I am from NW England and I am here for 3 months as an au pair. I would like to meet up with people in Vienna (or the area of Niederoesterreich). We can get together, have a few laughs... :)
I joined expat.com on 06 June 2011.
It's an enchanting small town, very Austrian and as I have always preferred small towns, I am naturally at home. Even though it only has a population of 15,000 there is a large shopping centre, plenty of cafes and restaurants, and of everyone i've met, they are friendly. Plus it's only 30 minutes on the train to Vienna.
I haven't had the chance to meet young people in the area.
I spent 8 months teaching children English and it taught me a lot of lessons.
I loved that it was a small town, it was easy to get around and everyone was friendly. It also had a wide variety of shops, entertainment and culture.
However, it was at least 4 hours by bus from any main cities (Madrid/Sevilla) and transport links were difficult.
I study Spanish and German at the University.
Small town, friendly people, on the seaside, hardly ever rains. Beautiful.
Miles from anywhere (although this could be considered an advantage to some!).
Born in York, moved to Chorley when I was 3.
I love the diversity of accents, I don't believe any other country has the same diversity. Also, the countryside. Chorley has good links to Manchester, Liverpool and other major towns nearby.
Chorley has too many Chavs.
