About CopenhagenDanes are said to be the happiest people in the world and the Danish capital, Copenhagen, is no exception – the place where you also will find Copenhagen Hospitality College.

Not only is Copenhagen characterised as the world’s most liveable city, it also offers a unique blend between the throbbing pulse of a cosmopolitan city and the charming old quarters, featuring fascinating architecture along with gripping fairytales. Besides being designed for life, Copenhagen is a city large enough for every kind of lifestyle and mindset, but small enough to make the bicycle your primary means of transport. It is no wonder that the Copenhageners love their bikes, as the city is one of the most bicycle-friendly cities in the world, offering favorable cycling conditions and making it possible to go from one end of the city to another in only thirty minutes.

With more than 94,000 students enrolled in the city’s largest universities and institutions, Copenhagen is also home to a large number of young people from all over the world who have lost their hearts to the charming metropolis. The city has something to offer for every taste; whether you like the urban pulse in the cobbled streets, reading a good book on a bench in one of the green parks, chilling on the three beaches, shopping for classic modern design or enjoying an outstanding dinner on a budget.

In short, Copenhagen is a city for life!

Copenhagen WeatherDenmark has a temperate climate, moderated by the warm Gulf Stream. The weather in Copenhagen is subject to low-pressure systems from the Atlantic, resulting in quite unstable conditions throughout the year. The city has mild spring months and warm summers with slightly higher rainfalls from July to September. The winters are normally cold with temperatures around the freezing point and sometimes snow.

About Vienna

Vienna

Tourism College MODUL is located in Vienna; the capital and largest city of Austria with a population of about 2 million. Vienna is renowned as a city of music, art, and culture, ranking as one of the most attractive cities worldwide. With a thriving economy, a stable political system, Austria’s beautiful countryside (not only the Austrian Alps) and its cultural diversity, this is a city of high quality of life for both locals and tourists.

It is hard to imagine a more liveable city than Vienna. This is a metropolis where regulars sit in cosy coffee houses; where Beisln (bistro pubs) serve delicious brews, wines and traditional food; where talented chefs are taking the capital in new culinary directions; and where an efficient transport system will ferry you across town from a restaurant to a post-dinner drink in no time. The cafés in Vienna are not only a place to rest but an institution in themselves. To sit and read a newspaper while enjoying a strong espresso and a cake is, according to UNESCO, a cultural spare time occupation.

In short, Vienna is safe, it has a lot of bicycle tracks and it even has its own droll sense of humour.

Vienna WeatherAustria’s climate is generally moderate, mild and reliably, as it follows the four distinct seasons. Vienna lies within a transition of oceanic climate and humid continental climate. The city has warm summers with average high temperatures of approximately 24 to 33°C. The winters are relatively dry and cold with average temperatures around the freezing point. Spring and autumn are mild.
