Actually in Vienna public transport isn't that expensive compared to other European capitals. The annual ticket costs 365 € so for 1 € a day you can use all the trams, buses and metro lines. But I agree that the cost of housing has risen a lot in the last 10 years.
This video is aimed at people who are considering moving to Austria. Some of those people might wrongly assume that everyone there speaks English. Hope this helps answer your question.
It is not true that you cannot find a pharmacy open in Vienna at nighttime. In fact in every district in Vienna there are pharmacies that stay open late every night. You can get information which tells you exactly which pharmacy will be open on which night, as the local pharmacies operate a rota system between themselves so that customers can still get their medication after all the general shops have closed for the night. .
I’ve lived in the States, Japan and Austria for many years in each place and Austria is absolutely the best of them all. Period! My German is no good, but I manage. Average restaurant meal is more like 12 eur in Vienna. Winters are cold and dark but that makes you appreciate the beautiful springs that much more. Lovely country!
Sorry but these points are almost all not true. We have plenty of Restaurants with lower prices. The travelsystem is very cheap and you get low prices for Students. Imagine you live in a Country where people speak there own language omg! ;) we have many old people in Austria, they never had to learn englisch, or simply don't want to speak it. There are many farmacie stores open at night, we call this Notfallapotheke, you can get medication at night aswell... and it is good that you need to go to a doctor for most of the medications, instead of getting any drug you want. It is also a good thing to not open stores at night, because we are not so many people and it would be very expansive to open up all night and sunday is the day of the Lord and we are a Christian Religion based culture. Also imagine you have to study properly to really learn something ... cmon this is like the reason to study... it is not like in russia where you can buy almost everything, beginning with the driving license. Speaking of russia... it is way colder in russia lol, but yeah this one is kinda true. If you ask me, you probably are to young and it wasn't the right time for your journey
KY SA I said how I felt there, my experience ☺️ and it’s not about young or old! For me, as a student from Russia, it was expensive :) Also, many students from other countries told me the same! Have a nice day 👌🏾😌
i will tell more, almost all europe don`t speak english i was working in czech republick i was in polland i was in hungery nower in this are wery hard to found some thats speak it, and only in polland i saw 24h stores, and thank you for telling this because i`m after all of whis is ower whant to whent for work in austria
@@DariStep Did you really say, a meal would be about 30€? I listened and I heard just that. May be, u meant 13€? You should know that in Vienna and most of the other cities, where universities are, there is something, called "Mensa". That are restaurants for students, where meals are very cheap (5-7€), and there are a lot of cheap restaurants nearby the universities. I don't know the situation in Krems, but Krems is situated in a very touristic region, so the prices might be higher there. Concerning the weather: yes, there is a lot of rain, sometimes, specially when you are in the mountains, but it depends really on where you are living. In Vienna there's not so much rain (except this year). The last years Austria had problems because of heat and drought in the summer. So, thanks god, we have more rain this season. But in winter it can get cold. The last years it has been pretty mild in winter, compared to 30, 40 years ago. And in summer it gets normally pretty hot. As posted above, you can get medicine also at night, because pharmacies have an emergency system running. And shopping on Sunday: you're right, there are very few shops open on sundays. They're mostly at train stations and only in bigger cities. If you really need something on sunday you got to shops as gas stations. They are small but you can get something for your kitchen there. So, at last: yes, studying in Austria is not easy, but also it depends on, what you're studying. In Austria the standards of the educational system is high, but nothing compared with systems like in Korea or Japan, Singapour. We want to get highly qualified persons coming out of our universities ;-)
Some pharmacies are kind of „open“ at night! Someone is there and you can go there in an emergency! But it is not encouraged to go there, if you can wait until the morning
yes, we´re expensive, but you can still easily find good restaurants in my country where you dine a lot cheaper than you said, let´s say half of it, great quality the same. if you´re able to google, you can find open pharmacies 24/7, there´s always a few on emergency. same goes for shopping. you´ll always find a shop if you really really need something. all 24/7 gasoline stations are supermarkets, too. for us, it is a luxury when shops are closed on sundays and holidays, because permanent shopping is an awful bondage in our western culture. as for the language: actually, almost everybody here in austria speaks english, but that said: why should they in the first place?
Gerald Herrmann look, I just said things that I found difficult as an international student from Russia 🙌🏾🙈I shared MY experience) I could not find in the internet open pharmacies. And I said about shops and English speaking people what was inconvenient for me (as to international student) In the end I paid attention to the fact that these things didn’t destroy my opinion about Austria and pointed out how much I love your country 🙏🏾♥️ Peace ✌🏾
@@DariStep Sorry, but you can't blame anybody else but yourself for not being informed about the possibilities you have to get meds or food on weekends. Normally, anybody would try to find informations on that in the internet. If you had asked anybody living here they would have given you informations on that as well. So, I have to say, your video only shows that you didn't do your job so well to inform yourself about things concerned.
Autrians don't have to understand you nor do they have to know english. You had to be prepared to understand german so you could communicate with others. In my opinion, you are being entitled.
and for the price: there are a loot of cheap options with great quality. but you were here for 6 months so it's really understandable that you didn't find all the alternatives. but as for the transportation: Austria's transportation is really cheap compared to other European countries. like, as a university student, you only pay around 75€ for an entire semester.
I think its a cute opinion. Im Austria, living in another country so i understand the perspective of things bothers you. One thing which is simply not true tho; at least in vienna there is ALWAYS a pharmacie open at night, they are called "Nachtapotheke" and its usually one for each neighbourhood.
Used to live in Vienna and the public transport is one of the cheapest in Europe. Just 50 euros per month or 365 per year (1 euro per day) for full access to Wiener Linen (trams, buses, metro and even regional trains access in Vienna). Also there are cheap places to eat lunch by spending sth like 10 euros on average. Housing is also affordable. Living in Vienna is not that expensive. I was not exceeding 900 euros per moth for food and rent (I was not living in a shared flat). Initially I was also a bit disappointed not having any opened grocery store on Sunday, but those people have families too and they deserve a day off to rest. I mean it was not hard to buy all the stuff that I need on Friday evening or Saturday. I also appreciate that payed holidays are respected in Austria as well, so grocery stores are closed as well. Also in Vienna almost everyone speaks English, but here I agree that in smaller cities such as Graz or Innsbruck you might have a hard time to find people who speak English. Regarding medicine it is true that they have a different mindset and usually you should check a doctor who will give you a prescription, but if you really feel sick the pharmacist will inquire about you symptoms and give you something until you could go to the doctor. But they really didn't mind or ask any questions when I needed sth very basic like Paracetamol. The only real problem that I found in Vienna and the main reason why I left is the large amount of people. I know that for such a big city it is still relaxed compared to Madrid, Barcelona or London, but I come from a 300k (population) town and it was just simply too crowded for me, especially that I had the office in the first district.
