Working on vacation?

Kaprun, Austria Leave a comment

I don’t really like to work on vacation. Nevertheless, I have to interrupt my vacation for three days of work  – or, more precisely, I will extend my vacation for a few more days after three days of work.

Originally, my vacation should already have ended yesterday. However, there will be a workshop in Kaprun over the next three days, and driving back and forth would have been pointless.

Therefore, I decided to take another excursion to the montains above 2000 metres, this time in Stubai valley: I took the Gondola up to the Schlick 2000 sking area which boast some beautiful alpine hikes. All in all, I had a great day (even though I did not do the hike I originally intended to, because I missed the right turn). Continue reading Schlick is sick →
