Good morning good morning.
It is a travel day.
Today we are leaving Ukraine and flying to Austria.
Austria!
Visiting for the 1st time.
Yes.
And we've wanted to visit Austria for ages.
Especially me because my Grandfather was from Austria and yeah I've never been.
Yeah.
After all of these years of traveling so it is going to be a lot of fun.
Um we've just finished packing and our Airbnb host is actually about to knock any minute.
Anyways, 2 flights to the airport.
Two flights today.
Two flights.
So we'll see you guys in a bit.
Made it the airport here in Lviv (Lviv Danylo Halytskyi International Airport).
Made it to the airport.
Very modern.
Kind of fancy.
It is quite new.
I think it has only been open for a four or five years.
Yeah.
This particular terminal has.
Yeah, and our Airbnb host was super cool.
He drove us to the airport.
I know.
That was awesome.
How rare.
Yeah.
I have to admit though I'm feeling a little bit sleepy.
Like we went to bed late last night because we were packing and cleaning up.
And we woke up early today.
Yeah, So yeah.
I'm like fading and it is only like one thirty maybe.
I know.
I'm exhausted.
Anyways, hopefully some food and drink will perk us up.
Yeah.
There is only it only appears to be one little cafe here in terms of eating before you check
in.
This is the only place we noticed so we've ordered a bunch of different things and yeah
we're hungry for lunch so hopefully we wake up a bit too.
She couldn't even wait for me to come back.
Sam wandered off in search of b-roll and in the meantime our food arrived so I wasn't
going to wait around.
And in case any of you don't know what b-roll this is basically just filming silent clips.
Yeah, Around the airport.
But this is interesting.
We actually got savory strudel and I always thought strudel was just a dessert you know
stuffed with apples but I just ordered one with salmon and broccoli and melted cheese
on top and it comes with pesto.
It is really good.
It is good.
You've already ate half of it.
Hahaha.
How about yours?
Mine is beef strudel and if you look down here you can see what it actually looks like
before it has been destroyed.
Yeah, it looks quite lovely.
Is that like a little pesto olive oil trail?
Yeah, it is pesto yeah.
Yum.
Alright, let's take a bite of this.
So mine I think it has beef and mushrooms and other ingredients and you can tell it
is nice and warm.
You can feel the heat rising.
That is pretty good.
Yeah.
It is tasty but it is a small portion.
I think we may need to visit another restaurant once we go through security.
FYI.
Probably.
Oh, and I also got beer.
Yeah.
Yep.
It was cheap on the menu and I don't think I've tried this kind so apparently it is called
they say up top.
This is the original Ukrainian beer.
Alright.
High expectations then.
High expectations.
My last beer in Ukraine.
I found that a lot of restaurants the price of beer was quite similar to the price of
water so I found myself drinking a lot of beer while I was here.
It is like you know if you have the choice between the two and they're the same price
of course you're going to go for the beer.
Haha.
Uh, it is nice.
It is pretty light.
Uh, refreshing cold.
Yeah, alright well I'm putting the camera down so I can eat.
Just before we forget we have dessert coming so.
Okay.
We're going to share dessert.
Dessert is here.
And technically this is supposed to be for me.
It has arrived.
Audrey is like I don't want dessert and yet look at her go.
No, no no.
I said.
She's eating the first bite.
I said I don't want my own.
I'll have a bite.
What do you guys think of that?
Whenever we order whenever I order dessert and Audrey says she doesn't want it.
She says I'll take a bite and you know what one bite means?
It means she gets literally half.
That is how it works in our relationship.
Haha.
And how is the cheesecake by the way?
It is alright.
Alright.
It is a different kind of cheesecake.
Okay.
So as per usual we're early.
First in line.
Not just first in line.
The only people in the line.
So assumed maybe it would open what like 3 hours before but I think it is going to be
2.
I think it is going to be more like 2 or two and a half.
So we have a pretty big hurry up and wait session.
But one of the cool things is we are flying with Austrian Airlines for the first time.
First time.
The very first time.
So it is always exciting to fly with a new airline.
Poor little thing.
She's having a hard time staying awake.
Urgh.
This is meal number 2.
We made it through security unscathed.
Unscathed.
It sounds like our flight to Vienna maybe delayed they said.
Yeah.
We won't make our connection.
Which would be very very uncool because we have such a tight connection.
Yeah.
Only less than 30 minutes and the thing too is uh a little behind the scenes is we are
actually going to a conference and we're going to be filming it.
So we are the people that are going to be in charge of filming the conference so for
us to be late would not be cool.
Haha.
