Hello all,

I'm an American student currently living in Budapest, Hungary for the next five months. I'm trying to figure out the best way for me to get money into the Hungarian bank account I have opened. I've looked into paypal as a way for my parents to transfer money into my foreign bank account. Paypals fees seem low (10 dollars fee for depositing 2000 dollars). Does anyone know if the foreign banks charge even money to have this USD money deposited into my account from paypal. I'm not sure if any of you have any experience with this, but if anyone is in or has been in the same situation any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
