Vienna is waiting for you...
16 students from 6 countries took part in our summer program from June 16 to July 24. Besides classes on two different levels we offered many exciting cultural trips and excursions to selected places of interest in Austria and Germany. Here you’ll find some reports written by students.
"On early Sunday morning, July 20, we took the train to Vienna. It was exciting to be able to visit the Austrian capital shortly before the end of our summer program.
After having left our stuff at the hostel, we took an urban train and started to discover Vienna. There, we went to a lot of different places, like churches, historical monuments, tourist locals and many other interesting places. After a time appreciating those views, we went to have lunch. We separated and each one went to different places to eat.
It was already 6 pm and we would have only one more thing to do after that long day: visit Sisi's Castle. We went there, looked at the whole wonderful Castle and enjoyed each room of it. We had a lot of fun and after that beautiful and long day we came back to the hostel.
We would have one more day to spend in Vienna, so we were awake early. After we ate, we got our bags, went to the train station and there we put them in the lockers, so then we would not need to carry those heavy bags for the whole day.
We were ready to a shopping day in Vienna and we went to the town and there were many stores and places where we could buy nice things. We enjoyed this day a lot, spending hours shopping, eating, laughing, having fun, getting to know new things, new people, different customs and many other things.
After two wonderful days of enjoyment and fun we were heading back to Bogi again, but now happier, knowing that those moments would forever be in our minds."
