You should study the local language. However, English is widely spoken there. Check online. you are a travel agent, so you know you'll need to contact the embassy to get a work visa. I recommend that you contact them and ask for advice. Maybe they'll help you find work. Good luck.

My sister got a job in Vienna, she is in the Food Industry. All I know is that she got in the web and began looking for jobs in Europe, but I do not know the exact site she looked in. I know there is one site that is call something like extreme jobs or ultimate jobs, anyway, my sister is 54 yrs.old and is now working in Austria, very happily. She is getting accolades for her job and many recognitions. The company that hired her applied for her visas, permits, taxes and state benefits on her behalf. She says to work there a company needs to hire you and apply for you, just like here in the States.
another issue; The Austrians do not speak German, nor English, they have their own language, and my sis says the language is strange! Here I am going to add, my sister is Mexican-Swiss, she moved from Mexico City to Vienna for this job, speaks fluent German, and Spanish and is a very much accomplished chef and event planner. Hope her example helps you in some way.
