1918
Meets Erzsebet Salomon

early 1920s
Tries farming and beekeeping
He leaves the exchange to try agricultural work and beekeeping, but the venture is brief given the political turmoil that accompanies the revolution and the coming of communism. Back at the exchange he decides to emigrate to study at one of France’s photographic schools, but his mother dissuades him, and he does not leave for several years.
