My American friend and roommate (for 1 month) Natasha, who was here for a semester abroad, left 10 days ago. This is her at the Karlsplatz Christmas market on her last evening in Vienna:
Of course we are very sad, that she had to leave, the only good thing about it is, that even now there are still so many things here, that she had left behind...and all of them I had needed already for a longer time, but somehow I never bought them. For example a hair-dryer. Yay! Believe it or not, I haven't used one for almost 1 1/2 years! And an umbrella. Also quite useful.
And - tadaaa - a sackful of change. What means all the golden and copper colored Euro-cent coins, like 50, 20, 10, 5, 2 and 1 cent. She just never used them. At first it looked liek not that much money, and I planned to just change it at a bank or so - but then somehow I changed my mind (instead of the money) and paid 2 whole meals in restaurants with it! The waiters got pretty mad...
Here was the first of those adventures - with Magda in the "Dschungel" im Museumsquartier:
It started with counting the money...every little pile is 1 Euro:
This had attracted the waiter's (still friendly at that point) attention and he took this picture of us:
Apparently he didn't guess that all the coins were there for paying the check afterwards... well, what a surprise, kleine Detektive!!
