ABOUT ME
Since my last long backpacking trip from Cuba to Bolivia for 6 months in 2018, I wasn't travelling so much and I'm really looking forward to a 3 weeks trip to Sweden and Norway this summer.
My girlfriend and me hope that we meet amazing people during our trip and are very excited to explore a bit more of the countries apart from the beaten tourist paths.
I really like to meet people from all over the world, making fun together and explore different cultures! After being on InterRail and twice for a longer trip in Latin America I consider myself a real viajero :)
In my everyday life I am working at an extra-university research center for hydrogen technologies in Graz (HyCentA) and I am working on a more sustainable lifestyle in my leisure time and travels.
As board member of the Club Alpbach Upper Austria I enjoy to organize inspiring events throughout the year and discuss burning issues with scientists, politicians, artists and philosophers.
PHILOSOPHY
Life is what you make it :)
No man is an island,
Entire of itself,
Every man is a piece of the continent,
A part of the main.
¡Vive el momento, porque la vida está hecha en los momentos!
"We are all living under the same sky, but we don't all have the same horizon"
[Konrad Adenauer]
