Vienna Calling

I had a great time in Vienna meeting people like Casey Fenton (founder of CS) Tripple T, Gadget and lots of other “celebrities” in CS. I also made a lot of new friends and found a new wonderful city.

The Friday was mainly spent with the ambassadors forum for CS, listening and learning on how the organization works, what the future plans are and what the main goals are currently. I was definitely impressed with how professional the lead team of CS is!
In the evening we had a big party, they had booked a whole club only for CS, I heard rumors that we where 700 people there… and another 300 in cue just to get in, crazy!

During Saturday I was chilling with my host during most of the day, Anna was just a wonderful person and we had so much to talk about. I the evening I met up with the CS crowd and we went to this nice little restaurant “12 Apostelkeller” where we had a “real” Austrian dinner with lots of pork and sauerkraut… interesting but almost a bit too salty for my taste. During the night we had a tour of the city monuments… was quite cool to go and see everything at midnight… the monuments where lit up by lights and our guide was very knowledgeable… fun!

On Sunday there was a CS barbecue and I went swimming in Danube… cold but not too bad… warm up for the canoeing trip in August :D.
Monday was vegan day for me… no meet in sight for the whole day… and Tuesday… well we that lead to a hospital visit as you could see in my last post :-S

I could also mention the catacombs under the cathedral in Vienna… they actually give tours showing the tourists bones from old skeletons there… not quite sure how tasteful that really is but I guess it does give a nice revenue to the church coffers…
