Vienna — Blog — But Where Will You Live?

Day to Day Life

Sometimes it seems as though people think our life is a vacation 24-7. If you aren’t at “home” then you must be “vacation.” Vacation, to me, means: eating out, hotels, putting off work. Or put another way, putting real life on hold—shedding the responsibilities of day to day life. Often when I talk to friends and family, they want to know how “vacation” is going. I struggle to answer that question because so much of my day to day is the same as it is no matter where I am—and I haven’t really shed all of my responsibilities.

Visitor in Vienna

So, when we saw fare sales from a bunch of US cities to Vienna for $300-400, we put the word out to a few people. My mom jumped at the chance to come visit for a week 😀 This is one of the benefits of staying in one city for 7 weeks in an airbnb. We have an extra bedroom and plenty of space and an opportunity to scope out the fun stuff!

Getting Settled in Vienna

Now that the Google home is set up, it's starting to feel like “home.” Our apartment here is a two bedroom around 70m2 with a small balcony. Way more space than we really need for the two of us, but feels comfy!

We are only about 2 blocks from the “new Danube.”