Also the cost of using the public transport in Vienna is not expensive, it is actually sooooooo cheap. If you pay up front for a year (or you can pay up front monthly) using the transport will cost you only €1 per day and for this you can use the train, the bus or the tram. So transport costs in Vienna are ridiculously cheap.
There are farmacies that open all night. But it's usually only one farmacy for a pretty large area and the change every day. It's called Nachtdienst/Nachtapotheke.
There actually is a nightshift for pharmacies in every city, in Krems it´s 18:00-8:00 - nevertheless you have to google (or know) which pharmacy is on nightshift on which day. (In Vienna there is even a cheap delivery service for medications) The shop-situation is better in Vienna, but if it´s not too late you can still buy necessary things from a gasstation. - more expensive, but closing later Weather is shit - you´re absolutely right. XD Out of interest i´m watching this kind of videos and was laughing when i started into yours, because i´m living in Krems. ^^
Funny but I respect your opinion :) Well for my opinion after migrating in Vienna for more than a year now, I find it here awesome and not so expensive as you said.. For example the Public Transport, if you have a monthly card which cost 50Euro compared to Berlin that cost 81€, ( both are monthly cost) And for Student, there is a discount, you just have to show your Id card. For the food, its not that everything is expensive because you can buy Menu in some Restaurant for only 8€., and of course it is normal that some Menu in Restaurant are expensive, as it is everywhere. Regarding Pharmacy, there is a Pharmacy where is open 24hours., you just have to check it on Internet where is exactly located, and if you found yourself not in a good situation you can always call for help, they have emergency number. For the Shop/Malls, I find it better for the people who are working there, atlease they have time for themselves and for their Family. You should put yourself on that working people shoes so you can understand how hard is to work on weekend. German language is already given, since your in their country you have to learn and adjust. (Atlease basic such, buying, taking order etc... )Last about Study is difficult ; wow! That’s normal girl., all over the World Study is difficult. Thats all.,
Sandra Ramsl Hi! Thanks for a polite feedback! 🙏🏾 I love Austria and Vienna so much! I said it in this video as well as in previous (5 benefits of living in Austria). Speaking about “expensive point”. I’m a student from Russia. We have different currency, so when it’s transferring to euro it’s automatically becoming more expensive. However, it’s not only about this. It’s pretty common fact that Austria is one of the most expensive countries in Europe. I spoke with lots of students from all around the world, and for many of them Austria was expensive (even for some Austrian students). Also, the public transport is trains along the country as well. And for going to Salzburg and return to Vienna (for example) you have to pay 120€ - I know for sure because my mom paid this price when she came to visit me (with student card OBB it will be 60€ what is expensive as well) Speaking about food, yes, you can find normal prices, but usually it’s around 15€ for a dish. If we compare Brno which is 2 hours from Vienna, it will be twice less there. I was living in Krems (that 1 hour from Vienna) and there were no open pharmacies at night. Also know for sure, because I was checking. In Vienna , from what my friends that living there told me, if there are some open pharmacies, usually it’s quite a lot to go to them. Shops - yes, I understand people who work there, but I was speaking from my side. I’m used to open shops near me at night. German - I’m studying German really hard and it’s difficult for me (the beginner) to speak and understand Austrian accent , so that’s why I faced with problems. Again, all drawbacks were only from my side, how I PERSONALLY felt there. Thanks!
Sandra is right. There is indeed a pharmacy in every district that is open during nighttime and weekends. As the pharmacies take turns, you have to look up (Internet, newspapers, ect) to which one you have to go. Mind you, the staff of the open pharmacy won‘t let you inside their shop: you have to ring a bell and someone will come and get what you want while you wait outside.
You are so cute. And your very strong, independent and courageous. I dont know how you travel and not know the languages. Thank you for sharing. Take care and hope to see another video soon. 😘
Hello Dari! I love Austria with my whole heart, I fully respect and appreciate everyone around me, been living in Vienna since 19 years . I fully understand your points and I absolutely agree and respect that it is your personal experience. Nobody should feel offended or contradict you. There are always two sides and yes, Austria has them as well. Regarding transportation: I find it expensive! Not for me as I have a yearly card which costs 365Eur / year, not for a pupil, student or pensioner (it's truly amazing to be able to have such a good cost). But for a visitor from other cities and countries, it's expensive. Maybe to balance out the reductions that others (and myself) benefit. Comparing to Sofia, Bucharest, Budapest, Prague, Rome it is more expensive here. Comparing it to Amsterdam, Copenhagen or Berlin, it is cheaper. Parking on the street is Eur 2.20 / h. Yes, as you rightfully pointed, a meal in a good restaurant comes at min. 30 Euro / person. Natural food and produce from farmers' markets or bio supermarkets are pricey (quality costs). Shops close at 1 or 2pm on Saturdays (supermarkets at 6pm) and will not open until Monday. Grocery shops could be open on Sundays at the train or gas stations. During the weekdays, shops would close at 6pm (ex. my shop) / 7pm or latest at 8pm (for supermarkets). Someone mentioned Lugner City that is closing at 9pm but yeah... There are "night and weekend pharmacies" listed online but I remember the nights when my husband drove like crazy to that open pharmacy when I was in pain. And the prices are way higher than the "day prices". Ex. in Bucharest or Paris there are non-stop pharmacies and supermarkets that keep the same prices. In many countries, people love to speak English no matter how little they know. In Austria, many don't like to talk out of principle. Although the tourism field brings a huge income, I met many Austrians that told me that out of principle, they don't want to make foreigners the favor to speak English. Like people should learn German. But to many foreigners, English is their secondary or third language which means that they also make an effort. On the other hand, there are absolutely lovely elderly Austrians that simply don't know any foreign language and you see that in their eyes and your heart melts and you then make the best effort to make yourself understood. All your positives from your other video are so true: safety, education, cleanliness, architecture, arts, culture, cuisine, transport / social / political system, the wonderful people no matter their nationality! Thank you for your honest and brave feedback and I hope that you will visit again this beautiful country! Sunny greetings from Vienna, x
Hi Dari, In Italy it is the same. The shops all close at 8pm. Only bars, restaurants, pizzerias are open after 8pm here. I wonder what your first name is in Russian. Can you please tell me?
