Thanks for everything, Annet 👍
We couldn’t find anyone more patient for our Alzheimer lady!
Annet was super sweet and never lost patience while playing games or going for a walk in the garden with our ladies and cats 😊.

The 2 old ladies are a hell of fun! Sometimes in better mood then others but in general very kind and cute. Also a good place to crick up your German! I… read more

Mona and Ralf are great hosts, very generous with time, bike, and car. Mona is a fantastic and creative cook – meals were always a treat. The house is comfortable (other than being chilly in the off-season, at least for me) and there's a huge garden; the available bedroom and bathroom had everything I needed. The time with the ladies is easy. If… read more
