My Native Country Austria | Europe

[Imagemap (see below for textual links)]

I am at home in Austria, and even though I have visited a lot of other places – both in Europe as well as overseas, for example in the United States and Canada, as well as in Australia – my native country is still exceptionally beautiful.

I have already been to all nine federal states of Austria – however, not always as a tourist. When I was younger, for example, I have often visited my grandparents in Carinthia, the southernmost federal state of Austria. Quite often, we also spent some time on touristic activities – however, there are only very few pictures that are good enough in order to be published in my photo album.

Apart from pictures from Carinthia, I can also present some pictures from my home town Vienna as well as some pictures taken during a short trip to Kufstein (Tyrol) in September 2004.

- I have not yet explored my hometown Vienna very thoroughly. Nonetheless, some photos do exist.
- Like a lot of Viennese, I visit Lower Austria – mainly for hiking in the eastern fringes of the Alps.
- Because of my job, I lived in Steyr (Upper Austria) for three years. There, I have also been sightseeing a bit.
- For me, a stay in Salzburg was always related to skiing (at least up until now). However, Salzburg is also a beautiful summer destination.
- I am quite fond of Carinthia, as already said before, thanks to many holidays at my grandparent's.
- In September 2004, I visited a friend of mine in Kufstein, and enjoyed some days amidst the mountains in Tyrol.
- In March 2006, I went on a weekend trip to Vorarlberg, for going skiing in the Montafon.
