Vienna, our favorite city! ❤️
A city with a rich history, beautiful architecture, and established traditions in art and science. A place that has always been ahead of its time, and which some of the greatest minds from various fields have called home - Mozart, Beethoven, Freud, Klimt, Schrödinger, and many others. 🧠🏡
Austria's capital, as you may know, has been ranked among the top 3 cities to live in worldwide 10 years in a row, which is quite an achievement. Therefore, in this episode, we dig deeper into the concept of what makes Vienna so livable and how such great quality of life is maintained. 🍀
Wait, how could you even measure the livability of a city? 🤔 More about the methodology of such rankings, the strengths, and weaknesses, as well as the usual STS twist on it, you hear in this episode.
