You will be able to learn from him and vice-versa. He works on a daily basis alongside with the work awayers. Last but not least we have a lot of fun together and a very relaxed working atmosphere.
The Hotel is 20 minutes by bike away from the village Oldenburg I Holstein and in the vicinity of many beaches on the Baltic sea. The cities Lübeck, Kiel and Hamburg are between 1 or 2hours away.
