I don't believe this needs much explanation. Yet if you are confused about what this place is I'm seriously concerned about the vetting process employed which allowed you to book. 🙊

여행 팁

준비물

AUSTIN PACKING GUIDE

Austin's Weather is very schizophrenic. It was 70°last week. It also snowed & shut down our state. At this point, I can't honestly tell you. (Feb. 2021) Summer: Swim Gear, shorts, tanks, water shoes, flip flops. Winter: See above & add Pants, Long Sleves (aka TX Winter Coat) & Socks.
교통편

Transportation

Lyft is the most economical ride sharing option, but Austin has Uber & Fasten as well. If you're planning on exploring, a rental car would be best.