Oh girl, I am sorry to tell you but you really know nothing about Austria! 1) Austria is nowhere near as expensive as you tell people here! However, if you eat at tourists hot spots, you pay more, just like in any other country in the world. I have lived in Austria since I was born and have never paid € 30 for just one person! It would be better if you would inform yourself about the prices online, then you will notice that your statement about the prices in restaurants is simply wrong 2) You should be prepared for people in a German-speaking country to speak German. Almost everyone under the age of 40 speaks English. 3) Not everything closes as early as you tell here. Here you can also find out more on the Internet! There are always 24/7 pharmacies in every district and also other shops. I could send you a List of more than 50 restaurants which has opend until 4am! 4) You are an adult for a lecturer at the university and are treated as such. The more you learn, the better you get. If you go to university to have fun and party, the next time you should better visit the USA. 5) You mean it rains almost every day in April and May? Maybe you were in another country, but in the Austria I live in, that just doesn't apply. Did you really live in Austria for 6 months? Sorry I can't believe you. Almost everything you tell here is wrong. You really shouldn't post videos like this! This shows at least all Austrians that you have made no effort to get to know Austria and obviously still believe to give "important" tips to other people.
You are VERY critical on her, but I agree with you on points 1-3. As of partying at University you're wrong with US-Universities. There are some low key universities in the US, where you might be right, but if you think of the high ranking Universities there's no way of party-life only when studying there (Harvard, Stanford, Princeton, MIT and so on). So that's a bit biased. Point 5) Hard to give a statement on the weather, right? It can change and depends on the place you are at in Austria. As I live here since I was born, I can just say, that it's constantly changing.
Nice, I am from austria and I amdit I don`t understand your downsides. Yes it isn`t allways cheap but not everyone needs to speak english since it`s not our language. And not every shop needs to be 24/7 just cause you want it to be. And really, the weather ... even the romans know that it`s cold in austria ;-)
Great video, thanks for sharing. Please ignore the enraged comments, your video is absolutely positive, you did clearly state that you love it there. Thx again 🤗
Despite some of its flaws Austria is best country and wouldn’t live in any other country. Gott segne Österreich! 🇦🇹 Good video! Have you ever been to Mattersburg? If not definitely recommend, lived there my whole life so far!
Typical Austrian can’t describe how much I love Austria ♥️♥️😍 Thank you for your comment! Honestly, I’ve never heard about this town. Will visit one day for sure! Thanks for recommending 🙏🏾
I agree 100% with what you’ve said, I grew up in Brazil/USA & lived in many places. I even own property here in Austria. Overall, Austria felt like a dystopia in the disguise of “social benefits” ... The populace rejects anyone that is not “pure austrian/white” - makes work & social life a cumbersome ordeal with no future. It is not a place to find a home, in any sense of the word.
The pharmacies (Apotheke) run a rota for urgent prescriptions. Austrians generally do not speak English very well, or are unwilling to do so. For example, the Dutch, Belgians, Swedes, Norwegians, Danes and Finns all speak English at a MUCH higher level than Austrians (or Germans). This is in part due to the lack of being able to listen to British or American movies in English on TV. In the aforementioned countries this has been available to the people for decades, but Austria always finds a reason not to make the original soundtrack available to Austrian viewers. Secondly, the English language is taught falsely in schools : the kids are taught to pronounce an „a“ as an „e“, eg „fens“ (not fans), or „bed“ (not bad). It hits me like hAmmer every time I hear it..😳🤮😡
Thank you for your video beautiful lady. How ever I would like to make a comment on your arguments, I hope that's OK! :) 1. Austria is not more expensive than the average European developed city. If you compare it to Switzerland, Sweden, Norway and Holland and Germany then it's cheaper. But if you compare it with Hugary, Croatia, Slovenia and Romania then it's more expensive but life quality is also much much higher. 2. German language- yes it's not the easiest language and maybe not everyone speaks it specially the older generation but almost most of the younger generation understand and can communicate in English even in small towns. If you compare it to Russia, Romania and those eastern block countries then a much larger majority of Austrians speak English in comparison. 3. Everything closes early- that's probably true to Tirol and smaller cities but in Wien everything is open the same hrs as most European cities. Ofcourse you can't compare Wien with London and Moscow but for example of you compare to Stockholm, Berlin and Amsterdam is exactly same opening hrs. 4.Difficult Study- that's an entirely subjective matter depending on the person. Some people wouldn't agree with you. The education system is quiet similar to Hungary, Germany. I bet also in Russia it's not very easy to study and get into the more popular degrees at university. But that's also the same with France, UK and so on. 5. Austria Cold- that's not very accurate darling specially if compared to Russia. Compared to Sweden, Norway and Finland , Austria seems like the French Rivera in terms of temperature and hours of sunlight. Also, if you live the Alps in Tirol then it's natural that it would be cold. The summer's in Austria are warm and most years beautiful with 3 months of summer. In Scandinavia for instance the summers usually have alot of rain and it's barely 2 months of sunlight with usual temperatures of 20 degrees maximum, so once again in comparison the summer's are more like mediteranean countries. So, do a little bit more travelling and you will see how wonderful, warm, cheap and great Austria is as a country. 😊
Thanks for your feedback! Was really interesting reading it! I respect your opinion but as I said in the video - I share my opinion as a student from Russia ☺️🙌🏾 and speaking about traveling ahaha I visited 32 countries and still find Austria to be cold (Russia is super cold for me) Anyway, thank you again ✨
The older people can be rude asf. But the younger people are alright. The guys and girls are very different from each other tho and nobody is really confrontational.
Great, informative, educational and entertaining video. It is true that the most advanced Western European countries are also the most expensive. Try Portugal instead! Having to study hard in college to make great grades.... Hmm where have I heard that before? The question is though: do you feel that you learned more in Austria than you would have in Russia? The quality of the education. More such informative videos, please 🙏🏻
I did an internship in Villach, which is a small town in Carinthia for 3 months in 2019 and I agree with most of your points. I knew very little German and I also had to face some situations where people didn't understand English but anyways it wasn't a huge problem there because the people there were really nice and helpful. The day I came to Villach it was raining heavily and the temperature dropped very low and I literally froze to death because I hadn't brought any winter clothes since it was summer time.😂 The other thing which I missed there were fans. Like nowhere I could find them and sometimes during peak summer sleeping at night would be a bit tough. And the other thing was that you'll drink more beer than water in Austria 🤣. I also found the cost of food to be higher but I mostly cooked food by myself but still my grocery bills would be higher than expected and obviously the cost of living is very high there. But overall I really enjoyed my time in Austria and made alot of memories there.
Sorry to say, but part of it is not like it is in reality. As of prices, opening hours of pharmacies and conditions of communication in English. What is true are closing of most shops on sundays, but even then you will find something to eat at food shops at gas stations or on train-stations in the bigger cities.
There are so many other countries where the same facts applies to and even more. Though isn't maybe hard to resume a country in only few points? After all there is no such a thing as perfect place and we'll always favore our respective countries compared to others. Russia is beautiful and so amazing and Austria is also the same. The perfect place is where the heart is 😊 Nice video though🙏😊
The transportation is very very cheap. A year-card costs 365€ one euro a day and you can use the transportation in other places in austria too. A students card costs about 70€ and you also can use other transportations in other places.
