About

Boutique lifestyle
support for international living.

Petite Autrichienne is a boutique lifestyle support service founded by Anna Pilz, a Multilingual Ski Instructor, certified Pilates Trainer and Lifestyle Companion from Austria, bringing more than 10 years of experience supporting international guests, families and individuals.

For the past eight winters, Anna has been based in Zürs/Lech am Arlberg, Austria, working with guests of all ages and backgrounds, from young explorers and international families to passionate winter sports enthusiasts. They are united by a shared appreciation for trust, flexibility and genuine human connection.

Having lived and worked across Europe, Australia, South America and Central Asia, she brings genuine cultural fluency and an instinctive ease with people from very different worlds.

Fluent in German, English and Spanish with working knowledge of Italian and Russian — Anna works at the intersection of movement, wellbeing, longevity and language.

Inspired by the principles of longevity and lifelong curiosity, Anna's approach combines movement, language, cultural immersion and meaningful human connection to create experiences that are both enriching and deeply personal.

A great companion goes far beyond logistics. She is a trusted presence, adaptable enough to navigate changing circumstances, intuitive enough to anticipate needs and discreet enough to know when to step forward and when to step back.

Grounded in an academic background in social sciences and pedagogy, Anna combines professional versatility with genuine curiosity, creating thoughtful, human-centred support for individuals and families.

Young Explorers: Language & Sport Companion

An active, multilingual companion for children and young people — combining sport, outdoor adventure and natural language immersion in one shared experience. While skiing, hiking, playing and exploring together, children absorb language naturally through real conversation, daily interaction and genuine connection.

This is not a language class. It is language lived — woven into every ski run, every walk and every moment of the day. German, English, Spanish, Italian and Russian are spoken naturally depending on the child's goals, making progress feel effortless and real.

Skiing & outdoor activities · Multilingual daily conversation · Active travel support · Structured and engaging routines · Learning through movement and play · Cultural experiences and exploration

Ideal for international families whose children benefit from active engagement, sport, outdoor exploration and a natural multilingual environment — a meaningful alternative to traditional childcare.

All services can be chosen individually or combined flexibly — and all engagements begin with a private conversation, no commitment required.
