We met during our studies at the university in Germany. Post graduating we moved to Austria.
After working 11 years for an Austrian steel producer, we decided to change our lives and are breaking out of the current trott of life. During our work in Texas for our Austrian company we decided to take a sabbatical and to sail around the world. In Texas we found our boat and begann preparing her and us for this adventure.
