  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    You have a room to yourself and the living room, kitchen and bathroom are shared. We can eat meals together, depending on what we agree on. We can take turns cooking or I can do it. I always cook a hot meal at lunchtime between 12:00 and 15:00. You are welcome to have breakfast. In an emergency I only drink coffee and tea. But everything you need for breakfast is there.

    Du hast ein Zimmer für dich alleine und der Wohnraum, Küche und Bad wird gemeinschaftlich genutzt. Die Mahlzeiten können wir je nach absprache gemeinsam einnehmen. Beim Kochen können wir uns abwechseln oder ich übernehme das. Ich koche am Mittag immer eine warme Mahlzeit zwischen 12.00 und 15.00h. Frühstück kannst du gern Mittessen. Ich trinke im Norfall nur einen Kaffee und eine Tee. Aber es ist alles für ein Frühstück vorhanden.
