    Description

    We're a family of five. We are Henrik (husband), Lone (wife), Joachim (17), Walid (16) and Ahmad Emil (13).

    We live on the countryside in Denmark, Henriks feedlot. Henrik and Lone work from home and our boys go to school or work. We have a small farm with forrest, crops, chickens, cows and a dog. We also have a big kitchen garden. Everything we grow and cultivate at our farm is for private use.
    We love to have company in our house, we love big dinners with family and friends and we also love to go for walks in silence. So you will meet a big warm and welcomming house, and also a place where privacy and rest is important.

    We have a vision with our farm. We want to give the animals as natural circumstances as possible and their health is highly prioritised. We're not fully self-sufficient but we love to make food with our own meat and vegetables.

    Your room is located upstairs. We have two toilets in the house, and the one is located just next to your room. We have a bicycle you can borrow, so you can go to the city on your own.
