On some rainy days my parents used to entertain us by slide show tales .I remember how much I was fascinated by the wonderful colors of those projected pictures .That was the era of the black and white TV .Besides wherever I looked - I saw beautiful mountains. In the centre of the town there was a lake - with an old water-mill. The underground caves were wonderful -and on its lake we were rowing with my father. I saw colors there- shades of blue that I have never seen anywhere else. I was surrounded by beauty and magic a great forest near us, a stream behind the blocks, a famous lake -Balaton- just a stone s throw from there. I had to leave my paradise when I was eight In our new home there were no mountains - no streams , no forest .,no underground caves with lakes . I felt very much lost- I became a dreamy child who escapes to her fantasy from the reality. I read a lot - and soon I started to write my own stories and drawing my own pictures. Many people had encouraged me- when it was about writing -but no praises for my drawings. As a result I wrote lots of articles read by millions of people - but I gave up painting for some fifteen years I did not draw or paint anything. When I started again it was for my interest in psychology - by the wish to understand better my inner self. It gave me so much joy that art became part of my daily routine. I love very much the Art- Nouveau style - and the famous Zsolnay - china designer family. I am also touched by another Hungarian artist Csontvary - and his painted visions. I have been living in Qatar for some five years now following my husband here .

Unique spectacle of the Cave Lake, located in the heart of my hometown , Tapolca is natural rarity . it was in 1902, that it was discovered during drilling a well . It is a three storey cave system . The lower levers are covered by water and there is a section of around 300 meters where you can row around and admire the clean water giving different look at different depth ...

It was more than twenty years ago that Alma Wad spent her summer holiday in Poland . It was a nice time in Zakopane area - they were hiking there with her brother . Going up the Giewont was just a sudden idea and she was not well prepared for the hike . Luckily there was a group of young Poles who noticed that and they shared everything with her what they could . Experience , water , sandwiches . Thus it was emotionally a great experience . Finding herself suddenly surrounded by people who care about her. She is still very grateful for them ...

There is a city in South Hungary called Pecs . It is ancient place with vibrant atmosphere - full of cultural events intellectuals ,artists and students. A city with Mediterranean touch . A city in walking distance from hills and forests . No wonder that they won the title of being Europe's cultural capital in 2010 .

Alma Wad started to learn languages at the age of 11 .It was Russian .There was no choice .She lived in a country under Soviet occupation .After all she loved it .Later at secondary school she was allowed to take up one more foreign language .She opted for French then .Then in her twenties she needed to learn English to get better salary .Then there was another reason as well ..The guy who later married her did not speak much Hungarian .:)
