This is a short entry about Robert’s adventure in Vienna. On Wednesday 27 February Robert traveled to Vienna to attend the mandatory Fulbright Scholars Conference. He arrived by train around noon and the conference began at 1:30. That afternoon he learned about the history of Fulbright Program.

This is where Robert’s Fulbright Conference took place.

This was the royal residence of the Hapsburg Dynasty.

On the 28th he spent the day with fellow Fulbright Scholars learning about Austrian History, Austrian Culture, and how to live in Austria. At the end of the day the 18 scholars from various academic disciplines were treated to a walking tour of Vienna and then dinner at a very nice Viennese restaurant.

He returned home on Friday 1 March around noon. I met him at the Graz Hauptbahnhof and we went out for lunch. It was fun listening to all the interesting things he learned about being a Fulbright Scholar, about Vienna, and Austria.
