	My way to work at Microsoft Published on: 16.08.2008 This series of photos is my way to work at Microsoft. I shot them during walking and driving to Microsoft (from my appartment to the office). There's actually no real reason why I made this series, other than the fun of doing something during the walk to the office. It might also be interesting for other people to see how it is when you go to work at Microsoft...
	Hiking at the Rattlesnake Lake Published on: 15.08.2008 I went for a short hike with PaoloM, his girlfriend and Brandon. We drove to Lake Rattlesnake and hiked there. First time in the woods near Seattle and it was a cool experience. Thanks for the hike, guys.
	Going to Seattle: Innsbruck, the Alps, Frankfurt, Greenland, Rocky Mountains, the Cascades and Seattle Published on: 15.08.2008 This picture set describes my way from Innsbruck to Seattle. The first flight was over the Alps to Frankfurt. It was interesting because I have never seen the Alps from the top. The second flight was from Frankfurt over Greenland, Canada and the Rocky Mountains to Seattle. Greendland is really cool. All this eyes swimming in the water: that's really awesome and I couldn't stop watching outside of the window down to the icebergs.
	Touring the lakes near Salzburg Published on: 14.08.2008 When I was visiting Karo's hometown before going to Seattle we toured the lakes that are near Salzburg. They have a lot of very beautiful lakes. Most of them are embedded into a mountainous landscape and look therefore really cool. The lakes are also very deep and very cold. I only entered one of them and that only for a few minutes because of them being so cold.
	Bressanone/Brixen in June 2008 Published on: 20.06.2008 Karo was visiting my hometown for a week in the beginning of June. We had a lot of fun walking around and enjoying the great wheather. Since I'm usually not walking a lot around at my own neighbourhood (speaking of going for a walk in the nearby villages) it was also very interesting for me: we discovered a lot of new stuff together!
	A trip to Venice Published on: 20.06.2008 We went to Venice for a few days (beginning of June) before the exams season started. It was an awesome trip that didn't cost us very much because we booked a hotel that wasn't exactly at the Canale Grande and the flight was also a special offer. In the few days that we spend in the city we walked around to check out the different attractions, like the Piazza Marcus, the Rialto bridge, Murano and a lot more... awesome trip!
	Castle Kreuzenstein near Vienna Published on: 20.06.2008 Karoline and I went to the Castle Kreuzenstein that's located near to Vienna. We had a lot of fun visiting the castle and checking out the birds school that is located right next to the castle. The guide who showed us around in the castle told us that a lot of today's sayings are from the middle ages and gave also some examples.
	Imagine Cup Finals Austria 2008 Published on: 28.05.2008 We (the team consists of Alex Duggleby, Marlie Oeltze, Stefan Braito and me) participated and won the Austrian Imagine Cup Finals 2008. Our project is related to biodiversity. We want to simulate how bringing new plants into a habitat changes the habitat; for example, is the plant going to survive there or is is going to kill other plants that were there before. More on our project is found here. The pictures in this album have been taken at the IC finals and the meeting with the environment secretary that we had after winning the finals.
	Wachau, Dürnstein and a boat cruise Published on: 05.05.2008 Karo and I did a boat cruise (on the Danube) into the Wachau. We visited Tulln, passed Krems and went to Dürnstein. Dürnstein is a wonderful town; although a little bit full of souvenier shops. They have also an old castle on the hill. We went up there to visit that too. During our way on the Danube we passed also a watergate.
	Academic Community Launch, Austria Published on: 15.04.2008 These are some pictures of the Academic Community Launch that we, the Student Partners in Austria, have organized. The Community Launch is about bringing the new features in Visual Studio 2008, .NET 3.5, Silverlight etc. to the students. It's a free event where we have spoken about these new technologies.
	Sharm El Sheik, Egypt Published on: 11.02.2008 This winter we went to Sharm El Sheik in Egypt. We spent one week in a all-inclusive hotel and had a lot of fun. The hotel had a house reef where we went to watch the cool and colorful fishes of the Red Sea. My dad and my brother took a lot of pictures that show the location and what we did all the week. My dad also did a lot of sunrise pictures, which are just plain awesome!
