As a viennese citizen I travelled almost all over the world when I was younger. During Coivid I bought a caravan and started discovering my country Austria with it. Best choice ever. You simply never can get enough of crystal clear lakes with drinking quality, castles with endless history and battles behind them, beautiful mountains with the best ski slopes in the entire world with Austrian made, safest cable cars on the planet. You find a good Restaurant no matter where you are, even on top of almost every larger mountain. Getting around is super easy and convenient - car, train or bus - all three of them will bring you even to the most remote places. What I personally think is unmatched, is how CLEAN it is. I've only figured this out after being to many other places. Almost EVERY rural town looks like a painting... People always talk about the beauty of Hallstadt, which has been COPIED somewhere in China. The truth is: eventhough its considered the most beautiful town on the planet: this is just an ordinary place in Austria! 😊

Das ist das beste Video was ich von ihm gesehen habe. Ich würde mir wünschen, dass er mehr von diesem Land preis geben würde.

I think it depends from which perspective you see that. I did not enjoy my time as a teenager in Vienna so I went out and used to live in Germany - which was okay but it was the trampoline to Asia for me which I enjoyed even more.

The temperature range you gave for the climate seems a bit narrow. In Vienna -8 seems realistic as the lower end but the upper end would be like 38. For the alps 27 as the upper end seems realistic but winters can definitely drop well below -8 in some regions and also used to in Vienna before climate change really started kicking in. For such a small country the geography separates it into so many micro climates it's hard to sum up in one temperature range. Definitely don't move to Vienna if you can't handle humid heat dancing a waltz with thunderstorms. An acquaintance from Tunisia recently told me 35 C° in Vienna feels like 50 in north Africa. Vienna's climate is particularly unpredictable since it sits in a basin right where some of the larger european climate zones meet. If you really want to experience all seasons come in April and you might get them all in a single week.

I live in Vorarlberg (Western Austria), and i dont think the living cost in Germany is higher than in Austria. What i noticed is that for eg a bag of lemons costs 60-70 cents in Germany, whereas in Austria is around €1. Thats why some Austrians tend to do groceries in Germany (Lindau) coz its cheaper there. Other than that, in Austria we get 14x salary per year, whereas in Germany normally they get only 12x per year, and moreover, we do have a lot of German people working in Austria, since they (my friends) said that they get more money here in Austria than in Germany beside the better quality of living.

Furthermore Germany just has more big cities and those are of course always more expensive.

@Oachlkaas

Germans always like to say that, which i assume is because the information flow is quite one sided. Austrians know a lot more about Germany than germans to about Austria, simply because germany is so much bigger. Germans just assume that since Austrians speak the same language it's the same culture, but that's not really the truth. Of course there's overlap, but that overlap tends to end somewhat close behind the border already. Similarities exist with Bavaria, though not even all of Bavaria because it's made up of three parts basically. "Bavaria proper", Franconia and Swabia and similarities for the most part only exist with Bavaria proper. Especially Upper Austria is quite similar to Bavaria since there's no geography that seperates them. But in the end "Bavaria proper" is only a small part of a country that is much bigger, has a lot more to offer and is not really similar to Austria. Czechia and Slovenia are actually quite a bit more similar to Austria than germany is. The people, their mentality, their behaviour is way more similar than the germans who tend to live by the rules and are quite straight forward - which are qualities rarely found among Austrians.

Another upside it that people sometimes misunderstand you live in Australia. That way they think you live in a cool place.

As an Austrian, there is a bunch things wrong with the information given in this video. The lower cost of living than Germany especially, which is simply wrong. It should be said as well, that Austrians are one of the most unfriendly people in the world. I am from Salzburg, beautiful city, but it is hard to meet more unfriendly people. The cities are generally foreigner friendly, but the experience in the countryside can be very different. I grew up in the Salzburg/ Upper Austria counrtyside and a lot of old and less educated people are still racist, af there. (Especially if you are black or muslim) Citizenship is a very important point as well, it is really hard to get. Politics are getting less foreigner friendly too. (FPÖ and ÖVP) So please do your research before moving here, there a lot of better countries to move to, if you are not fixed on the Austrian culture. Would love to see you here though.
