First of all I want to say

Hello!

Favourite home area

Zillertal: Bergstation, Schwarze Wand

Six words, six statements

CLIMBING: my golden thread  /  CLIMBING: my motivation  /  CLIMBING: pretty challenging  /  PLANET EARTH: 5 to 12  /  POLITICS: kills  /  MOTTO: having fun

Six of my favourite places

Rocklands, Arco, Southern France, my birthplace, Innsbruck, anywhere near the ocean

Four things that suck

1. Doing dishes, 2. doing laundry, 3. vacuum cleaning, doing 1, 2 and 3 with a hang over

One word describes …

BOULDERING: red finger tips  /  ROUTES: pulsating forearms  /  PLASTIC: comps  /  ALPINISM: wow!  /  NO CLIMBING: not yet

Three things a woman/man should do

Grow up, stay a child, find the right balance

Goals for the future

Finish studies

Final statement

Don’t take life too serious!