@@dianesfernake9036 As food and electronic goods concerned they are cheaper in Germany (and we are angry 'bout that, too, you can believe me!). As public transport is concerned you're better off in Austria.
A year ticket for Metro cost 360€for students as I know. Thasts one Euro a day. Compared to Munich, where I live. There is not even a Year ticket, if you would buy monthy or daily ticket to use everyday, you would end up with over 1.000€ So Vienna is everything but expensive. You should really move to Munich,then you will know what expensive living is like. My opinion (as german): Austria is the better Germany xD
I remember i bought some day tickets online in Vienna and it was really cheap. I had like pdf ticket in my phone but nobody asked me. You can also by long distance tickets early so it will be much cheaper. I could travel 5 hours for just 30 euros. Most annoying thing of course that shops are closed on Sundays and very early. Local people can save tons of money but we tourists want to go shopping. Shopping is really relaxing, I can't live without it.
I don't know how I missed for two days, I was remembering to see this... Having said that, none of those points affected or a downside to me. However nice try 🙂
1. Expensive - Initially yes if you come from country with less purchasing power. But once you adapt to system and know where is where, it will be easy. Expensive food in these days is combination of healthy + Comfort. You can decide which one you can reduce to get a deal. 2. German - I faced it too, as you being a student you won’t have time to get learn it and especially if you doing Erasmus program, etc. Trust me if you speak very basic then it should not be a problem. 3. Shop timing - Correct, it is highly regulated country so you can see in working hours too. Nevertheless there are extra opening hour shops in Prater-Billa, Main station and elsewhere in small streets. One shop I know in 5th district der Wiedner Hauptstrasse which open 24/7 4. Difficult to study - Honestly I cannot comment because it is one’s individual skill. However I did not study in Austria 5. Cold Weather - Being from a hot and humid country, I find the cold here is not enough. Sometimes if you live in Wien, wind here is terrible otherwise it is pleasant climate to enjoy with Beer.
@@praveenkumarvelraj8416 Thank you so much for sharing your opinion! Really interesting to hear it! P.S. I am studying German and know basis, but for me the problem was Austrian accent that I understand badly :)
Damn vro thats crazy, people speak German in Austria? Woah. I wonder how many people in Russia speak english by the way? Oh yeah... NOBODY! Xaxaxxaxaxaxaxxa
You right, most Germans and Austrians don't speak English. It's embarrassing. In the Netherlands, for example, at least 90% of Dutch speak fluently or at least very good English. However, the Netherlands, where I live now, is much more expensive than Austria. Anyhow, I really like your review. It's short and straight to the point. Good job. Cheers
75% of Austrians can hold a conversation in english. It‘s in the top 5 in Europe, so your statement that Austrian don‘t speak english is just absolutely false lol you can say that about Spain (22%) or Italy (34%) but not Austria
Vienna is the best city for living, but not the happiest. Let me explain why. This is just my experience. I like the city. It is always clean. I like also the Barock and Art Noveau styled buildings along with modern architecture. That is astonishing. Museums and events are perfect. Shops, everything you need to buy, you will find in Vienna. Plus the transport system, it is just perfect. I would say, Vienna is like a beautiful dream. But from other side point of view, what disturbes me, are the people. It is literally Babylon Zoo. Mixture of thousands different cultures. It leads only to lots of problems. The locals constantly cursing, if is there any kind of problem, the foreigners are always responsible. Either they are stealing work or they do not have a job. But as foreigner, it is very hard to find appropiate job. So you have to reconcile with low payed job, which locals would not work. The last thing. If you are awaiting hearty welcome, forget it. Even if you are going to speak with locals in german, they will answer in dialect, which most foreigners do not understand. If you do not understand they laugh at you, but they barely knows what high german language means...
Thanks for an interesting feedback!!! I can't say that I completely agree since all the people I met were very nice. Perhaps due to the fact that I'm Russian we have similar mentalities. But it is also worth noting that I studied there and did not emigrate, so probably you're right ^^
Dari Step This is just my own experience and how do i feel as a foreigner.I am from Czech Republic and i am sure that there are also good people, but i did not meet them yet :)
Actually in Vienna public transport isn't that expensive compared to other European capitals. The annual ticket costs 365 € so for 1 € a day you can use all the trams, buses and metro lines.
But I agree that the cost of housing has risen a lot in the last 10 years.
How is german language a disadvantage in a german speaking country wtf
You shouldn't come live in a country where you know is a German speaking country and call it a disadvantage
This video is aimed at people who are considering moving to Austria. Some of those people might wrongly assume that everyone there speaks English. Hope this helps answer your question.
Because of the dialects bruh
It is not true that you cannot find a pharmacy open in Vienna at nighttime. In fact in every district in Vienna there are pharmacies that stay open late every night. You can get information which tells you exactly which pharmacy will be open on which night, as the local pharmacies operate a rota system between themselves so that customers can still get their medication after all the general shops have closed for the night. .
"I moved to Athens,. I was shocked to discover you need to speak Greek!" 😂
Well if austria is expensive xou should visit switzerland 😂
Or go to Norway
!
I’ve lived in the States, Japan and Austria for many years in each place and Austria is absolutely the best of them all. Period! My German is no good, but I manage. Average restaurant meal is more like 12 eur in Vienna. Winters are cold and dark but that makes you appreciate the beautiful springs that much more. Lovely country!
I'm Austrian and glad to hear that from you!
Thank you for this! your advice is very useful
Kumt nu wer vo Österreich?
jo scha^^
Na
Jeppp

Frale!
Sorry but these points are almost all not true. We have plenty of Restaurants with lower prices. The travelsystem is very cheap and you get low prices for Students. Imagine you live in a Country where people speak there own language omg! ;) we have many old people in Austria, they never had to learn englisch, or simply don't want to speak it. There are many farmacie stores open at night, we call this Notfallapotheke, you can get medication at night aswell... and it is good that you need to go to a doctor for most of the medications, instead of getting any drug you want. It is also a good thing to not open stores at night, because we are not so many people and it would be very expansive to open up all night and sunday is the day of the Lord and we are a Christian Religion based culture. Also imagine you have to study properly to really learn something ... cmon this is like the reason to study... it is not like in russia where you can buy almost everything, beginning with the driving license.
