We made a trip to Vienna from February 28 to March 6 mainly to participate in the European Congress of Radiology but also visit the city and its particularities .To finance part of this trip, we organized many events (raffle, evening, sales of cakes). We shared an apartment with 6 : Emilie Dieudonné, Eva Baptista, Cloé Da Costa, Morgane Auglans, Chloé Bony, Alizé Cros.

The congress :
We really enjoyed the opening ceremony, especially because there was a huge orchestra and a singer !
Level 1 conferences such as those on obesity and pediatric emergencies were affordable and therefore very interesting for our future professions.
However, some higher level conferences such as cardiac risk patients were far too complicated for us.
Culinary specialities :
During this trip we were obviously able to taste many Viennese specialities.
For me Chloé Bony first of all, i loved the goulash that i had at the restaurant. Goulash is a typical dish made of beef meat with paprika accompanied by a ball of bread. My favorite specialty is the cheese-sausage stuffed hot dog that you can buy everywhere in small stands.
Finally i was able to taste lots of Viennese chocolate with an unsweetened cream and the apple strudel at the central café which i did not like because it was too sweet.
For me, Emilie Dieudonné, my first taste of a typical Viennese dish is a pork cutlet served with a cold potato salad with garlic and onions, I loved it but it was very hearty for my little stomach lol!
I then tasted a Viennese hogdog, it was super good too and very greasy yum! I was then able to drink a Viennese coffee, I did not find it better than in France, a bit disappointing.
VISITS
We were able to visit the city center of Vienna with its Saint Etienne cathedral and the museum of illusion. We were also at the oldest zoo in Europe as the weather was nice it was good.
Finally we visited the castle of Sissi, with audio guide in French, it was very well explained, unfortunately we did not visit the gardens.
The last evening we went to the oldest funfair but it was cold.
For me Chloé Bony, i prefered the day when we visited the city on foot and the many monuments such as the Hundertwasserhaus district but also the parliament, the karlish and also the belvedere palace. The Nashmarkt market was huge and i liked that a lot too.
For me, Emilie Dieudonné, my favorite activities were the zoo, then with Eva we went shopping and I got a tattoo, a great memory! I also loved going out with my class to join the Dutch class, it was a great experience! I really liked the coloured streets, everything was too mimi ahah !
In the end, this trip seemed too short. The city of Vienna and its architecture are magnificent. In addition, participating in the radiology congress has enriched us with knowledge for our future professions.
We will keep many memories of these good times spent together.
