I have travelled around the world before I bought 2018 a 250 Years old frame house and restore it. 2019 we moved in but there is planty of work still too do :) We try to build (and live) ecological friendly and do most things by our one. I am most of time at home caring for my littel ones and study health economics. In our village is a farmer who cultivate organic food, every week we collect our food there. You can´t immagen how good it taste. Every evening we cook. I like cooking and love to know new recipes.
