We (my wife and one cat) live in a suburb of Graz. All our four children are grown up and we enjoy our 8 grandchildren. We have a nice house and a wonderful garden with a swimming pond.
So far we met a lot of wonderful people and enjoyed having them as guests in our house.
I only hate to write references - thus don't count on receiving one.
