Gabe in Austria: November 2010

The goal is to live in a small Austrian village with my Austrian wife and our 4 yr old while learning everything about this beautiful corner of the world. We will live on the second floor of my in-law's house in a two bedroom apartment while skipping around in flowery fields like the one on "The Sound of Music". Well, maybe not the skipping part:)

The village is called Windischgarsten. Located in the lower half of Upper Austria, it is an amazingly beautiful area of the Alps known for skiing, hiking and biking. I don't have any local friends, I haven't learned the language, and I have no idea where I'll work. This could get really interesting. No problem right?

Hiking Above the Village

Hi all. Well, this was my first year without a Halloween. Maybe next year right? Anyway, the family went for a hike instead. My father-in-law and I went a little further than the rest. We ended up at the "sender". It's a radio tower on a mountain overlooking Windischgarsten. Gorgeous views and a great day.
