After an amazing week touring through England, we left for Vienna. We arrived at night, and by some stroke of luck managed to mumble the correct words in a very rusty German to the bus driver, and got a ride from the airport to the Westbahnhof, right by my grandmother, Oma’s, house. We spent the next few days touring the inner-stadt (city center), hanging out with Oma, and I had an interview for a position as an English teacher, at a small private English center. After a few days, and a few class observations, I got the job! Great!
Vienna is a beautiful city. The building are all very magnificent, old and rich with history. Even outside the center of the city you will find plenty of buildings that you can’t help but stare at in awe. The Schönbrunn, a castle further away from the center, is an absolutely fabulous area to spend an afternoon walking around. There are gigantic gardens, a huge hill overlooking the city, countless statues, and an epic statues scene of Neptune and the Tritons overlooking a fountain. The whole area is so ornate and well manicured, you can’t not think you are back in time, and walking around as if you were from the 17th century.
We are absolutely loving it here, and as things calm down, expect more blogs especially about some very important thing I need to catch up on!
