Tips and Advice on Austria from Your Fellow South African Expats

Socializing with fellow South Africans is an important facet of living abroad and can be a huge stepping stone in getting to know the Austrian mentality and way of life. South Africans in Austria are a part of our community, calling cities such as Salzburg, Innsbruck, Vienna, and many others home. You can use InterNations to look for fellow South Africans in Vienna, for example.