	Proms in Vienna Published on: 23.01.2008 We went to two proms in Vienna: one was the prom of the University of Economy Vienna and the second one was the so called "Flower Prom" that is organized by Vienna's gardeners. All the two were a lot of fun although I liked the second one a lot more. The "Flower Prom" is usually nicer because the decoration is cooler and they do it in the Vienna city hall.
	Salzburg Christmas 2007 Published on: 23.12.2007 This year I have been in Salzburg right before christmas. My girlfriend is back from Australia and we spend some time to make cookies, walk the christmas markets, walk up a snowy mountain and enjoy our time! It was a very pleasent stay in Salzburg and I enjoyed it a lot!
	TechEd Developer Europe 2007 in Barcelona Published on: 02.12.2007 At the beginning of this year's November I attended the TechEd Developer Europe 2007 in Barcelona. It was a great time and Alex (another MSP from Austria) took a lot pictures. He allowed me to take the best ones and publish them!
	Brisbane Published on: 29.09.2007 We spend the last two days of my journey to Australia in Brisbane. We walked around the city, took the ferry and visited the koala sanctuary. Brisbane is a really nice city!
	Cape Tribulation and driving back to Cairns Published on: 29.09.2007 Cape Tribulation was fun. We were there in a small hotel that was build inside the rain forest. While we drove back to Cairns we stopped at several beaches where we had some fun while driving around and making pictures.
	River Boat Cruise on Forest Creek (Cape Tribulation) Published on: 29.09.2007 While I drove us up to Cape Tribulation we went to a river boat cruise to watch the crocodiles. It was a very pleasent journey and the dude showing us around really knew what he was talking about.
	Skyrail, Kuranda and Scenic Railway Published on: 29.09.2007 One day we went from Cairns via the Skyrail to Kuranda. During the way to Kuranda we stopped twice to watch the Barron Falls and enjoy the rain forest. In Kuranda we were at the zoo, birds and butterfly house. After that we went home with the scenic railway. That was a great day!
	Great Barrier Reef Published on: 29.09.2007 The great barrier reef is a must see. We went on a one day tour with a catamaran. It was very cool and very relaxing.
	Cairns Published on: 29.09.2007 We spend a few days in Cairns. The city was quite nice - they had great food there - but you couldn't enter the beach because it is a region of many crocodiles.
	Sydney Published on: 17.09.2007 Some impressions from Sydney and Manly (mostly Manly beach). The opera house looks a lot smaller in real life ;)
	Great Ocean Road Published on: 17.09.2007 My girlfriend and I went driving down the Great Ocean Road near Melbourne. It was raining a lot, but we had a great fun and driving on the left side was interesting. We went down to the 12 apostels, which made it a total drive of 12 hours!
	A trip to Melbourne Published on: 17.09.2007 Some impressions of my girlfriend and me being in Melbourne for a few days. We went on one of the towers to watch the city, walked on the river side, were visiting the Pixar exhibition and enjoyed the city life.
	Karo visiting my hometown in February 2007 Published on: 08.05.2007 In February 2007 my girlfriend came to Bressanone/Brixen, my hometown. We went out for a walk and a luge near a village in the mountains. The village is located in a valley near to my hometown. It was fun.
	Gran Canaria with family Published on: 06.05.2007 My family and I went to Gran Canaria. We were at the Riu Gran Canaria (which had a great buffet), enjoyed the great weather and had also fun playing card games with my grand parents. My family was always in the search for an Italian coffeeshop, because they didn't like the coffee at our hotel.
	Barbados in summer 2006 Published on: 06.05.2007 My girlfriend and I went to Barbados. It was so wonderful. We went to the Flower Forest, Orchid World, Wildlife Resort, beaches and several other places. It was also the first time I was driving an automatic car.
	Karo visiting my hometown in summer 2006 Published on: 13.05.2007 My girlfriend and I in Bressanone in July 2006. We went to the local swimming pool and another great place near a small river.
