Event Recap – Los Angeles Hosts Rooftop Party with Austria Tourism

On a warm Spring’s evening, the Los Angeles crew took to the dazzling roof-top of Andaz to have an evening in Austria.

Thanks to Kelley Ferro, our Los Angeles  chapter leader, for putting aside her video camera to talk to us about the chapter’s latest event, #AustriagoestoLA

On a warm Spring’s evening, the Los Angeles crew took to the dazzling roof-top the Andaz West Hollywood to learn about the destination that Lonely Planet called “possibly the best combination of nature and culture on the planet.”

Our kickoff event with Austria, held on the rooftop of the Andaz West Hollywood, was a great success. Our travel community came out from as far as Miami to Ojai to the South Bay to kickoff the summer and celebrate all things Austria.

Austria is such a dynamic destination and it was a thrill to learn more about the country and individual cities from representatives from the Austrian Tourist Office as well as those that flew out from Innsbruck Tourism, Vienna Tourism and Salzburg Tourism. We also welcomed representatives from Austria Airlines to speak about their new LA to Vienna route as well as Journy, a new travel planning app.

Congratulations to Megan Snedden who won the Grand Prize Trip! Flying Austria Airlines, Megan will be taking a guest along with her for a week in Austria, visiting Vienna, Salzburg and Innsbruck, complete with hotel stays in each. We know she will be enjoying the Austrian food, history, culture and spectacular nature on the way. Bring us back some sacher torte?

The event had a great turnout! Some members that joined us for the fun were:
Eric StoenJenn MalkaAngel CastellanosKevin WilkersonKirsten AlanaJustin WalterLayla Nia, Lisa Schwartz, John Rawlinson, Valerie Wilson, Michelle Rodriguez, Trishna Patel and Stuart Brazell.

Since it was our big summer kickoff, it was one of our most highly anticipated events. It was such a pleasure to welcome new faces and reconnect with our consistent members. As always, the events go by so quickly and none of us wanted the party to end! We will continue celebrating with more events this summer, or even better, we should all plan a group trip to Austria.
