About Me

CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

..still trying to find out! But what I can tell you about me are some facts: 25 years old, Austrian. Grew up on a farm, went to a boarding school, studied media technology and worked in munich (germany) for the last 2 years.
Here comes the interesting part: quit my job, left munich, packed my backpack and will now travel the world.

PHILOSOPHY

If you are always afraid that something happens to you, then nothing will happen to you at all.

You can only achieve greatly, if you dare to fail greatly.

At some point you have to see that the whole world is a huge playground- and there are some damn good toys out there!

The grass is definitely not greener over there!

There will always be a reason not to do something, get over it!

Homesickness hurts especially, when there is no home.