Speaking of russia... it is way colder in russia lol, but yeah this one is kinda true. If you ask me, you probably are to young and it wasn't the right time for your journey
KY SA I said how I felt there, my experience ☺️ and it’s not about young or old! For me, as a student from Russia, it was expensive :) Also, many students from other countries told me the same! Have a nice day 👌🏾😌
i will tell more, almost all europe don`t speak english i was working in czech republick i was in polland i was in hungery nower in this are wery hard to found some thats speak it, and only in polland i saw 24h stores, and thank you for telling this because i`m after all of whis is ower whant to whent for work in austria
@@DariStep Did you really say, a meal would be about 30€? I listened and I heard just that. May be, u meant 13€? You should know that in Vienna and most of the other cities, where universities are, there is something, called "Mensa". That are restaurants for students, where meals are very cheap (5-7€), and there are a lot of cheap restaurants nearby the universities. I don't know the situation in Krems, but Krems is situated in a very touristic region, so the prices might be higher there. Concerning the weather: yes, there is a lot of rain, sometimes, specially when you are in the mountains, but it depends really on where you are living. In Vienna there's not so much rain (except this year). The last years Austria had problems because of heat and drought in the summer. So, thanks god, we have more rain this season. But in winter it can get cold. The last years it has been pretty mild in winter, compared to 30, 40 years ago. And in summer it gets normally pretty hot. As posted above, you can get medicine also at night, because pharmacies have an emergency system running. And shopping on Sunday: you're right, there are very few shops open on sundays. They're mostly at train stations and only in bigger cities. If you really need something on sunday you got to shops as gas stations. They are small but you can get something for your kitchen there. So, at last: yes, studying in Austria is not easy, but also it depends on, what you're studying. In Austria the standards of the educational system is high, but nothing compared with systems like in Korea or Japan, Singapour. We want to get highly qualified persons coming out of our universities ;-)
@@zver940 For Poland and CZ zhat might be true but surely not for western european countries
Some pharmacies are kind of „open“ at night!
Someone is there and you can go there in an emergency!
But it is not encouraged to go there, if you can wait until the morning
yes, we´re expensive, but you can still easily find good restaurants in my country where you dine a lot cheaper than you said, let´s say half of it, great quality the same. if you´re able to google, you can find open pharmacies 24/7, there´s always a few on emergency. same goes for shopping. you´ll always find a shop if you really really need something. all 24/7 gasoline stations are supermarkets, too. for us, it is a luxury when shops are closed on sundays and holidays, because permanent shopping is an awful bondage in our western culture. as for the language: actually, almost everybody here in austria speaks english, but that said: why should they in the first place?
Gerald Herrmann look, I just said things that I found difficult as an international student from Russia 🙌🏾🙈I shared MY experience)
I could not find in the internet open pharmacies. And I said about shops and English speaking people what was inconvenient for me (as to international student)
In the end I paid attention to the fact that these things didn’t destroy my opinion about Austria and pointed out how much I love your country 🙏🏾♥️
Peace ✌🏾
@@DariStep How dare you criticise anything about my country is what he was trying to say.
@@DariStep Sorry, but you can't blame anybody else but yourself for not being informed about the possibilities you have to get meds or food on weekends. Normally, anybody would try to find informations on that in the internet. If you had asked anybody living here they would have given you informations on that as well. So, I have to say, your video only shows that you didn't do your job so well to inform yourself about things concerned.
Autrians don't have to understand you nor do they have to know english. You had to be prepared to understand german so you could communicate with others. In my opinion, you are being entitled.
there are pharmacies open the entire night. you get check online or ask your doctor where the nearest open pharmacy is. :)
and for the price: there are a loot of cheap options with great quality. but you were here for 6 months so it's really understandable that you didn't find all the alternatives. but as for the transportation: Austria's transportation is really cheap compared to other European countries. like, as a university student, you only pay around 75€ for an entire semester.
I think its a cute opinion. Im Austria, living in another country so i understand the perspective of things bothers you.
One thing which is simply not true tho; at least in vienna there is ALWAYS a pharmacie open at night, they are called "Nachtapotheke" and its usually one for each neighbourhood.
Used to live in Vienna and the public transport is one of the cheapest in Europe. Just 50 euros per month or 365 per year (1 euro per day) for full access to Wiener Linen (trams, buses, metro and even regional trains access in Vienna). Also there are cheap places to eat lunch by spending sth like 10 euros on average. Housing is also affordable. Living in Vienna is not that expensive. I was not exceeding 900 euros per moth for food and rent (I was not living in a shared flat). Initially I was also a bit disappointed not having any opened grocery store on Sunday, but those people have families too and they deserve a day off to rest. I mean it was not hard to buy all the stuff that I need on Friday evening or Saturday. I also appreciate that payed holidays are respected in Austria as well, so grocery stores are closed as well. Also in Vienna almost everyone speaks English, but here I agree that in smaller cities such as Graz or Innsbruck you might have a hard time to find people who speak English. Regarding medicine it is true that they have a different mindset and usually you should check a doctor who will give you a prescription, but if you really feel sick the pharmacist will inquire about you symptoms and give you something until you could go to the doctor. But they really didn't mind or ask any questions when I needed sth very basic like Paracetamol. The only real problem that I found in Vienna and the main reason why I left is the large amount of people. I know that for such a big city it is still relaxed compared to Madrid, Barcelona or London, but I come from a 300k (population) town and it was just simply too crowded for me, especially that I had the office in the first district.
Also the cost of using the public transport in Vienna is not expensive, it is actually sooooooo cheap. If you pay up front for a year (or you can pay up front monthly) using the transport will cost you only €1 per day and for this you can use the train, the bus or the tram. So transport costs in Vienna are ridiculously cheap.
it depends on the point of view. this is your point of view and I can fully understand it.
There are farmacies that open all night. But it's usually only one farmacy for a pretty large area and the change every day. It's called Nachtdienst/Nachtapotheke.
There actually is a nightshift for pharmacies in every city, in Krems it´s 18:00-8:00 - nevertheless you have to google (or know) which pharmacy is on nightshift on which day. (In Vienna there is even a cheap delivery service for medications) The shop-situation is better in Vienna, but if it´s not too late you can still buy necessary things from a gasstation. - more expensive, but closing later
Weather is shit - you´re absolutely right. XD
Out of interest i´m watching this kind of videos and was laughing when i started into yours, because i´m living in Krems. ^^
Funny but I respect your opinion :)
Well for my opinion after migrating in Vienna for more than a year now, I find it here awesome and not so expensive as you said..
For example the Public Transport, if you have a monthly card which cost 50Euro compared to Berlin that cost 81€, ( both are monthly cost) And for Student, there is a discount, you just have to show your Id card.
For the food, its not that everything is expensive because you can buy Menu in some Restaurant for only 8€., and of course it is normal that some Menu in Restaurant are expensive, as it is everywhere.
Regarding Pharmacy, there is a Pharmacy where is open 24hours., you just have to check it on Internet where is exactly located, and if you found yourself not in a good situation you can always call for help, they have emergency number.
