Enjoying Life

Wenn Sie **HU** (gesprochen Hjuu) täglich zwanzig Minuten lang mit Liebe singen, beginnen sich die Bande und Fesseln zu lösen, welche die Seele einengen. Nicht alle auf einmal, sondern sehr langsam, in einem Tempo, das Sie verstehen und annehmen können. Während diese Bindungen gelöst werden, wächst die Seele in spirituelle Freiheit hinein, für mehr Freude, Weisheit und Frieden.

Day DJ is a weekly series at Villa Vida Café. Each Friday, local DJs take over the space and share their sound in a daytime setting. The focus is on new talent, experimentation, and community. This is a place to build sets, try ideas, and connect through music. The format is open and relaxed. You can come to listen, work, meet people, or stay for the full set. The aim is to create a consistent platform where DJs grow their practice and support each other. **DJ Ruby Nyaoro** DJ Ruby Nyaoro brings a groove-driven selection rooted in rhythm and flow. Expect a mix of house music, deep house, Afro house, Afro tech, and tech house — blending funky elements with steady, danceable energy. The focus is less on strict genre lines and more on creating a cohesive atmosphere that moves the room. DJs have played a central role in queer culture. In spaces where queer people were excluded, DJs created environments where identity and expression could exist. Through sound, they shaped rooms, built connections, and guided shared experiences. Many of the sounds and practices that define nightlife today grew out of queer spaces. House, disco, and club culture were shaped by queer communities, especially Black and Latinx scenes. Day DJ continues this history by creating space for new voices and keeping this culture active. **Participate as a DAY DJ** **[https://villavida.at/portfolio-item/day-dj](https://villavida.at/portfolio-item/day-dj?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAYnJpZBExZHhIekNYM2VMYTdLREFFeXNydGMGYXBwX2lkEDIyMjAzOTE3ODgyMDA4OTIAAR4fBsYcnU5dV9mz3JpeIffyheKyyZL_PQdYmBlkJa9Pz6SRBCqkC2sh7N9lKg_aem_86MrlVYuZApUP-WTrm0WKQ)**

## [GET TICKETS HERE!!!](https://www.eventbrite.at/e/99-easy-steps-to-austrian-integration-terence-hartnett-live-thecomedypub-tickets-1989314271537?aff=MeetUp) A fast-paced English comedy show about surviving — and loving — life in Austria. ## An American’s Guide to Becoming Austrian (In Only 99 Easy Steps) Two years ago, NYC comedian **Terence Hartnett** moved to Vienna for love. Now, after navigating bureaucracy, Kaffeehaus culture, German grammar traps, recycling rules, and the mysterious emotional rhythm of Austrian friendliness, he’s ready to present his definitive — and completely foolproof — 99-step integration plan. This is English-language Kabarett meets sharp stand-up comedy — rapid-fire, intelligent, self-aware, and deeply relatable for anyone who has ever felt like an outsider in a new country. ## What the Show Explores * ☕ **How to Order at a Viennese Kaffeehaus** (The service is half as attentive as in America… but so is the expected tip.) * 🚋 **How to Master Public Transport** (If it looks free, it probably isn’t.) * 📚 **A1 German Confusion** (“Wer ist die toilette?” does NOT mean what you think it means.) * ❄️ **Austrian (Un)Friendliness** Austrians aren’t unfriendly — they just take three years to decide if they like you. * ♻️ **Recycling** Enough said. Through rapid punchlines, sharp cultural comparisons, and heartfelt storytelling, Hartnett examines the small daily moments where cultures collide — and where humor saves us. ## Cultural Relativity, Explained Through Laughter Kurt Vonnegut once wrote: *“Cultural relativity is defensible, attractive. It's a source of hope.”* As an outsider, Hartnett looks at Austrian culture with curiosity instead of criticism. What seems strange through American eyes becomes funny, thoughtful, and sometimes even beautiful. There is a lot to love. A little to resent. And so much to laugh about. Through gentle teasing and sharp self-deprecation, **everyone becomes the punchline — including the comedian himself.** ## Who This Show Is For ✔ Expats navigating Austrian life ✔ Austrians curious how they look from the outside ✔ English-speaking comedy lovers in Vienna ✔ Anyone who has ever lived abroad ✔ Fans of smart, cultural, observational stand-up If you’ve ever struggled with integration, paperwork, language, or just figuring out where to stand on an escalator — this show is for you. ## About Terence Hartnett Terence Hartnett is a New York City comedian known for blending personal storytelling with sharp cultural observations. His work bridges continents with humor that is intelligent, warm, and quietly philosophical — without ever losing the punchlines. ## Why You Should Come Because integration is hard. Because Austria is confusing. Because cultural differences are funny. Because laughter makes everything easier. **99 Easy Steps to Austrian Integration** is a love letter to Austria — written in jokes. Seats are limited. Arrive early, grab a drink, and get ready to laugh at the beautiful absurdity of living between cultures. #TerenceHartnett #99EasySteps #EnglishComedyVienna #ExpatComedy #ComedyInVienna #StandUpVienna #IntegrationComedy #AmericanInAustria #ViennaComedy #KabarettEnglish #LiveComedyVienna #CulturalComedy #TheComedyPub #ViennaEvents #ThingsToDoInVienna

