Who am I?

It’s challenging to describe oneself in public like this, isn’t it? But here I am, trying to lead you through my wannabe-interesting life with the following posts. I’m going to start with introducing myself briefly:

My name is Hannah, a quite common name, as you can see on the Austrian ranking of the most popular names. Second place. So this seems to be very special about me. J

I have grown up in Leogang, a relatively small village in the middle of the mountains, about 20 minutes from Zell am See. People here mostly work in tourism, as we have got quite a popular skiing resort around here, which I’m really proud of. 

I'm a sporty person, who loves to go for a run. While jogging, I'm able to rearrange my endless thoughts about.......hmm, I guess I think about EVERYTHING, so I'm a perfect demonstrator of "overthinking" :) Except from running I also enjoy many other types of sports to get my head tidied up or to meet up with my friends. I have tried out many different kinds of sports, as I attended a sports-school when I was younger. I like playing tennis and squash, swimming, rock-climbing, all kinds of team-sports or just going for a walk with my mother.

Most people I know are into skiing and so am I. When I’m not studying or travelling I usually work as a skiing instructor.

Amazing Madrid

Obviously I mostly instruct children. As I also enjoy improving my language skills and travelling, I united these interests of mine in the last six months. I went to Madrid, Spain to look after kids. I had a rather amazing time working as an Au-Pair in a great metropolis as Madrid, but I openly admit that I also missed my beloved-ones and my sports-team quite much!

Hard to guess which sport I'm into :) I always enjoy the time with my volleyball-team!

I returned from Spain, maybe a little wiser and more mature, but still hungry for new experiences. So now I am in Graz, another animate and interesting place, to study foreign cultures and languages.

Written art is what inspires me a lot these days, so I want to find a conclusion with the following quote:

Art brings you closer to whatever your present is, your own breathing being.