For the Shop/Malls, I find it better for the people who are working there, atlease they have time for themselves and for their Family. You should put yourself on that working people shoes so you can understand how hard is to work on weekend.
German language is already given, since your in their country you have to learn and adjust. (Atlease basic such, buying, taking order etc... )Last about Study is difficult ; wow! That’s normal girl., all over the World Study is difficult.
Thats all.,
Sandra Ramsl Hi! Thanks for a polite feedback! 🙏🏾
I love Austria and Vienna so much! I said it in this video as well as in previous (5 benefits of living in Austria).
Speaking about “expensive point”. I’m a student from Russia. We have different currency, so when it’s transferring to euro it’s automatically becoming more expensive. However, it’s not only about this. It’s pretty common fact that Austria is one of the most expensive countries in Europe. I spoke with lots of students from all around the world, and for many of them Austria was expensive (even for some Austrian students).
Also, the public transport is trains along the country as well. And for going to Salzburg and return to Vienna (for example) you have to pay 120€ - I know for sure because my mom paid this price when she came to visit me (with student card OBB it will be 60€ what is expensive as well)
Speaking about food, yes, you can find normal prices, but usually it’s around 15€ for a dish. If we compare Brno which is 2 hours from Vienna, it will be twice less there.
I was living in Krems (that 1 hour from Vienna) and there were no open pharmacies at night. Also know for sure, because I was checking. In Vienna , from what my friends that living there told me, if there are some open pharmacies, usually it’s quite a lot to go to them.
Shops - yes, I understand people who work there, but I was speaking from my side. I’m used to open shops near me at night.
German - I’m studying German really hard and it’s difficult for me (the beginner) to speak and understand Austrian accent , so that’s why I faced with problems.
Again, all drawbacks were only from my side, how I PERSONALLY felt there.
Thanks!
Sandra is right. There is indeed a pharmacy in every district that is open during nighttime and weekends. As the pharmacies take turns, you have to look up (Internet, newspapers, ect) to which one you have to go. Mind you, the staff of the open pharmacy won‘t let you inside their shop: you have to ring a bell and someone will come and get what you want while you wait outside.
Where are you from btw?did you prefer germany or austria
Thanks for the video :)
Stores are open until 8 pm in Vienna
Except in Lugner City where everything is open until 9pm.
Not true at all.
You are so cute. And your very strong, independent and courageous. I dont know how you travel and not know the languages. Thank you for sharing. Take care and hope to see another video soon. 😘
Dari step. "Ti milaya" ;). Like you're accent aswell. Greetings from austria!
Guys relax she’s just giving her opinion
There are Pharmacies that are open 24 hours everywhere...
Hello Dari! I love Austria with my whole heart, I fully respect and appreciate everyone around me, been living in Vienna since 19 years . I fully understand your points and I absolutely agree and respect that it is your personal experience. Nobody should feel offended or contradict you. There are always two sides and yes, Austria has them as well. Regarding transportation: I find it expensive! Not for me as I have a yearly card which costs 365Eur / year, not for a pupil, student or pensioner (it's truly amazing to be able to have such a good cost). But for a visitor from other cities and countries, it's expensive. Maybe to balance out the reductions that others (and myself) benefit. Comparing to Sofia, Bucharest, Budapest, Prague, Rome it is more expensive here. Comparing it to Amsterdam, Copenhagen or Berlin, it is cheaper. Parking on the street is Eur 2.20 / h. Yes, as you rightfully pointed, a meal in a good restaurant comes at min. 30 Euro / person. Natural food and produce from farmers' markets or bio supermarkets are pricey (quality costs). Shops close at 1 or 2pm on Saturdays (supermarkets at 6pm) and will not open until Monday. Grocery shops could be open on Sundays at the train or gas stations. During the weekdays, shops would close at 6pm (ex. my shop) / 7pm or latest at 8pm (for supermarkets). Someone mentioned Lugner City that is closing at 9pm but yeah...
There are "night and weekend pharmacies" listed online but I remember the nights when my husband drove like crazy to that open pharmacy when I was in pain. And the prices are way higher than the "day prices". Ex. in Bucharest or Paris there are non-stop pharmacies and supermarkets that keep the same prices. In many countries, people love to speak English no matter how little they know. In Austria, many don't like to talk out of principle. Although the tourism field brings a huge income, I met many Austrians that told me that out of principle, they don't want to make foreigners the favor to speak English. Like people should learn German. But to many foreigners, English is their secondary or third language which means that they also make an effort. On the other hand, there are absolutely lovely elderly Austrians that simply don't know any foreign language and you see that in their eyes and your heart melts and you then make the best effort to make yourself understood.
All your positives from your other video are so true: safety, education, cleanliness, architecture, arts, culture, cuisine, transport / social / political system, the wonderful people no matter their nationality!
Thank you for your honest and brave feedback and I hope that you will visit again this beautiful country! Sunny greetings from Vienna, x
Hi Dari, In Italy it is the same. The shops all close at 8pm. Only bars, restaurants, pizzerias are open after 8pm here. I wonder what your first name is in Russian. Can you please tell me?
I always found Vienna really cheap for transport.
German language is really very difficult to speak and understand I will just visit Austria as a exchange in vennia that much is ok
Informative!
Very Good info👍
Oh girl, I am sorry to tell you but you really know nothing about Austria!
1) Austria is nowhere near as expensive as you tell people here! However, if you eat at tourists hot spots, you pay more, just like in any other country in the world. I have lived in Austria since I was born and have never paid € 30 for just one person! It would be better if you would inform yourself about the prices online, then you will notice that your statement about the prices in restaurants is simply wrong
2) You should be prepared for people in a German-speaking country to speak German. Almost everyone under the age of 40 speaks English.
3) Not everything closes as early as you tell here. Here you can also find out more on the Internet! There are always 24/7 pharmacies in every district and also other shops. I could send you a List of more than 50 restaurants which has opend until 4am!
4) You are an adult for a lecturer at the university and are treated as such. The more you learn, the better you get. If you go to university to have fun and party, the next time you should better visit the USA.
5) You mean it rains almost every day in April and May? Maybe you were in another country, but in the Austria I live in, that just doesn't apply.
Did you really live in Austria for 6 months? Sorry I can't believe you. Almost everything you tell here is wrong. You really shouldn't post videos like this! This shows at least all Austrians that you have made no effort to get to know Austria and obviously still believe to give "important" tips to other people.
You are VERY critical on her, but I agree with you on points 1-3. As of partying at University you're wrong with US-Universities. There are some low key universities in the US, where you might be right, but if you think of the high ranking Universities there's no way of party-life only when studying there (Harvard, Stanford, Princeton, MIT and so on). So that's a bit biased. Point 5) Hard to give a statement on the weather, right? It can change and depends on the place you are at in Austria. As I live here since I was born, I can just say, that it's constantly changing.
