My name is Iris. I was born in Graz, Austria. I studied interior architecture and architecture in Germany and Austria. During that time I went abroad to Madrid and California. Last year I lived in Kigali, Rwanda and worked as an architect and built playgrounds and learning centers for a small community. For the following 6 months I’ve been traveling through Asia, Australia and the U.S. with my girlfriend and definitely have a lot of stories to share! Working as an architect in Toronto now and looking forward to meeting new interesting people.
