About me
Whether I’m on the rock face, in the air, in the snow or on ice – I love all the ways you can travel in the Alps and I let myself be guided by my passion and respect for nature. The fact that I, as a free alpine journalist, am able to write down the stories told by the mountains, is a gift. But when the sun shines into the camper’s windows, I’m happy to leave my to-do list until the nighttime... ;-)
Andreas Lattner about Marlies Czerny
It’s absolutely okay to try something impossible every now and again, to reach for the stars. With her seemingly limitless energy, she has no difficulty doing this – and it’s contagious! But when it comes to climbing, she might wish she was at least five centimeters taller.
Do you sing in the shower?
No, for the sake of my roommates!
What’s hidden under your bed?
All of my mountain equipment (from friends to climbing shoes, a tent and sleeping bag, through to crampons and a paraglider), 100 liters of water and some food supplies, some dirty laundry, a toolbox and everything else a household could need.

And finally, a joke
Since I’ve just written a book with Peter Habeler, I’ll use one of his: There are two yetis. The first yeti explains to the second yeti that they’ve just met Reinhold Messner. “What?” cries the second yeti, “Messner really exists?”
