Hi! I am Nicolette and my kids and me live since June 2016 on this fantastic terrain. We love living in this fantastic place, which we really like to share with other people. I like to travel and my favorite countries are Thailand & Israel. I personally like it very much to get guests, because it keeps me organized and makes me optimize the house 100%. It is easier to make myself in the DO modus for others, than for myself. I hope you get the same cosy, luxury, warm energy as we do, staying here. You are very welcome!
