From October 3rd until October 7th, thirteen students of Seville came to visit our school in Austria. They were quartered at some of our student’s places. Some of us had already known each other from „aulavirtual“ and others met the first time. Although there are quite a lot differences between the Spanish and Austrian lifestyle, there are of course a lot of similarities too. We all got along with each other pretty well and soon we became good friends and had a lot of fun together.
On Saturday we had an excursion to Vienna. We visited „Schönbrunn“ palace and many other interesting sights. In the evening we decided to have a short walk to the museum of Wiener Neustadt to see the exhibition there and then we went out to Clumsy’s pub in the famous „Herrengasse“.
The next day we had a trip to the so-called Skywalk on the „Hohe Wand“ mountain. In the late afternoon we had dinner at a „Heurigen“, a typical Austrian restaurant.
On the following day we visited Vienna for the second time together with the „great master“ Harald Makl.
On the last day we participated in a sight-seeing tour in Wiener Neustadt with Norbert Koppensteiner and then had lunch at „Hartig’s Domheurigen“. At 4.30 pm we had to say good bye while we were fighting back our tear. We all wanted to spend much more time together because all days long it was great fun. We learned a lot about the differences and the similarities concerning the culture in both countries and it was a really great experience.
