Last Thursday, the Christmas Market in Salzburg opened and I was there the very first night - even before the crowds from Germany arrived.
As a first sign of the approaching Christmas season, my mom started to bake cookies last weekend. And the Christmas Markets of Vienna are about to start, too - the most traditional ones in front of the Rathaus City Hall, in the MuseumsQuartier and the Spittelberg area.
Meanwhile, my new employer has finished the website of the Ischgl Skiing Region, just in time for the beginning of this year's skiing season. I will probably go to Ischgl next week myself and try to post more articles on the region in the next coupld of weeks.
The most recent additions to the website, however, deal mostly with towns in the Salzkammergut - a region still shockingly bad in TourMyCountry-coverage.

The TourMyCountry.com Blog finally goes Online!
Ladies and Gentlemen,
I registered this account on blogger.com quite a while ago, but I have been busy working on articles for the main webiste: www.TourMyCountry.com. So, what is this blog about?
Obviously, about my website - but not just about it, the blog should also provide additional or current information about Austria that would not be appropriate for the webiste. One example: There is a breathtaking exhibition in the Galerie Belvedere on Austrian art from around 1880 to 1960 in comparison to styles from that period in Paris: http://www.belvedere.at/jart/prj3/belvedere/main.jart?rel=de&content-id=1173990963421&reserve-mode=active
Otherwise, I will also use the blog to post links to websites I just discovered and that match the field of interest of www.TourMyCountry.com. That is the second reason why I started it. And here is an example of it: http://www.planet-vienna.com/ offers tons of great photographs from the Austrian capital Vienna.
The third reason is for you: I would like to allow interaction with my users. So far, I have received a few very friendly e-mails, but eventually I would like to allow people to get involved with the website beyond that. I am currently thinking about some ways to get there, but so far, posting comments here is probably the easiest way.
Anyways, I hope the blog will be as successful as the main website is starting to become: Yesterday we had more than 200 unique visitors!
