  Description

  We, Marco and Marjolijn (mid 50) live in Gölenkamp (Germany, near the Dutch border) with 1,5 horse (1 big, 1 tiny), our dog, 3 cats and 2 turtledoves. Gölenkamp is a small village in a beautiful setting. Our dream is to transform our unused land in a place for nature, our horses and us. There will be a track for the horses, we want to bring back native plants for a sustainable habitat and there will be edible plants for horses and humans. (food forest / permaculture). We start from scratch...
  We are also renovating our home, have a large garden to maintain, and grow our own food as much as possible in our greenhouse, so there is always something to do over here.
  Marco is medically retired, maintaining a daily rhytm is important to him. We can't predict how long he can work a day. He is a real people person. I (Marjolijn) also love people, but I also need a lot of personal space. I work 3 days a week as an employee and freelance as a graphic designer. We love te peace and tranquility of the countryside and we love animals and nature.
  We look forward to meeting you!
