sailed around the world for 13 years on our own built yacht. Together with my husband and after 6 years our new born tweens joined us. We satteld in Costa Rica for 10 years. Where we operated a charter business and we had cabinas and horses to rent out for tourists. Our kids went to school in Costa Rica, till they torned 13. In the year 2000 we moved back to Austria. I live in a happy partnership and the kids got good education at college and university. We life in a village in a small house, close to the swiss border and close to the lake and the alps.