But it is out of our hands so yeah.
Fingers crossed though.
Fingers crossed.
La pizza.
And as soon as I walk by this restaurant I was looking at what they had on display and
it was a no brainer.
The pizza looked delicious so but I think the assumed that Sam is eating both slices
and one of those is most definitely mine.
I could have both slices.
Na nah.
That is not an issue.
It is an issue.
And again going back to the point earlier.
Carlsberg was about the equivalent of a dollar and water was a dollar fifty so again I'm
drinking more beer before my flight.
Cheers to that.
So bright.
It is so bright.
It is so bright she says.
As the sun shines through the glass.
I feel like this is a grumpy vlog.
I've had maybe like five hours of sleep so I'm not my peppiest.
When Audrey is tired or hungry she let's the world know.
Yeah.
Anyways, we haven't told you guys why we're going to Austria.
Yeah, I guess we should talk about that.
So every year there is one travel related conference that we attend and that is the
Social Travel Summit.
Last year it was held in Scotland and this year it is in Kitzbuehel in Austria so that
is where we're going.
We're flying to Vienna, Innsbruck and then taking a bus or like some kind of shuttle.
Yes, exactly.
Okay Sam what are you most looking forward to at STS?
At STS the Social Travel Summit.
Well, actually I'm most looking forward to just meeting up with my buddies.
We have a lot of friends in the industry.
Seeing his friends.
A lot of other YouTubers a lot of other travel bloggers so yeah I just want to hangout with
my friends.
Airport update.
Aw awe.
We are still here.
We are still in Ukraine.
Womp diddy womp womp.
So our first flight has been delayed over 40 minutes.
I'm thinking it is more like an hour.
They are saying 40 minutes but anyway that means we've already missed our connection.
But the good news.
There is some good news to this story.
They actually just came by and rebooked us on the eight o'clock flight tonight.
So we'll be arriving super late about eleven o'clock.
Originally we were supposed to arrive at like six or seven.
But anyways it is good news that we're going to be arriving tonight so we'll miss the opening
gala dinner or whatever.
No, the gala is tomorrow night but we miss the opening party.
Oh, okay.
That is what we're missing.
So it is not so bad.
It is not so bad.
We're still going to see everybody and we'll still be able to film the event so yeah.
Yeah.
So Audrey would you say you travel in comfort or in style?
Comfort or in style.
Are you kidding me?
Have you seen my hair?
Have you seen I'm wearing pajamas.
Have you seen this ridiculous pillow.
Haha.
Alright, so quick update.
Quick update.
We're in Vienna (Vienna International Airport) and we have like a 3 hour layover now because
we missed our original flight.
Um, so we're going to do I had a little something going on there.
Haha.
We're going to have some dinner so we got um two different sandwiches.
Yeah.
There is mozzarella and salami and a chocolate chip muffin.
Yum.
Over here healthy juice.
I got an elderflower banana strawberry smoothie which is really good.
Oh, nice.
That is awesome.
You know what?
There is no way we would have made our connection.
We had to do Immigration, we had to go through security and it took forever.
There was huge lines for both so I mean it was fairly efficient but it took a while.
There is no way we would have made our tight connection.
But that means we get to have dinner and chill out.
And this airport is pretty cool.
Like this is there is some nice places to hangout here if you can see over there is
people chilling.
It is like a little work stations.
Yeah.
I'm starting to get tired myself.
Oh my gosh.
Look at that cheese.
That is a bit gross.
Seriously, shouldn't every airport have something like this.
Look at this.
Your own little office space.
Our bags are over here and the best part free internet and free charging stations.
Exactly.
Well done Vienna.
Final flight.
We have to scan ourselves in.
What did you just say to me?
We're the last ones on the plane.
Haha.
We were so distracted playing on our phones they boarded so quietly.
Yeah.
Well, it must be I have a feeling it is a really small flight.
Oh my gosh.
Look at the leg room.
Das Bestes.
We have what?
Why Das bestes?
We have exit seats.
And best of all?
That is a closeup.
Woah.
Woah woah.
And best of all it is only a 40 minute flight.
What do you think about that?
I'm ready to be there.
So we've arrived.
So far our bags came out like five minutes after landing.
No even.
We've arrived.
Efficiency.
And what?
We have like an hour and a half drive.
I think.
Yep.
Almost there.
Haha.
So we've arrived at last.
At long last.
We're exhausted.
Long day.
It is almost midnight I think.
Yeah, we're exhausted and I have nothing to say.
I just want to go to bed.
So we're going to end it here and we'll see you guys next time.
Ciao ciao.
