Sonja Stochlinski

I am 33 years old and live in Vienna, Austria. My journey with IKEA began in 2004. I started as a part-time co-worker in Customer Service and, since September 2015, I have been a full-time sales co-worker in the Textiles and Bathroom Department in IKEA Vienna North. When not working, I spend most of my time with family and friends. Travelling and meeting new cultures is a real passion of mine. I like gardening and read a lot of books, and I am also interested in animal welfare and nature conservation. I feel very privileged and grateful that I was chosen to represent my store in the IWitness programme. I am very curious to see what effect the Good Cause campaigns have and how they create a better everyday life for those who need it the most. I am looking forward to sharing my experiences with everyone who is interested. Helping is about reaching and inspiring many people and encouraging them to become active themselves—because even the smallest contribution can play a big role.
