About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Cycling the world!

ABOUT ME

I am creative, open-minded and love to travel.
I love bicycles, love to ride my cargobike and my racingbike.
I'm studying experimental film at the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna. I mostly work with 16mm film and my old but decent hand-cranked Bolex. It's an expensive art but what shall i do - it's my passion!

PHILOSOPHY

difficult question! let's meet and we will figure it out together ;)
