Hey there,

My name is Raphael, I'm originally from austria and since a few years on my way to explore new beautiful places around the world, to meet and new interesting people, to share life and stories. I’d love to get to know new things, to learn and develope new skills, to open my mind and to gain more knowledge about history, cultures, all different kind of people and of course nature.

I love all kind of outdoor activities, just being out in nature and enjoying the moment.

I usually never travel without my guitar, my old photo camera and a book :)
