| With clean streets, polite locals and rolling hills, Austria is indeed as boring as it sounds. |

| I can’t really remember. Probably as pure as a mountain stream. |
|
| The hills are alive. But it’s with insects and German tourists, rather than the sound of music.
Austria is, however, a beautiful country. The magnificent hills are conducive to photography, hiking and acute coronary failure.
The only thing that Austria (and indeed, most German speaking countries) is not conducive to, is comedy. Hence the short nature of my article.
For a unique tour of Vienna, I recommend getting your passport stolen and trying to find your embassy. I can say from experience, that this is one of the best ways to see most of the city. |
