About Me
CURRENT MISSION
we cannot travel at the moment, so we invite the world to our home
ABOUT ME
We are a married couple from Germany (M40/W36) who like to meet people, chatting, cooking, enjoying nature.. and food.
A greek mongrel is squatting in our home.. she is a very kind, friendly and always hungry dog.
We are into cooking and eating, organic food, politics, history, ..we tend to be a bit chaotic, at times...
PHILOSOPHY
Everybody is entitled to his/her beliefs :-)
And we love to talk and learn about new things and different concepts

Teach, Learn, Share
Teach: We'd love to teach you some (typical westfalian and badian) recipes
Learn: We are always eager to learn new stuff, whatever it may be. As we are food-enthusiasts we love to be taught new recipes from all over the world. So, if you can, we would love it if you can bring a recipe from your homecountry.
