Description of the home we are offering for exchange
nice & sunny 60 m² apartment- very close to the city center and to vienna´s green lung – the prater: Comfortably furnished and newly renovated apartment in vienna´s 2nd district.
We love vintage furniture, especially chairs, so the furniture is a mix of all the things we like.
You can easily walk straight to the subway stations within minutes. Subwaystation U1/Nestroyplatz and (U1/U2/Schnellbahn -Praterstern) are 6 min. to walk. Subway station U4/Schwedenplatz is reachable within 10 min. to walk. By foot or from the station you can go straight to the centre, to the Stephansplatz, the Kärntnerstraße and of course, by changing lines, to all the other major sights of the Austrian capital.
If you like jogging, the prater, a big green recreation area is waiting for you only 2 min away.
The apartment ist he perfect homebase for visiting all sights of vienna and exporing the city.
The builing which was bulit in the end of the 19th century is located in a quiet street with supermarket close by.
Vienna´s second district is the most interesting one, you,ll find quite a lot good restaurant, a nice market (Karmelitermarkt) and part of this district is devellopping a lot. the recently finished the new business university which is a must see!!
The apartment has a nice bedroom with double bed, a pull out couch in the living room, and another pull out couch in the cabinet. There is a small bathroom with bathtubem washing machine and a seperated WC. For us, 2nd district is definitly our favourite one in vienna!

Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area
The residential area of Urban Studio (Second District) has developed in recent years into a creative quarter and convinces with a high quality of life.
When we lived in the apartment, we were very happy in the Prater (3min walk - ideal for jogging :) or the Danube Canal (immediately before).
You take about 15 min to the St. Stephens Cathedral, 10min to the city center (First District) or 10 minutes to the beautiful Karmelitermarkt (Second District).
There is a supermarket (3min walk) and shops (5min walk). In the summer I love the atmosphere at the beach "Hermann beach" (don't miss it!), But actually the entire Danube Canal with its beach bars.
In winter, I recommend the Museum Quarter with all its bars and romantic side streets.
