ABOUT ME

I'm a 29 year old guy from Upper Austria. I work at the office for a NGO that's offering assistance for physically disabled people. In my freetime i like to hang out with friends and get to know people. I love playing my guitar though i'm not very gifted. Since a few weeks i also play the 'flying v-kulele' - i suck at it, and i looove it.

PHILOSOPHY

if you wanna be happy - just do it and be happy
