hungarian part of the project). The official currency of the Republic of Hungary is euro. The project coordinators will assist kids in exchanging currency for local money, however, remember that the coordinators and employees of the project do not have the right to take valuable things and money from children for safe keeping. Please keep this in mind.

7. Regarding cell phones. It is strongly recommended to research the tariffs of your cell phone operators before you leave. All operators have unlimited call packages. For our part, we would like to draw your attention that the organizers do not provide mobile services to the project participants. However, there is a phone number, which will be listed on the website, for emergency calls. Also, free WI-FI is provided in the hotel.

For any questions at any time of day or night you may call +7 985 4270777. This is the phone number of the project coordinator, Pavel Pronin.
