Austria

Ah, Austria. My favorite place to escape, hike, drink schnapps, and explore. Austria, a small and landlocked nation, offers picturesque alpine views, renowned museums with illustrious artworks from the past ages of its grand empire as well as cobblestone streets lined with quaint buildings. Austrians are warm-hearted people who enjoy great coffee in cafes just as much as they love exploring their outdoorsy country. From the opulence of Vienna to the Alps of Wilder Kaiser, this is one of my favorite countries in Europe. And, it's much more affordable than Switzerland with similar views!
