    We are a family with two lovely children (11 and 8 years old) and we are moving to a new house on 15th of August. We have a guest room in both our current home and in the new house.

    I (Anett) work with nonviolent communication and I am an organization coach. I support people in creating more order and structure in their lives.

    We love living near Lake Constance. Both now and in our new home we are only about 5 minutes walking distance to the lake. From our current home we already have a bit of a lake view - from the new house in Hagnau the view is truly amazing.

    Cooking: We mainly cook vegetarian and vegan meals. My husband also eats meat, but since I usually do the cooking, most of our meals are vegetarian or vegan.

    Transport: gerne stellen wir ein Fahrrad zur Verfügung. Ansonsten fährt auch ein Bus und ein Auto haben wir auch.
