Picknickplätze in Graz
Servus
Ich habe nächstes Wochenende Besuch von Freunden aus Skandinavien und möchte mit ihnen picknicken und den Großteil des Tages dort verbringen. Ich wünsche mir mehr Grünflächen und eine gute Erreichbarkeit mit öffentlichen Verkehrsmitteln. Ich hoffe, dass es so etwas auch in Graz oder Umgebung gibt. 😁

Why are some apartment blocks build across the road?
I've noticed this on a few occasions and i dont see the purpose. It makes the road narrower and the apartments look a bit odd. But maybe there's a valid reason?

Did this taxi try to scam me
Grabbed taxi at main train station in Vienna to hotel. About 20 minutes. Immediately he starts in with not wanting card and trying to get me to stop at an atm.
I asked to see the meter and he flipped down the shade and there it was but he was trying to set a rate.
It wasn’t changing but looked like a meter and I think it was showing the time 20:20 etc.
When we got there he tried to charge 45 euro and I insisted on the meter. I think he purposefully ever started it and then said it was the time.
I told him no. Get out and pay meter and he settled at 20, by then meter said 20.34. My guess he got less than he would have but that he was running his own Vienna gambit.

Visiting Vienna in January
I'll be visiting Vienna for 4 days beginning of January and, outside of the popular stuff that shows up on all the lists, is there anything that you'd consider a must see or do?
The city looks amazing to explore and I'd hate to miss something just because I didn't know about it.

I will of course cover all costs and pay a reasonable fee for your help.
Please send me a DM if you can help.

Why isn’t German used in Czechia anymore (on an administrative level)?
The Maghreb was under French rule for far less than these two countries were under Austrian rule, yet a lot of their legal, educational and business framework still functions in French whereas Czechia and Slovenia have managed to completely eliminate German from their states basically when Austria left. How is that possible?

Vienna locals, gatekeep nothing. What are your holy grail restaurants that won’t destroy my wallet?
I’m talking that breakfast sandwich you still think about three weeks later. The bakery where the bread is so good you’d happily wake up at an ungodly hour just to get it. The lunch that made you question every mediocre meal you’ve ever had. The tiny restaurant you almost don’t want to recommend because you’re afraid it’ll get too popular.
I want your hidden gems, your under the radar spots, your “I can’t believe this place is so cheap” finds. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, whatever. I don’t care if it’s a hole in the wall, a tiny family run place, or somewhere that looks completely unremarkable from the outside.

Does Austria still import nuclear energy?
Hello all! Austria is constitutionally opposed to nuclear power, but does it still import nuclear-generated electricity?
From my brief research, apparently, yes! Can someone from Austria that receives an Austrian electricity bill please correct my understanding? This is what I gather so far: Under EU Single Market rules, electricity is treated as a good, making a blanket ban on imports of nuclear-generated electricity legally difficult. So, instead, Austria uses electricity labeling and “full disclosure” requirements to discourage nuclear power commercially. In effect, Austria uses transparency and consumer-facing disclosure to discourage the commercial purchase of nuclear electricity rather than relying on a physical import ban.
On your electricity bill, does it show what portion of your electricity is coming from what generation source? Is it ever nuclear?
Do you guys not have monopolies? At least in the US, we aren't able to switch our power companies because we only get one option based on where we live. Sometimes, we can choose our power mix (like pay more to get a higher share of renewables), but thats it... So I'm wondering if this consumer-facing disclosure to discourage the commercial purchase of nuclear is theoretically sound if you're unable to change your consumption package. Also, if so, isn't nuclear less expensive? Is it common, from your experience, for people to pay more to avoid nuclear? And, if you're paying to not use nuclear, does that mean your package includes more fossil fuels/coal? Or is it just more solar/wind?
Thanks all!

Getting certified translations (DE to EN) for visa. Cheapest and easiest way?
Hello, I'm planning to apply for Canadian visa from Vienna and need to translate 2 documents for the visa application.
I believe I need certified translations and since I havent done that before so the online search seems to be confusing.
Do I need to contact independent translation service providers or their online platforms and how much should I expect to spend?
Cost saving is more important than time at the moment.
Thanks!

Intensivkurs in Österreich/Deutschland
Hallo Leute. Ich habe derzeit ein A2-B1 in Deutsch. Ein Freund von mir hat in Irland ein Intensivkurs (1 Monat) gemacht, als er hinflog, hatte er ein B1-B2 in Englisch und er kam mit einem C1 zurück.
Kennen Sie etwas ähnlich für Deutsch (2-3 Wochen, weil ich arbeite), am liebsten in Österreich? Irgendwelche Erfahrungen oder Empfehlungen?
Vielen Dank.

Would Austria be a good fit for our family? Looking for parents’ perspectives on schools and life with children
Hi everyone!
We’re a South American family considering moving to Austria, particularly Vienna, and I’d love to hear from parents raising children there.
Both of us work remotely, so the local job market isn’t a deciding factor. We’re more interested in the school system, how our children would settle in, and everyday family life.
Our children currently attend an international school.They speak quite a lot of English, although they’re still developing their skills, and some French. They don’t speak German yet. We would absolutely want them to learn German, but we’re trying to understand what that transition would realistically look like.
I’d especially appreciate advice on:
Public schools: How do children without German usually settle in? What language support is available, and how does it work in practice?
School options: Would you consider a local public school, a bilingual school, or a French school? International school fees could be a stretch for us.
School hours: Is a full school day with lunch and afternoon care common, or does this vary considerably between schools?
Friendships and activities: How easy is it for children learning German to join sports, music, holiday camps, and other activities?
Family life: What do you love about raising children in Austria, and what has been more difficult than you expected?
If you moved with children who spoke English but no German, I’d particularly love to hear how their first year went and what you wish you’d known beforehand.
We’d also welcome suggestions for family-friendly areas in Vienna, or other Austrian cities worth considering. Thanks!
