This is what I look like today in portrait mode. 🤩 Life in Vienna was rough for the first 3 months.  The next 2 months got better. Now things are legitimately very good.  This is the challenge I wanted and whelp, I got it!

Thank you to everyone sup
Arrived in Novi Sad, Serbia #travel
Making my way to Belgrade via Szeged, Hungary.  The first building is the opera house from the end of the Austrian-Hungarian Empire. #travel
A short Sunday trip to a forest 20 minutes north of Vienna, along one of the Danube offshoots.
Architectural highlights of Vienna, taken over the last few weeks.
20 minutes north of Vienna is the charming town of Klosterneuburg.  Easy train trip with beautiful hiking and good Schweinrostbraten.
Was here a few weeks ago.  This is not the view from the city center but from a bridge about a 15 walk from the center.
Lunch view.  The building in the foreground was rebuilt by the Rockefeller Foundation in the 1930s.  #history #archaeology #athens #greece
