Welcome to American in Vienna! I’m Michelle.
I’m from Connecticut, USA, but am currently living in the beautiful city of Vienna, Austria.

How did I end up here?
My husband Aldin got a job in Austria’s capital, and so I decided to leave the familiar and comfortable and step into a new life in this European city.
Why Did I Start Blogging?
During my first year here I made to sure to explore and discover as much as I could in Vienna. I encountered so many great things, ate so much good food, realized things about myself and culture I decided to start a blog and share with the world my findings.
What Else Happened…
I created Women of Vienna — an English-speaking resource and community for international and local women living in Vienna and the surrounding areas.
More About Me
I would say my passions are travel, food and photography. I especially enjoy going out to brunch, biking in the city with my husband, and attending the many events that happen in Vienna. I also work at a Montessori kindergarten as a Teacher’s Assistant and love it!
