Cyclist looks at the Mur

"Due to my passion for cycling and my fascination for foreign cultures and languages, I have found exactly the right place here."

My career & more about me

After graduating from school, I decided to spend a year abroad with stays in Spain, the USA and France before I moved to Salzburg to study psychology. Already during my studies, I was able to gain experience as an editor of a gadget blog and have been running my own website on the topic of mechanical keyboards since 2020. After a station in retail at an Apple reseller, I have been working as a content editor as well as junior SEO consultant at Eurofun Touristik since the end of 2022. I can actively incorporate my personal interests and hobbies into my daily work.

My favourite tour with Eurobike

My favourite tour with Eurobike

What else is there to tell?

In my free time ...

I enjoy riding my mountain bike, preferably in the mountains.

My favourite things to read ...

are self-development books and (fantasy)-novels.

My perfect day ...

starts with a hearty breakfast. Then I jump on my mountain bike and go on a tour. Alternatively, I also like to be out and about in a larger city, such as Vienna. When I return in the afternoon, I get some rest before heading out for dinner. I end the evening with a walk, a book or a film.

Travelling and other countries ...

fascinate me time and again and help me broaden my horizons.

My favourite travel destinations ...

Vienna is always worth a visit. Otherwise, I enjoy going where I have the option to ride nice routes with my mountain bike, but I can also get something out of a city trip.

My most recent trips ...

were some short trips to Vienna, before that a holiday in Miami and on the West coast of Florida.

Happiness and contentment for me means ...

to be at peace with myself and live in the here and now.

Writing for me means ...

allowing my creativity to run free and to record my experiences. For me, writing is also an important tool for reflecting, organizing and processing experiences.

Travel Story: The Mur Cycle Path
After working for Eurofun Touristik for about a year, it was finally time for my first "team-member on tour" experience. After much deliberation, I chose the cycle tour on the Mur Cycle Path, which I will explore with a good friend from my school days. This tour is perfect for discovering a new region of my adopted home, Austria, that was previously unknown to me. I am very excited about my cycling tour in Styria.

Bicycle tires in profile
Anyone who rides a bike more often knows that the contact points with the bike are particularly important for a comfortable and safe ride. A comfortable saddle, suitable grips and non-slip pedals form the basis for a pleasant time on the bike. However, the contact points of the bike with the ground should not be forgotten. The tires have an immense influence on the riding characteristics of a bike, which is why choosing the right tires is one of the most important factors when buying or renting a bike.

Starting the season in the stations
The winter is coming to an end, the last snow is melting and the first flowers are slowly starting to appear. For us, the beginning of spring does not only mean that the temperatures are rising and the days are getting longer, but also that the new season is about to start and we are working hard to further improve our service and especially our on-site support.

Eurofun Winter Sports Day 2023
Our popular annual Eurofun winter sports day took place again this year in February. In the morning, we set off from Obertrum to snowy Obertauern, where we are spoilt for choice between a wide range of winter activities. Besides the classic skiing, we also have the option of winter hiking, cross-country skiing or even snowshoeing. So everyone can choose their individual favourite and get their money's worth. We look forward to an eventful day in the snow!

Eurobike company outing 2022
After a very successful end to the 2022 season, it was time to go on a company outing again this year. For the popular two-day trip among colleagues, there are traditionally two points on the agenda: one day is dedicated to cycling, the other day is dedicated to hiking. Whether cyclists or hikers, everyone will get their money's worth again this year. The sporting part of the company outing is rounded off with good food, nice conversations, new contacts and an overnight stay in a hotel including a three-course menu - leaving nothing to be desired!
