What is your favorite part of Austria?
What is your favorite part of Austria?
the part where it's bombed to the ground and its inhabitants exterminated
Salzburg but only cause that's the only part i've visited, i hope i can visit more in the future.
does Italian culture bleed into Austria at all?
Same. Also some of my ancestors come from there :)
Vienna because it's only region I'm aware of, heard that it has one of the best cinema museums in the world
This
Carinthia because they’re swarthoid bvlls
Südtirol
Wine culture/catholicism
Have you been to Germany yet? If so, how close would you say it is to Germany in terms of culture?
Alpine germany is close, but not the same either, austria is closer.
t. has been to BaWu and Bavaria
still seething from 1683 lmfao
I meant like is Austria similar to Germany?
And do you prefer BaWu or Bavaria?
Tyrol because they have some gay af dialect
he mad
None of it, I don't like spiders
Ganz Wien Baby
what? you mean alto adige?
Tyrol. Salzburg is very cozy too.
Braunau am Inn definitely
Yes
I think it's unfortunate that they don't want to preserve the Hitler building
>If so, how close would you say it is to Germany in terms of culture?
Austria is much more Eastern European then Italian
Isn't Austria more German than Eastern European? Even Czech Republic isn't really Eastern European
yes, I mean apart from that.
Austria started of a independent part of Bavaria. That's why the dialect is even today practically the same.
Out of all neighbours of Austria, Italy is the most distant one.
How do Switzerland (German parts only), Austria, and Germany compare?
And what are your favorite parts of Germany?
What is Burgerland like? It has the lowest HDI of any Austrian state (still pretty high though), so it interests me most
no healthcare
shootings all the time
and more
South Tyrol
>How do Switzerland (German parts only), Austria, and Germany compare?
compare in terms of what?
vibe
Koroška
Sydney
free trentino
Tirol :)
alice springs
who is hotter, German girls or Austrian girls?
Italian restaurants are everywhere. There's even more than turk/arab restaurants.
>they offer 6 pasta dishes and 2 salads
>umm ok we just sat down, so let's have a coffee and move on to a different place
>NO YOU MUST LEAVE IF YOU DON'T ORDER FOOD
God damn waiters, this is why I never tip in Italian restaurants.
based Austrian
I want to go to Austria next year (going to Germany this year), where would you recommend? I'm 24 and like food, nightlife, people watching, and small amounts of sight seeing.
Generally, Swiss people are more reserved while Germans are more direct. Austrians are something in between
Does that fade once you get to know them?
BURGERLAND :DDD
NOT Koroška.Imagine having a town of 100k as your capital and voting for literal Nazis. Imma finna go with Wien (Dunaj) because it's the only settlement in Austria that doesn't feel like a small town.
how much are you supposed to tip in Austria?
Yes. Almost anyone has a different behavior when they're around good friends as opposed to co-workers or strangers in general
Sud Tirolo, please.
You usually round up to the next €, or just 10%. But don't tip like 5€, that's too much. We are a society where everyone is equally poor, so it's not expected that you give too much.
If you have a meal with your gf for 42,60€ and you give 45€, then it's already a generous tip.
One thing you should know: pretty much all places have the common tip jar, where at the end of the shift all money is counted and every surplus (=tips) is distributed among all the workers, even the ones working in the kitchen.
Tyrol, for the goldmines
As a burger, I'm used to tipping 20% so that doesn't bother me. At bars though, I tip 1 USD per drink. How does tipping for drinks work in Germany/Austria?

It was slazburg until this winter, but it was extremely crowded, even at the end of the season.
I have to find an other place to ski
Steiermark for their pumpkin seed oil
BASED
Tyrol.
>How does tipping for drinks work in Germany/Austria?
At bars you don't have to tip, they just don't give you change back. The philosophy is: if you want your money back, you will be ignored for the rest of the evening.
Waiters can survive comfortably on their salaries, they don't need you. The only friendly ones are students who are working as waiters during summer.
what a coincidence, Slovenian Steiermark is also renowned for its pumpkin seed oil!
so I cant put down an extra Euro after every 2 drinks or so?
Let's say a beer costs EUR 3.60 and you pay EUR 3.60. Will they still ignore you or does it only happen when you give 4 and want 40 cents back?
You can tip 100€ for every minute you stand in the bar if you want, nobody will say a word. I thought you are asking me with how little you can get away, when in fact you want to know the maximum amount you can tip. Please stay as long as you can. Thank you USA, you are my best friend. You are the piece keeper, you are the legend.
>Will they still ignore you or does it only happen when you give 4 and want 40 cents back?
If you give the exact amount, then no problem. But if you are trying to get 40 cents back on a busy night, then good luck.
Of course if you are the only customer there and looking at them with an expecting look on your face, then they can't be dicks and you will get your 40 cents back.
Happens in restaurants a lot, too. They just smash all the money into their gigantic waiter purse and say DANKEEEEEE super loud and prolonged, while turning around. Most people do not have the courage to order him back to the table and ask for the change.
you're a Serb living in Vienna, aren't you? Your English seems to suggest it.
>you're a Serb living in Vienna, aren't you? Your English seems to suggest it.
Neither serb, nor vienna, nor does my english suggest it. I know German, English, and 10 words of Czech.
What do you think is serb about my writing?
>DAAANKEEEE
>Bittesehr *macht Faust im Sack*
Makes sense on a busy night, especially when it is known. Would be a dick move to tourists who don't know it though
>You are the piece keeper, you are the legend.
this came off as a thing an ex-yu person would say, and there are always Austrian flags posting in ex-yu
So I wasn't supposed to see this video?
>so it's not expected that you give too much.
also this, forming the subjunctive with 'that' is a very distinct Serbocroatian linguistic trait and I figured a German would sooner opt for 'to' in such a case, though in retrospect, it was just a coincidence of word choice in English. Dunno the meme you're referring to though.
so just letting them keep the yuro change is a sufficient tip?
No, we translate "dass" with "that" quite often.
Carinthia and tyrol. Burn the rest.
Burgenland (the Hungarian part)
Tirol of course. From Innsbruck to Bozen and from Landeck to Kitzbühel we da best
Why is a Hungarian being this based???
holy based
the croatian part, gradišće
