Time out in Gambia (Westafrica)
There are periods in life when we feel the need to decelerate, dump ballast, refuel our batteries. To rediscover life in the Now, Gambia is the ideal place for it.
From the very first day, you will be surrounded by friendly faces, strange smells and colors, other sounds and above all a different sense of time. In this new environment you immediately forget the everyday life, leave your stress level and are completely with yourself.
On demand
A break is something very personal.
In order to know what is important to you, what you expect or are looking for, I would like to exchange ideas with you in advance.
Please send me an email and write me how you would like to be reached.
Life on an farm
The farm with about 7 hectares is currently under construction. The goal is to create a teaching farm where young Gambians learn how to develop their own land and generate income.
Currently 400 orange trees are planted, almost 800 papaya trees are growing and will deliver yields in autumn. The trees are supplied with water using a dripping system.
Further program points are about to be realized:
- Vegetables (carrots, eggplants, onions, tomatoes, ...
- Flowers
- Nursery
- Sheep breeding
- Egg production / chickens
- Honey production / bees
- Cashew
- ...
For guests who want to live and join the farm, there are currently two apartments available. Others are in planning.
They live together with Peter. His parents are originally from Guinea-Bissau, which used to be Portuguese. He is a very talented, dedicated and educated young man whose dream it has long been to convey the value of his country to his compatriots. Interesting conversations in the evening, the exchange of views on life in this country and there enrich and satisfy every visitor, as I always get to hear.
To personally find out what a farmer in West Africa has to fight on a daily basis is also very impressive and demands respect from us.
This exciting time will be planted deep in her heart.
