CURRENT MISSION

"mission" sounds evangelical :-(

ABOUT ME

Well - living in a house in a small village with some (...) cats.
About 4 km by foot to the railway station - therefore perhaps a bit difficult access if you do not have a car available (or mountain bikes ;-)
The village is near Treis-Karden at the Mosel river.

PHILOSOPHY

come on.....
fed up of moralizing Germans telling other people how to live.....some are very good at that...:-)

by the way: I do not realey expect washing the dishes, bring a gift or things like that
but what I would like to know is: if the people really come or if they decline - especialIy, when I ask back, if they come or found another place....just a little anwer like: yes, thanks.
have made this experience quite often: people ask to stay but do not advise if they have found another host....this is quite annoying, when I prepare room and so on - perhaps a pizza ....and they do not show up
so: please tell me if you have found another place
then: with the time I am noticing that a certain difference in age makes also a difference in topics, life etc ;)
but anyway CS is about giving hints where to go in the region, interesting spots to see, (not only Geierlay and Burg Eltz ;-))) .... different cultures, way of living.... so just showing up late at night when I have to work the following day does not make up an interesting encounter so-to-speak (except emergency in cold winter ;)
anyway as a matter of fact I am not running a hotel ;)
