About Me

CURRENT MISSION

After some work in San Dieogo we are spending our holidays in CA together with our son Samuel. We want to camp in some of the wonderful NP here in California before going back to Austria end of July.

Actually I am using that account together with Ursula (Scharinger) you can find her profile easily, since we are traveling as family.

ABOUT ME

I grew up on the countryside of Austria, afterwards I did my national service in Ghana and startet studying in Vienna in 2007. I completed my stydies and I took the chance to study a bit abroad, so I had been to Argentina in July 2012. Now I work at TU Wien doing my PhD.

PHILOSOPHY

I want to live my life in a way, that future generations will also have the chance to do that. that means as much ecological as possible, local food, etc... sustainability in many ways. Why not sustainable couchsurfing? :-)
