  Description

  Hello, we are delighted to get to know you and would welcome you in our family.
  
  We are a family of six, my wife and myself at around 50, and the children between 14 and 22.
  Three of our children have already left the house however come home regularly.
  
  We are both working in the field of coaching and personal development. we are rather open-minded and love to build bridges. On the one hand side we are certainly very much into counselling, self development, yoga and meditation, and on the other hand we also would like to have fun, eat, have a drink and work in the mud.
  
  For us, our farm house is our hobby and sanctuary. We love the fact that we do not have any neighbours and are situated on in a cosy clearing in the middle of the forest.
  
  Our farmhouse is situated in a very cozy landscape with a lot of buildings where we can create new activities. We have for example recently built out the workspace as a seminar house.
  
  To certain degree, we are inspired by the books of John Seymour..😊😊 or Scott Nearing.
