A few days ago I stumbled upon the following BBC article about how Viennese people love to grumble about their city. The author’s perspective is interesting because she is not the first to tell me this – even my boss’ mother described Austrians as a people who love to grumble about their country even though they would never leave it!
In my two short days in Vienna, I didn’t think that the Viennese were particular grumpy about their city. Perhaps it was because I couldn’t understand the conversations going on around me (as the author of the article could), but perhaps it was also because I was with funky young people.
Anyway, just thought it would be interesting to post this article and see if any people who have traveled to Vienna could comment either way.
