Email
One of the best ways to keep in touch while travelling is to sign up for a free internet email address that can be accessed from anywhere, for example YahooMail or Hotmail - accessible through www.yahoo.com and www.hotmail.com . Once you've set up an account, you can use these sites to pick up and send mail from any internet cafe, or hotel with internet access. There are now many internet cafes in Budapest, but outside the capital they are still fairly scarce, even in the larger centres of population. If you can't locate an internet cafe, seek out a Matav shop, as they usually have at least a couple of terminals. Many of the more upmarket hotels have an ISDN line. Connections vary, but generally speaking are pretty slow, although prices are reasonable: expect to pay around 500Ft for an hour online.
