CURRENT MISSION

Taking our lives in our hands

ABOUT ME

My husband and I are down to earth people with a bit of an adventurous spirit.
I'm Austrian and met Mike in college when he studied in Salzburg for one year as a German major.
Then we lived in the US for a few years and in 2012 we moved to Austria. We are now still settling in in Austria and hope to meet some new people in the area.

PHILOSOPHY

Diversity is beautiful.

Lots and lots.
