Hi everyone!
My name is Tamara, but you can call me Tami. I live in Purkersdorf, witch is a town about 10 minutes away from vienna. I have 2 older brothers who's names are Patrick and Thomas. My hobbys are reading, listening music, dancing and meeting friends. I am looking forward to the peacecamp and to meet you all. I hope that I will learn a lot of new things in the camp like the different cultures and ways to live. I wish that I can have a interesting and informative time with all of you.
With kind rewards Tami

Meet Silvio Gutkowski, workshop "large group"

Source: Silvio.jpg

A few words to my Austria friends:
We are already in spring and the days became longer and warmer. And this is the prelude for the Peace Camp 2016.
Al least I repeat this routine to prepare myself every year and I begin to be afraid that the group I will have will be very difficult.

Afterwards I relax and start to remind the faces of my young friends there, and start to feel better. At the end I continue thinking if I have at home the shirts I need and what will be the book I will read at night before falling asleep.
And with so simple personal thoughts I send to my colleagues and students there I great hug hoping to see you.soon
