    Description

    My name is Willeke, I am Dutch. Since May 2023 I live, with my dogs and cat, in a very small village in a beautiful area in Slovakia. Although I have a job (home office) I want to realise a holiday appartment to introduce others to beautiful Slovakia. Away from mass tourism, close to nature and yet also close enough to the hustle and bustle.
    I love spending time in my garden and enjoying the beautiful view.
