Frimpong in Vienna - by Erich Mangl

Pictures by ERICH MANGL

~~~~~~~~

I have just arrived to Vienna, it’s a very hard task to tell you in few words something meaningful about this town. It would be banal to mention only some of the world famous features of this capital city, that is surely one of the most fascinating of Europe.I have not any intention to copy a tourist guide book and to list the monuments, the historical places… I think it’s better to share with you my minimalist impressions and the pictures of me that my host is going to take So, once again I arrived here inside a cardboard box and, as soon as the cover was opened and I could stretch my paws, I saw this apparently disquieting dark character, who took me out and immediately put me inside his bag! This is another exciting aspect of my way of travelling, meeting my new hosts and sharing a few days of their life. Definitely it’s the best way to grasp the spirit of a townMy Viennese host is Erich Mangl, the man in black…I’m sure I won’t get bored with him. If you are so kind to dedicate a little attention to my adventures you’ll follow me in this approach to the symbol of “mitteleuropean “ culture, Vienna! ******* Click HERE to visit Erich's galleries, you'll realize that , once again, I have been lucky in finding my hosts

Une jolie galerie pleine d'imagination, Frimpong à bien de la chance de partir à l'aventure et découvrir des pays. Il n'a pas perdu son temps à Vienne il a profité de la neige et s'est fait une amie. Bravo, c'est génial.

What a fabulous time you look to have had in Vienna Frimpong. I have thoroughly enjoyed looking through you delightful pictures and at the same time learning a little about this fantastic city. I don't know where you find the energy to keep up...and you always look so happy. Maybe it's the coffee, cakes & fine company! Your young companion here also looks adorable. A delightful gallery..I look forward to your next destination with eagerness. Bon Voyage..Rob

Yeah!. Nice to see this gallery. Awesome indeed. Little Dascha gives you a charming "aura". Be thankful of your hosts. They look as happy as you so we should try these too. Seriously a great work. My congratulations to Dascha because tshe stoles the movie. Matias, Chile (Warm weather in here by the way)
