Austria

Austria has one of the most highly developed transport networks in the European Union with a dense bus and rail network criss-crossing the country. Especially the federal capital Vienna has an excellent public transport infrastructure.

The best time to visit Austria is during the shoulder months, in spring, between April – May, and in fall, between September – October. The weather is excellent for outdoor activities, and the crowd is sparser. The high tourist season between June – August sees excellent weather and sunny days

Outside of the large European cities, you'll rarely run into unsafe situations. The larger cities can host a few exceptions such as petty theft and scam. Be sure to read situations well and get out of situations that make you uncomfortable. While the nightlife of Europe is a great thing to experience, be sure to not carry anything of value and to keep things out of your back pockets.

Hostels. Hostels. Hostels. Not only are they cheap, but you will meet some of the most incredible people and hear the best stories. Even if your budget accounts for some upscale places, we recommend hostel traveling for the experience if nothing else.
Airbnb is also a great way to find accommodation. These can get pretty pricey though if you're looking to stay in city centers.

German is the official language of Austria and an important prerequisite for participating in the working, economic and social life of the country. Croatian, Slovenian and Hungarian are recognised as official languages of autonomous population groups in some regions.
As visitors, try to pick up a few of the key phrases. It's always a good idea to know hello, thank you, and I need help. This isn't only helpful for you, but also is a nice way to set yourself apart from most tourist.

Airbnb, Booking.com and Agoda are great options for finding accommodations in Austria.

From country to country in Europe, you're going to need different power adaptors without a doubt. Save yourself the hassle and grab a universal power adaptor. They'll be great to use all over Europe and will work for your next adventure as well.
What to pack varies depending on what time of year it is. In Vienna, the summers are warm; the winters are very cold, snowy, and windy; and it is partly cloudy year round. Over the course of the year, the temperature typically varies from 27°F to 79°F and is rarely below 13°F or above 89°F. Compression cubes are a great way to not only save space but also to stay organized while on the road. Check them out at trippedtravelgear.com!
