Schaust amoi eina!

Austria gave me Schnitzel, snow, and too many der/die/das rules. I’m giving back with Jonboy streetwear, hot sauce, and a podcast full of Schmäh.

Austriankiwi Hot Sauce

When a Kiwi meets Austrian chilis, you get pure fire. Together with TOM’S HOT STUFF we created three sauces — from nur a bissi scharf (Gold at the European Hot Sauce Awards 🥇) to geh leck mi am Arsch. Handmade in Kärnten, only in the 3er-Box.

Jonboy Clothing Brand

From a Kiwi backpacker to an Austrian streetwear brand — that’s Jonboy. Born out of love, Schmäh, and the art of durchwurschteln, Jonboy is all about not taking life too seriously. Now you can wear the motto, not just live it.

My Story

I'm a 28 year old New Zealander who left home to travel the world. After 4 months of travel, I fell in love with an Austrian girl and decided to visit her in Austria. I never left. 

​​

After living in Austria for 3 years, I decided to document my life on Instagram, TikTok and a Podcast called "The AustrianKiwi Podcast" with my girlfriend, Maria Padinger.

​

Feel free to keep up with the journey.
