Back home in good old Austria
Oh yeah, feels good passing through homegrounds! Despite dropping temperatures, they still keep way above 0 and although I am suuuper busy there’s still a bit of time left to enjoy some nice ‘autumny’ days in Austria…
Yeah, spending only a few weeks per year back home, equals pure stress during those … meeting with sponsors, lots of time at the computer working on new projects, articles etc. but hey it’s all good & fun!
I just wrote a big story about Mauritius … hopefully will be published soon!! will let you know asap …
Besides I obviously spend a lot of time in the gym working out hard in order to keep my fitness whilst not being able to practice on the water… dude, kiting is so much more fun, isn’it !!? but a woman’s gotta do what a woman’s gotta do… and working out, fun or no fun, is part of the kite-pro duties as is working at the computer!! today, spent most of my time rowing on the machine, it’s the closest one can do for the endurance of the arms that one needs during a good session kiting! Give it a go next time when there’s no wind or water around!
