28. The districts of Vienna - 4th district, Wieden
Get to know the 4th district in this episode with Eugene. After our Neighbourhood Tour through the 4th district, where Eugene took us to the roof terrace of the Technical University and we had a fantastic view over Vienna, I sit with him in our recording studio, and we reviewed the tour. He doesn't just talk about Karlsplatz, the Freihaus neighborhood or the Naschmarkt, no, he also tells us how Vienna SMELLS and we also go in search of the drug scene in Vienna - okay, without success :(He also introduces us to the VOLLPENSION, a coffee house with a ‘lazy & easy atmosphere’, where pensioners bake cakes and tarts according to grandmother's recipe. He recommends trying the very famous SACHER TORTE at Demel and not at Sacher, he recommends the Falter as a weekly newspaper and event calendar and is an enthusiastic FM4 and OE1 listener. He also recommends a visit to Schwindgasse in the 4th district. Enjoy this episode!

25. The districts of Vienna - 3rd district, Landstrasse
Jenny tells Sabine about her experiences in the 3rd district today (as I unfortunately haven't recorded the 2nd district yet. SORRY! However, I promise to do so very soon). Jenny lives in the 3rd district with her husband and two children. It seems that the family are Vienna fans, as this is the second time they have been transferred to Vienna by her husband's employer. The first time they lived in the 21st district. Both times they were assisted by recom relocation. Their relocation consultant was Nicole, who is still in contact with the family and so we were able to invite Jenny for this interview. Jenny's hotspot in the 3rd district is Rochusmarkt and Stadtpark. https://www.ganz-wien.at/wien/maerkte/rochusmarkt.htmlhttps://www.city-walks.info/Wien/Stadtpark.htmlVisit: recom-relocation.atFollow us:instagram.com/recomrelocationhttps://www.instagram.com/clubmelange/facebook.com/recomrelocationgmbhlinkedin.com/recomrelocatio
