During my last European tour to boarding schools, I visited Salzburg. Small international school American International School Salzburg located a ten-minute drive from the city center.

There is one more one-store building on the grounds, which has science labs and classrooms. There are some playing fields and that is all of the campus.The school has about 100 students, 20 of them are day students: some…
