    Description

    We are Sabine, Reinhard and a gentle dog named Rico managing 7500 m² (80.000 sqft) land with several buildings on two locations in 14 km distance. Sometimes our son Max and his Chineese girl friend BaiXue, living 14 km away, are visiting us. We perform a nature-loving life growing our own food and get our organic meet and eggs by growing quails and hunting in the forest.

    In our business life we have been traveling frequently, that's why we speek a good English, French as well as Italian language and we want to continue this in the reverse direction by receiveing international guests in our house. We already had >25 volunteers, half female, half male and many of them we've been helping to improve German or English language skills.

    We will let you show insight into the German way of life, we are ingenious cooks, have generated lots of knowledge about sustainable living.

    We want to generate a win-win situation and go once a week with our volunteer in a restaurant and do a touristic program on Sundays.
