WHEN/WHERE DID YOU START CANOEING/ KAYAKING?:   I started kayaking in the age of 11 in Linz / Austria. First, just for fun with my brothers and friends but in the age of 16 I decided to kayak professionally and became a member of the Austrian National team. If you are in your kayak you feel free, happy and strong. Paddling is so close to nature. I love being outdoors and having a close connection to nature. I like the water, the intensity and the competition. I like to get faster and see how to improve in sport. It‘s a very hard and powerful kind of sports.
