In June, we took our students on a "tour" through Martin's life. The students, and we too, were deeply impressed! Martin vividly described his life as a drug and alcohol addict, even though he was … Continue reading very open, honest, but also warning!
Personally, the role of the pharmaceutical industry after I successfully quit smoking made me think a lot.
His description of the eviction of the occupied house also made me smile; so much for the independent media in Austria.

We wish Martin all the best and hope that he and Nadine continue to be successful. All the best! 🍀 -

My class and I booked and took Martin's tour on Thursday, March 13, 2025. Apart from the fact that booking the appointment and all the organizational details were super easy and went smoothly, the tour was truly … Continue reading Very, very interesting. You think you know a lot about homelessness and drug addiction, but here you experience it firsthand. The tour has a deterrent and preventative effect, but without the condescending attitude my parents sometimes had. You won't hear, "Don't take drugs, they're bad!" Instead, you simply hear the life story of a former drug addict who lived on the streets, which makes you realize for yourself that drugs can completely ruin your life. And these stories speak for themselves.
Martin's authentic and natural style captivates the students, while also providing plenty of laughs and snickers. A truly unique tour of Vienna, one I'll definitely do again with another class and have already recommended to many of my friends and acquaintances.
