I am a content creator and translator who works in English, Mandarin Chinese and German. I have spent 6 years in China working for English-language media. Now I have returned to Vienna, where I originally studied. With parents from the UK and Germany, I am fascinated by the subjects of cross-cultural exchange and cultural identity, especially in a location as multi-faceted and different from my own as China’s.

I went in May and I loved it. I stuck to the free/discounted attractions for the most part but the city was pretty easy to navigate, safe and I thought it was beautiful.

Solo travel experience

I didn’t like Vienna much. It felt underwhelming and not that beautiful, the food wasn’t great, it was expensive, and the only things to really do there were going to museums (which were also expensive). That being said, I did enjoy the museums I went to. They were just annoyingly expensive compared to other museums I went to in Europe.

Solo travel experience

The Naschmarkt was my absolute favorite part of Vienna. It’s this amazing open-air market that sells food, spices, candied fruit, and all sorts of stuff. My favorite meal in Vienna was from there. Goulash from one of the restaurants. I also loved walking by the river. Lovely place to wander.

Solo travelWhich is better: Salzburg or Bratislava? Is it worth it to go on a guided tour?

I'll be traveling to Vienna soon and I have an extra day. I am trying to decide if I should go on a day trip to Salzburg or Bratislava. Any recommendations on which is better? Also, is it worth it to go on a guided tour or just explore on my own?

TravelWhat's been your experience in Vienna?

Hi ladies, I'm considering visiting Vienna for a few nights in August, but I have had several people advise me to skip Vienna in favor of another city. What's been your experience in Vienna? Definitely doing Budapest and Prague for about 4 nights each, but I have time in between to visit another city for about 3 nights. Recommendations are greatly appreciated!