### **Bitte alles lesen!** \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- **Begegnungen jenseits von Small Talk** An diesem Abend widmen wir uns einer der vielleicht wichtigsten Fragen unseres Lebens: **Die Wahrheit über Liebe.** Warum sehnen wir uns so tief nach Liebe, Nähe und Verbindung — und erleben dennoch so oft Enttäuschung, Unsicherheit oder innere Leere? Es gibt Momente im Leben, in denen sich Fragen nicht mehr übergehen lassen. Zu Sinn. Zu Beziehungen. Zu Innerer Ruhe, Weisheit, Spiritueller Ganzheit. Zu dem, was wirklich zählt. **Wir betrachten diese Fragen nicht nur aus persönlicher,** **sondern auch aus philosophischer und spiritueller Sicht.** Was ist Liebe wirklich? Warum suchen wir so oft im Außen, wonach wir uns innerlich sehnen? Und verändert sich Beziehung, wenn sich unser Verständnis von uns selbst verändert? Dieses Treffen bietet einen Raum, um diesen Fragen bewusst zu begegnen — im Austausch mit anderen und in Verbindung mit dir selbst. Der Abend beginnt mit einem kurzen inspirierenden Impuls auf Basis eines Videos von Alan Watts über das vielleicht grundlegendste menschliche Verlangen. Danach öffnen wir einen Raum für ehrliche Gespräche, Reflexion und Austausch. Nach einer kurzen Pause wechseln wir behutsam von Worten in die Stille — mit Raum für innere Resonanz, bewusstes Wahrnehmen und tiefere Einsichten. Ein zentraler Bestandteil ist das, was ich **Soul Polishing** nenne: eine regelmäßige Praxis, mit sich selbst in Kontakt zu bleiben — und innere Balance, Ruhe und Stärke zu entwickeln. Nicht einmal. Sondern immer wieder — wie Zähneputzen. Ein erfülltes Leben entsteht nicht zufällig. Es entsteht durch Aufmerksamkeit, durch ehrliches Hinschauen und durch kleine, bewusste Schritte im Alltag. Du kannst selbstverständlich auch alleine kommen. Die Atmosphäre macht es leicht, in Kontakt zu kommen. Du entscheidest selbst, wie viel du teilen möchtest — Zuhören ist genauso willkommen. Du gehst mit mehr Klarheit. Mehr Ruhe. Und vielleicht auch mit einem neuen Blick auf Liebe, Verbindung und dich selbst. Für Kaffee, Tee, kleine Snacks und Getränke ist gesorgt. Beitrag: €20 (zur Deckung der Kosten für Raum, Getränke, Snacks und Organisation) Ich freue mich auf dich. Dieter Langenecker [www.langenecker.com](http://www.langenecker.com/ "http://www.langenecker.com") PS: Offiziell endet der Abend um 20:00 Uhr — und wenn du noch ein wenig bleiben möchtest, bist du natürlich herzlich willkommen. Schau' dir dazu dieses kurze **[Video](https://youtu.be/In8dqdxpCF4)** an.
