Drive by Austria

And what the people in Austria experienced „valuable“ during the pandemic.
The pandemic took a lot out of all of us. I myself also had the focus at the beginning on everything that was no longer possible due to the restrictions. At some point, I got into the habit of asking myself, what is it that I can do right now? So it quickly became clear, I love to meet people, to hear their stories and to take a photo of this encounter. In Austria this was almost always possible and so the perfect plan was already there.

Through a post on social media and combined with the question, who just now experienced something valuable, many wonderful people contacted me with their stories and so the journey could start. Over a year and almost 60 encounters with such valuable people later, it is now done.

I think it is important to mention that the book is not necessarily for right now. Right now, we are just happy to hear nothing more about the subject. And so this book is for the new world, for 5, 10 or 20 years from now, when young people will pick it up and get a little counterweight to the so blatantly negative media coverage. That was very important to me from the beginning. No matter what storms are raging outside, there is ALWAYS something valuable and positive, at exactly the same time. That is what these people told me. That is what these people have experienced. Valuable miracles.

And at the same time this story is also my story, it is what I have experienced valuable during the pandemic and for that I am incredibly grateful. It makes me happy to feel how much people have found themselves in this so precious time and they share this love with us.

That’s what I came here for, that’s what I love to do.

Yours
