First of all congrats on your selection for the program in Austria - sounds like it was a grueling process! I recall traveling as a kid and it was not easy because there were no direct flights - I mean, I enjoyed it but am not sure about my parents because of picking up luggage and checking it in on the next leg of the flight and so on - I didn't know the sound of music was filmed at that particular castle - how cool!
It's great you were able to have a good experience despite the challenges 💙
Thanks for the kind mention :)
