We grow our own vegetables & fruits, producing sunpower etc.
Our grownup children & families living away from the island.
We have been volunteers ourselves in Africa for 3 x 2 years.Types d'aide et opportunités d'apprendre

Our farm is placed on the most beautiful Island in Denmark - if you like nature of any kind, this is the spot for almost everything. Of course we have to share with the tourists during summer time.
Bornholm also do have plenty of cultural activities of all kinds.
The local bus is just down the road - and the supermarket is within walking distance.
We also have bikes you can borrow e.g. to go for a swim in the Baltic Sea or ride through the forrest.Informations complémentaires
