Description
Hi,
my name is Bettina. I am an architect and live in a weekly change in Hamburg or in the discribed house in Selent, 90 min by car from Hamburg. So you would be alone there sometimes. For living you would have your own apartment.
In summertime I rent a part of the house for a couple of days. I have a friend (he is musician) who uses the tiny house in the last end of the garden sometimes.
I love to travel. I did backpacking in India, Thailand, Senegal, South Afrika, Venezuela, Kuba and many more. But since a while I also like to spent time with friends in my quiet house and garden near the baltic see and love to have guests to hang arround and rebuilt the old house.
I would be glad to be your host! I am 55 and have two daughters (18 and 24) who are not living there but are coming sometimes. Also my partner or friends will come to stay for a weekend time by time. Sometimes we would cook, play music, go for walks...