Last time i was in austria that was in 1991 for wintersport
Great informative educational video thank you so much for great sharing have a good day take care 💖💅👌
This was actually a good review. Thank you.
Nice, I am from austria and I amdit I don`t understand your downsides. Yes it isn`t allways cheap but not everyone needs to speak english since it`s not our language. And not every shop needs to be 24/7 just cause you want it to be. And really, the weather ... even the romans know that it`s cold in austria ;-)
Hhhhh funny i like your comment
Hello girl. That’s cool u have so many different experiences. Love watching ur content.
I live in Cyprus and I visited Austria. I was shocked by the prices!!! But I loved everything else!! ❤️🥰
Great video, thanks for sharing. Please ignore the enraged comments, your video is absolutely positive, you did clearly state that you love it there. Thx again 🤗
Despite some of its flaws Austria is best country and wouldn’t live in any other country. Gott segne Österreich! 🇦🇹
Good video!
Have you ever been to Mattersburg? If not definitely recommend, lived there my whole life so far!
Typical Austrian can’t describe how much I love Austria ♥️♥️😍 Thank you for your comment! Honestly, I’ve never heard about this town. Will visit one day for sure! Thanks for recommending 🙏🏾
I agree 100% with what you’ve said, I grew up in Brazil/USA & lived in many places. I even own property here in Austria. Overall, Austria felt like a dystopia in the disguise of “social benefits” ... The populace rejects anyone that is not “pure austrian/white” - makes work & social life a cumbersome ordeal with no future.
It is not a place to find a home, in any sense of the word.
I'm thinking about studying in Austria from next year... so can u please give an estimate of monthly expenses? .. that would be really helpful
i am thinking as well if you get any information of the expenses can you contact me in instagram @admirhasani_ thank u
Nice perspective of living in Austria, Dari!
The pharmacies (Apotheke) run a rota for urgent prescriptions. Austrians generally do not speak English very well, or are unwilling to do so. For example, the Dutch, Belgians, Swedes, Norwegians, Danes and Finns all speak English at a MUCH higher level than Austrians (or Germans). This is in part due to the lack of being able to listen to British or American movies in English on TV. In the aforementioned countries this has been available to the people for decades, but Austria always finds a reason not to make the original soundtrack available to Austrian viewers. Secondly, the English language is taught falsely in schools : the kids are taught to pronounce an „a“ as an „e“, eg „fens“ (not fans), or „bed“ (not bad). It hits me like hAmmer every time I hear it..😳🤮😡
Thank you for your video beautiful lady. How ever I would like to make a comment on your arguments, I hope that's OK! :)
1. Austria is not more expensive than the average European developed city. If you compare it to Switzerland, Sweden, Norway and Holland and Germany then it's cheaper. But if you compare it with Hugary, Croatia, Slovenia and Romania then it's more expensive but life quality is also much much higher.
2. German language- yes it's not the easiest language and maybe not everyone speaks it specially the older generation but almost most of the younger generation understand and can communicate in English even in small towns. If you compare it to Russia, Romania and those eastern block countries then a much larger majority of Austrians speak English in comparison.
3. Everything closes early- that's probably true to Tirol and smaller cities but in Wien everything is open the same hrs as most European cities. Ofcourse you can't compare Wien with London and Moscow but for example of you compare to Stockholm, Berlin and Amsterdam is exactly same opening hrs.
4.Difficult Study- that's an entirely subjective matter depending on the person. Some people wouldn't agree with you. The education system is quiet similar to Hungary, Germany. I bet also in Russia it's not very easy to study and get into the more popular degrees at university. But that's also the same with France, UK and so on.
5. Austria Cold- that's not very accurate darling specially if compared to Russia. Compared to Sweden, Norway and Finland , Austria seems like the French Rivera in terms of temperature and hours of sunlight. Also, if you live the Alps in Tirol then it's natural that it would be cold. The summer's in Austria are warm and most years beautiful with 3 months of summer. In Scandinavia for instance the summers usually have alot of rain and it's barely 2 months of sunlight with usual temperatures of 20 degrees maximum, so once again in comparison the summer's are more like mediteranean countries.
So, do a little bit more travelling and you will see how wonderful, warm, cheap and great Austria is as a country. 😊
Thanks for your feedback! Was really interesting reading it! I respect your opinion but as I said in the video - I share my opinion as a student from Russia ☺️🙌🏾 and speaking about traveling ahaha I visited 32 countries and still find Austria to be cold (Russia is super cold for me) Anyway, thank you again ✨
Well maybe you could come with me and I can show you the beauty and positive warm sides of Austria when I visit this summer ;)
But the people?? how is the people??
#diocane people are amazing ♥️
The older people can be rude asf. But the younger people are alright. The guys and girls are very different from each other tho and nobody is really confrontational.
@@DariStep most they old people, the are kinda cute xD
Your engish improved to much!! 😊
Great, informative, educational and entertaining video. It is true that the most advanced Western European countries are also the most expensive. Try Portugal instead!
Having to study hard in college to make great grades.... Hmm where have I heard that before? The question is though: do you feel that you learned more in Austria than you would have in Russia? The quality of the education.
More such informative videos, please 🙏🏻
Lmao I live in Austria and honestly, these are some good points that I never really thought about but agree with
After all you said, it seems that Austria is beautiful but expensive and cold and rainy. I think I'll visit somewhere warm ))
Thanks for presenting in English :)
I did an internship in Villach, which is a small town in Carinthia for 3 months in 2019 and I agree with most of your points. I knew very little German and I also had to face some situations where people didn't understand English but anyways it wasn't a huge problem there because the people there were really nice and helpful.
The day I came to Villach it was raining heavily and the temperature dropped very low and I literally froze to death because I hadn't brought any winter clothes since it was summer time.😂
The other thing which I missed there were fans. Like nowhere I could find them and sometimes during peak summer sleeping at night would be a bit tough.
And the other thing was that you'll drink more beer than water in Austria 🤣. I also found the cost of food to be higher but I mostly cooked food by myself but still my grocery bills would be higher than expected and obviously the cost of living is very high there. But overall I really enjoyed my time in Austria and made alot of memories there.
You didn’t see Germany yet everything closes at 6 pm.
Wtf, maybe it's Lower Austria, but I dined like a king in Styria for like 8 euros.
Nice done ;-) and yes you are right :)
There are pharmacies that are open all night.
Your English and your demeanor are really beautiful.
So beautiful , live your dream...
