WELL. I’M EXHAUSTED. This past Monday was a holiday, so we didn’t have class, and then tuesday and wednesday we had International Week at FH! As part of getting credit for IW, we had to attend a certain amount of lectures given by visiting professors from all over the world! Lots of the lectures focused…

I wouldn’t Passau the opportunity
My title game is still going strong. #getonmylevel Weeelllll our original plans to go to Munich this weekend did not pan out. BUT we were not about to waste time. So we still went to Germany! We went to Passau, which is essentially still Austria. Even when I bought my ticket at the trainstation,…
its been tour-ific!
So titles are not my strong suit. I get it! This week I have been to 2 different tours in Steyr. The first was in “The Tunnel Of Rememberance”. You may vaguely remember this being mentioned – it is a museum about WWII in Steyr, located inside the old Air Raid shelter tunnels under Schloß…
busy birthday in budapest
this is a full post. hopefully it doesn’t take me more than 3 hours to complete – but it’ll depend on how good my internet connection is. So we’ll have to see! On thursday me and a group of 11 other FH students left for Vienna at 8:15, where we caught a bus to Budapest!…
conGraz on a great trip!
We stayed in Austria this time! This weekend was a National Holiday in Austria to celebrate the beginning of May. On friday in Steyr was the raising of the May Pole! This is a big festive event – in Stadtplatz they hung flags and banners, they decorated the bridges with small Christmas Trees, and there…

Well well well, what have we gotten ourselves into?! If you follow me on Instagram, you will already be well aware that I was in Prague this past weekend – because I posted about 5 times, almost in a row. Apologies for that, by the way! On Friday, me and Ireland got on a 6:15am…
we didn’t even get ice cream?!
In the midst of many weekend trips planned for the future, sometimes its nice just to relax and spend the day wandering. There are plenty of small towns close to Steyr that offer a day worth of interest at the very least. And so, in an attempt to utilize the time available to me in…
i’m just czech-ing in.
This post is for my dad. Another travel weekend was had this past weekend as we readied to go to Cesky Krumlov, Czech Republic. We were planning on leaving Sunday morning really early to catch a train to Krumlov. It takes about 4 hours to get there, so we decided to take the 6:15 train…
this post is Lactose free!
I have never been good at puns. They are a source of humor that vastly escapes me. However, I have a couple that I will save for the end of this post. If you follow me on Instagram (@ekpattz_) then you will have already read them, and so I apologize for forcing you to read…
it’s all greek to me!
Well ladies and gentlemen, here is the anticipated post about my Easter Break Vacation. I use the word “vacation” lightly, because I didn’t do much relaxing – I did a lot of moving around haha. I left Vienna on a plane to Belgrade, Serbia at 9:30am on monday. With a 2 hour layover in Belgrade,…
what are the chances?
WELL this blog has been quiet!! I haven’t posted for 2 weeks! That is crazy to me, because I feel like I’ve been doing stuff, but none of that stuff is showing up. And then I remembered: it’s because I’ve been too lazy to write it down. And I have to do that now. Dang…
3 tickets later…
Howdy y’all. How’s it shaking? Last week I had lectures on monday/tuesday/thursday, so I stayed home later in the week as apposed to last week where I was done on wednesday. And I have definitely been bitten by the travel bug because I was itching to go somewhere for the weekend! But I was a…
a new perspective
Wells, this is my second week of lectures, which is crazy to me. And I will say that things are set up VERY differently here than at home. For starters, lectures only happened once a week. And they can last anywhere from 1-4 hours. Some lectures don’t even happen every week! Take my Austrian Culture…
