Gypsy event

Day of Stefánia in Hungary. Its a Latin name means: floral tribute
Best of www.budapestdailyphoto.com

It was luck to catch this Gypsy event in the Vajdahunyad vára in Budapest. They arrived with that large “limo” and with a lot of other cars and they fullfilled the yard of the castle immediately. It didn’t seem to be like a wedding (I haven’t seen any bride then) but the way they got together and started to sing was impressive. See the event on video here.

I have collected the proverbs you gave me here. Thank you so much!! I hope to have a large collection in time to come..so pls feel free to share with me the proverbs of your country.

For today the Hungarian one:

Look at the mother and marry the daughter!

  1. without reading the title, i thought IT IS the mafia! very stylish event!
    the guy can be mistaken for ogli g! btw, i like his song high roller

    wise proverb, i’ll try to look for some

  2. A wedding–for real? Do they object to the word, “gypsy?” I had a musician visit my classroom once who explained that they prefer to be called “Roma.” but I’m not sure if that’s worldwide.

  3. Olivier, you read my mind!

    I was going to say that the big guy up front looked like the “Godfather”!

    How do you know that they are gypsies? Can you tell us more about gypsies?

  4. We have a very similar Bulgarian proverb.

    That’s why girls time the introduction of boyfriends to their mothers very carefully… ;) cheers!

  5. thank you for your comments.:) Maybe they really looked like being in a movie…in the Godfather…but they are not. It was a real event with gypsys.
    I promise I will write more about it…and I will collect the proverbs you shared with me to my site. Nowdays I am very busy but soon I am comming back:)
