Hello, I am Traude Wild!

I love hiking! I love nature and I love beauty! My love developed during my childhood in Austria, when nature became my most intimate friend. The deep connection to nature runs through my life like a red thread. It accompanied me during my studies of economics in Vienna, the study of art history in the United States and the upbringing of my four children into special human beings.
More than 20 years ago, I started Zen meditation in the lineage of Katagiri Roshi and discovered creative writing taught by Natalie Goldberg. I combined all these activities in my recent work with students of the University of South Carolina in the US, the Sigmund Freud University in Vienna and in various workshops.
