We are a nature- and quietness-loving family of four persons, but also like to have some adventures - and that's how we live - in the countryside near a great city - Rostock at the Baltic-Sea.
I (Fanny, 40 years old) am a teacher, my husband Olaf (44) is a master of motor-vehicles, our kids (Jasper, 10 and Hermine, 6) are scool-kids.
You can get fresh eggs every day from the small chicken coop and depending on the season there are also apples, plums, strawberries, mulberries, gooseberries, currants, tomatoes, cucumbers and much more to harvest and of course eat - if you like....
We all love books and painting; there are stones and acrylic pencils for mementos always on the table in the livingroom...
We have two cats, which can stay and be feeded outside the house during your visit, and ten chicken.

Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area
We live in a small village almost at the end of a dead end street in the western of Rostock. We have great neighbors to the left and right; to the back our large and child-friendly property borders on a field. In the neighboring village is a farm store (fresh milk every day, two times a week cheese, meat, potatoes ...); one village further are two supermarkets, a pharmacy and bakers. It is not far to the beaches of the Baltic Sea and wonderful cities like Rostock and Bad Doberan.

Our home exchange - places to go and things to do while staying in our home
Of course you can just spend a nice time on our property, sit in the beach chair and read or watch deer in the field - while the kids jump in the trampoline, swim in the pool, ride scooters or bikes, play table tennis (everything available) or feed the chickens, but much more is possible:
- go to Rostock in all seasons - a wonderful port-city - (15-20 minutes by car) to visit nice cafes, restaurants or museums, See the famous Zoo or take a walk in the city harbor and try one
of the many great restaurants with water view
- visit the nature-park in Güstrow (see wolves…)
- from Rostock/Warnemünde you can take the ferry for a one-day-day trip to Denmark
- go to the many beaches nearby (all about 20-25 min. drive away) - also beautiful in autumn and winter
- bike tours into the surrounding forests, to Rostock or to Parkentin (wonderful cafe, fresh smoked fish at a small pond) - (all about 25 minutes away by bike, less with a
car; 5 bikes are available here)
- make a SUP tour on the lake "Warnow" (SUPs are also available)
- go to Bad Doberan (enchanting small town, beautiful minster, also a nice cafe at a large playground, also the start of the Bäderbahn Molli)
- to Berlin and Hamburg it takes 2 hours by car
...
Happy to give tips when we know who is coming and how the vacation should be:)
