    Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten

    You will experience a unique bridge between two worlds: the traditional, rustic life in the Austrian Alps and the warm, welcoming hospitality of Middle Eastern culture. We are a multicultural family, and our home is a place where different perspectives and stories meet.

    Sustainable Living & Gardening: Learn how to maintain a garden in a mountain climate and understand the basics of landscape conservation.

    Culinary Exchange: We love to cook! You can learn how to make traditional Austrian dishes or dive into the secrets of Oriental spices and recipes.

    But there is more ......We are in a protected water spring area. You can get a look in the natural springs system and how the water is collected here to flow directly to Vienna City. If you’re interested, there are lot of interesting infos about the nature around us and how eg this fresh spring water system ist connected to the big city.

    It’s the perfect place to breathe the fresh air, and see where some of the best drinking water in the world comes from!

    Beyond the house, you will learn about the local rhythm of life in the Rax/Schneeberg/Semmering area, including hiking tips and discovering hidden spots in the forests.

    For us, the exchange is a two-way street. We want to learn from our guests as much as they learn from us, creating memories through shared meals and conversations.
