It's been said there are only two certainties in life: death and taxes.

I'd like to add a third: hipster neighborhoods. Every city has one, and Austria's capital, Vienna, is no exception.

Vienna's version is centered on Praterstrasse, a wide avenue in the city's Leopoldstadt neighborhood - a district historically home to Turkish and Balkan immigrants and Orthodox Jews.

While the area is full of trendy restaurants and cafes, art galleries, and boutiques, the neighborhood's crown jewel is a place that is hard to categorize.

Supersense is a cafe/recording studio/photo booth/printing press that is indebted to all things vintage and analog. 

I stumbled across Supersense recently while traveling in Austria recently and found myself peeking through the shop's many curiosities for the better part of an afternoon.

Take a look inside.
