My birthplace & the place where I feel at home ! - Vienna

Vienna is my birthplace and I spent 14 years here attending a boarding school, later the hotel managment school ...

Vienna is a MUST - so many things to see - and so I made this page with a big variety of things that might be interesting for a tourist

Don't miss my travelogue " What a Loo " - about a place, where you may powder your nose in the apropriate way, you will expect in the world's centre of classical music ;-))

Stephansdom - St.Stephens Cathedral

Royal Carriages of the Austrian Emperors are shown in Schloss Schoenbrunn

Pros and Cons

Pros:lots of them
Cons:I almost cannot think of any :-))
In a nutshell:also globetrotts need a place where they feel at home !!

Last visit to Vienna: Dec 2013

  Hi Irene, lots of People here have never heared about or cared about Kuglmugl, BUT I remember the time when I was a child and saw the Kuglmugl-stamps as very rare austrian stamps in a stamp-catalogue.
