The tour was incredibly enriching! We traveled with Nico, and his story captivated me and gave me a lot to think about. So many valuable insights, for which I am very grateful! Thank you!!
-
Nico impressed us greatly; we have immense respect for his ability to speak so freely and openly about his past. What he told us deeply touched me and changed my perspective on many people. It was only there that I truly understood. … Continue reading He is aware that something like his childhood also plays out in real life and that we do far too little about it.

Today we had a trip to Wiener Nimmerland, a guided tour with Martin. Moving, emotional, touching, interspersed with funny stories. It's admirable how Martin describes his experiences with drugs, homelessness, punks, and the horrific withdrawal leading up to... … Continue reading A path towards a kind of normality. I took many thoughts home with me, not because Martin comes from our village, but because Martin conducted this tour so excellently that two hours were too short for me personally; I still wouldn't have been bored after six hours.

Dear Wiener Nimmerland team, thank you so much for the wonderful city tour today! Nico told his story so vividly, authentically, and incredibly eloquently that we were completely captivated. Even though the students themselves didn't have any questions... … Continue reading When I asked them questions, I could clearly sense how interested and captivated they were by Nico's stories and the background information. We will definitely discuss and reflect on the experience together tomorrow. I would like to sincerely thank you for this valuable opportunity. The encounter was more impactful and lasting for me personally, and I am convinced it was for the students as well, than anything we have done so far on the topic of "drugs." Nico's open and authentic account allows for a completely different approach to this subject. I am convinced that such encounters can contribute significantly to breaking down prejudices against homeless people, fostering understanding, and changing one's perspective on the world. Thank you so much for your important work and for making such encounters possible! Warmest regards and a big thank you to Nico! Julia

This review is for Nico. Today I had the pleasure of being guided by Nico through his time living on the streets of Vienna. It's impressive how reflective this young man is, despite carrying a huge burden and having relatively little time to process his experiences. … Continue reading Nico is very open and gives unflinching insights into life as a drug-addicted, homeless teenager on the streets of Vienna.

Today I was with a group of young people on a tour led by Nico from Wiener Nimmerland and I was very impressed. Nico himself lived on the streets and spoke openly and authentically about his experiences with homelessness and drug addiction. … Continue reading What was truly impressive was that we were taken directly to places that were part of his former life, such as his former sleeping spots. This gave us a very direct insight into a reality we would otherwise likely only know from a distance. We could ask all our questions and openly discuss very personal topics. The young people who participated found these personal and authentic insights particularly valuable. It was also moving for me to listen to Nico and gain such personal insights into his experiences. The booking and organization were also excellent and straightforward. A truly special tour that brings the topics of homelessness and addiction closer to the viewer in an understandable and authentic way, while simultaneously prompting reflection. Many thanks to Nico and Wiener Nimmerland!

I was particularly impressed by the courage and openness with which Martin spoke about his past as a homeless person and his struggle with addiction. You can sense that this is someone who uses his experiences to break down prejudices and share his wisdom with others. It was incredibly moving, enlightening, and thought-provoking. But what impresses me most is how far Martin has come. His development is admirable, and he can be incredibly proud of himself. The fact that he now uses his story to raise awareness, offer hope, and foster understanding deserves the utmost respect. This walk was far more than a city tour—it was an encounter that will have a lasting impact. An absolute recommendation for anyone who wants to experience Vienna from a completely different perspective. Thank you, Martin, and all the best for your future!
