Hello Everyone!
I am Kaveh from Vienna, Austria. I have been here for quite some time and I decided to introduce myself and be active. Reading the forum was very helpful so far, especially with choosing inks by reading the excellent reviews and restoring pens.
I started using fountain pens as a child as it was mandatory in elementary school here in Austria. After elementary school I switched to ballpoints and rollerballs as I thought it is "cooler" to use them because all the adults were using them. And yes... I was wrong. So, about a year ago I found my old fountain pen from school and I decided to give it a try. Since then my addiction started. So a year later my collection consists of 30 fountain pens. A few months ago I started buying and restoring vintage pens. In general I like them more than modern pens.