See you in Austria....🙂
Hello, Iam from Brazil and would love to know more about Austria. I would love to learn from u about it. I think an young view would be great. Thank u
my husband from austria but really i dnt like vienna and evry think is vry expensive im from marocco
Very nice
Thank you! This is really useful
Sorry to say, but part of it is not like it is in reality. As of prices, opening hours of pharmacies and conditions of communication in English. What is true are closing of most shops on sundays, but even then you will find something to eat at food shops at gas stations or on train-stations in the bigger cities.
How can i contact you . I want to know about bachelor education there
Cool info about Austria! hey would you ever like to travel to California some day? Have a great day! ❤
wow nice.. Thank u...
There are so many other countries where the same facts applies to and even more. Though isn't maybe hard to resume a country in only few points? After all there is no such a thing as perfect place and we'll always favore our respective countries compared to others. Russia is beautiful and so amazing and Austria is also the same. The perfect place is where the heart is 😊
Nice video though🙏😊
Yeah I wanted to get into SFU the. The course i wanted to do is provided only in German 🙄
Thanks for an authentic review of Vienna. Well presented, and best of success with your education.
can you kindly tell me if it is possible to earn 800-1000 euro doing part time job as an undergrad student in Linz ?? please reply
Depends on what you are wanting to do. But to me it seems a lot of money for an average student job. Really depends on type of job.
Well compared to eastern europe everywhere is expensive
i absolutely love your accent ❤
Your English sounds so beautiful.
jason parkinson thank you!
i love ur voice is so cute :D
I wish I lived in Austria 🇦🇹 I live in California USA 🇺🇸 and it’s hot all the time even on Christmas 🎄
The transportation is very very cheap. A year-card costs 365€ one euro a day and you can use the transportation in other places in austria too. A students card costs about 70€ and you also can use other transportations in other places.
When you look at the German prices you‘ll see a huge difference
Thanks for your comment ☺️
@@dianesfernake9036 As food and electronic goods concerned they are cheaper in Germany (and we are angry 'bout that, too, you can believe me!). As public transport is concerned you're better off in Austria.
A year ticket for Metro cost 360€for students as I know. Thasts one Euro a day.
Compared to Munich, where I live. There is not even a Year ticket, if you would buy monthy or daily ticket to use everyday, you would end up with over 1.000€
So Vienna is everything but expensive.
You should really move to Munich,then you will know what expensive living is like.
My opinion (as german): Austria is the better Germany xD
I remember i bought some day tickets online in Vienna and it was really cheap. I had like pdf ticket in my phone but nobody asked me. You can also by long distance tickets early so it will be much cheaper. I could travel 5 hours for just 30 euros. Most annoying thing of course that shops are closed on Sundays and very early. Local people can save tons of money but we tourists want to go shopping. Shopping is really relaxing, I can't live without it.
I agree to point one and three 👍
I don't know how I missed for two days, I was remembering to see this... Having said that, none of those points affected or a downside to me. However nice try 🙂
1. Expensive - Initially yes if you come from country with less purchasing power. But once you adapt to system and know where is where, it will be easy. Expensive food in these days is combination of healthy + Comfort. You can decide which one you can reduce to get a deal.
2. German - I faced it too, as you being a student you won’t have time to get learn it and especially if you doing Erasmus program, etc. Trust me if you speak very basic then it should not be a problem.
3. Shop timing - Correct, it is highly regulated country so you can see in working hours too. Nevertheless there are extra opening hour shops in Prater-Billa, Main station and elsewhere in small streets. One shop I know in 5th district der Wiedner Hauptstrasse which open 24/7
4. Difficult to study - Honestly I cannot comment because it is one’s individual skill. However I did not study in Austria
5. Cold Weather - Being from a hot and humid country, I find the cold here is not enough. Sometimes if you live in Wien, wind here is terrible otherwise it is pleasant climate to enjoy with Beer.
@@praveenkumarvelraj8416 Thank you so much for sharing your opinion! Really interesting to hear it!
P.S. I am studying German and know basis, but for me the problem was Austrian accent that I understand badly :)
@@DariStep I agree, Looking forward to see your next video :)
Thank for posting this video Dari. I would like to visit 🇦🇹 Austria soon I hope I will find people who speak English. I am from USA. 🇺🇸
What is your accent? It doesn’t sound Russian or Austrian, but you said you’re from Moscow.
Fine and good;
Same as Belgium
Love it
Please visit India.
Damn vro thats crazy, people speak German in Austria? Woah. I wonder how many people in Russia speak english by the way? Oh yeah... NOBODY! Xaxaxxaxaxaxaxxa
You right, most Germans and Austrians don't speak English. It's embarrassing. In the Netherlands, for example, at least 90% of Dutch speak fluently or at least very good English. However, the Netherlands, where I live now, is much more expensive than Austria. Anyhow, I really like your review. It's short and straight to the point. Good job. Cheers
Thanks a lot Robert ^^
the old people in the Netherlands aren’t that good at speaking english though
@@naurrrr1337 mayyyybe learning English gonna make the language Barrier easier.
75% of Austrians can hold a conversation in english. It‘s in the top 5 in Europe, so your statement that Austrian don‘t speak english is just absolutely false lol you can say that about Spain (22%) or Italy (34%) but not Austria
@@MrCheckex Not sure about that number, and I'm Austrian. I would guess the literacy rate for English in Austria at about 50%.

Dari ur voice is sweet 🧁🎂 yaar
Warum spricht man Englisch in Oesterreich??!!!!
Wie sonst? Deitsch? :D
Interesting!
Vienna is the best city for living, but not the happiest. Let me explain why. This is just my experience. I like the city. It is always clean. I like also the Barock and Art Noveau styled buildings along with modern architecture. That is astonishing. Museums and events are perfect. Shops, everything you need to buy, you will find in Vienna. Plus the transport system, it is just perfect. I would say, Vienna is like a beautiful dream.
But from other side point of view, what disturbes me, are the people. It is literally Babylon Zoo. Mixture of thousands different cultures. It leads only to lots of problems. The locals constantly cursing, if is there any kind of problem, the foreigners are always responsible. Either they are stealing work or they do not have a job. But as foreigner, it is very hard to find appropiate job. So you have to reconcile with low payed job, which locals would not work.
The last thing. If you are awaiting hearty welcome, forget it. Even if you are going to speak with locals in german, they will answer in dialect, which most foreigners do not understand. If you do not understand they laugh at you, but they barely knows what high german language means...
Thanks for an interesting feedback!!!
I can't say that I completely agree since all the people I met were very nice. Perhaps due to the fact that I'm Russian we have similar mentalities. But it is also worth noting that I studied there and did not emigrate, so probably you're right ^^
Dari Step This is just my own experience and how do i feel as a foreigner.I am from Czech Republic and i am sure that there are also good people, but i did not meet them yet :)
Ты как красивая сияющая луна.
You looked and sounds like an Indian girl
I LOVE Austria
you are really pretty :)
