Our attitude is easy going; enjoy the moment, cook healthy but tasty food, enjoy good conversation and cheerfull company.I have been traveling all over the world for pleasure as well as work so can handle all sorts of people as long as they are also easy going.I like hard work when needed and enjoy the outdoors and a glass of good wine; plenty since we are based in the middle of good wine yards.Transport available (car) or can be arranged,also good race-and mountain bicycles are for rent nearby.We are also near to the fantastic Sybbeline mountainrange for all sorts of hiking.Plenty opportunity for combi work and leasuretime.
