Austria

Austria - peperoni -
The country once made famous by musical delights such as Mozart and Maria, is not only a land of yodelling and white-peaked mountains. Whether it's the architecture of Salzburg and Vienna, the hip and studenty town of Linz or nature escapades from Spittal, Austria is a brilliant choice of country for you German speakers.
Why should I choose Austria for my year abroad?
Graced with stunning mountains and tranquil lakes, with traditional towns scattered around the country and rather glitzy and cosmopolitan cultural hubs, this country is packed with things to do, people to see and natural habitats to explore.

Small but feisty, this country is a fistful of culture, coolness and kudos.
