It has been 3 years since I moved to Vienna. How do I feel? Strange! I came for 3 months and after 3 years I am still here. You probably think that I met the love of my life in those first 3 months of living here, who changed my mind and convinced me to stay here. No. That’s not the reason. My life is not so romantic. You might think that I decided to stay here because of the economical crisis in Greece. No. That’s not the reason. There isn’t one reason actually but there are many.

I decided to stay here because I wanted to do something different, I wanted to see how life abroad would be. I somehow felt that I had to bring myself a step further. I had a project whose name was “self-improvement”. Easier said than done, but certainly an ideal to strive towards. I was curious and believed that this experience is worth having. And it is. I was right. Generally, I am very aware of what I am doing, what I want in life and what is good for me. But things don’t go always as planned, because we sometimes depend on others and because there are plenty of things that are out of our control.

Now what? What I have managed? Where have I failed? Where do I see myself in the future? That kind of questions are an endless inner monologue. You also ask yourself that kind of questions from time to time. We all do it, it’s normal and mature. Well, I actually aim to finish my studies and then I will reevaluate things, set priorities, contemplate the future, and make seriouuuus decisions, as usual.♥

A Taste of Tradition: Imagine sinking your fork into layers of moist chocolate cake, sandwiched together with a sumptuous layer of apricot jam, and enveloped in a glossy chocolate glaze. That’s the Sacher Torte experience, a harmonious blend of flavors that has stood the test of time.

Origins and Legacy: Our story begins in 1832, in the heart of Vienna, Austria. It was here that Franz Sacher, a young apprentice chef, created the first iteration of what would later become the Sacher Torte. Tasked with concocting a dessert fit for royalty, Sacher rose to the occasion, crafting a masterpiece that would earn its place in culinary history.

What would Sacher Torte be like without Vienna and what would Vienna be like without Sacher Torte?

Some things are so connected to each other, that you cannot even imagine them apart.
You can find Sacher Torte in other countries but they are done exquisitely in the country they originated from.

Today we said “Let’s pretend that we are tourists” and jumped into the cafe of the Hotel Sacher. When the sky turns grey, a good friend and that famous piece of chocolate cake with whipped cream next to it is all I need to feel happy.
