Описание книги

Hallig Hooge is a tiny marsh island just off the North German coast with about 100 inhabitants. One of them is Katja Just. 16 years ago, she decided to trade her busy city life and her promising career in Munich for the contemplative everyday life on Hooge and hasn't regretted a day since.
Despite its seclusion, life never gets dull on Hallig Hooge! From encounters with stubborn Hallig people to fascinating natural spectacles and unexpected challenges on the edge of civilization, Katja Just has a lot of stories to tell. With humor and attention to detail, she presents anecdotes from her life on Hallig Hooge and shows readers how eventful and satisfying life at the supposed end of the world can be.

Отрывок из книги

"Love is eternal presence."

Stefan Branch

.....

In these four years I have witnessed how my parents' new home developed into a gem. With devotion my mother transformed the wild garden into a blooming idyll, based on a monastery garden. Box trees border a total of five flower beds, each with red, yellow, white or blue flowering plants. There's a stem rose in the middle and something always blooms. Thus over the years a real small oasis has developed. An oasis where guests of the house also like to spend their holidays when they spend their holidays in one of the two holiday apartments that have been extended on the first floor. "The Green one" already existed. However, it has been completely refurnished and decorated. This apartment is the larger one, it can accommodate up to four people. It is kept in a warm green, the ceiling is not quite as high, old wooden beams can be seen, which gives this apartment something cosy and cosy. Especially in the winter months. Two years after moving in, my parents extended "The Blue ones" and furnished them in the Gustavian style, i.e. with Swedish warmth and cool colours. Also here there are two alcoves, which offer place for two persons. Guests often ask me if one could sleep in such a closet as a couple.

"It all depends on how much you like each other," is my answer. It is rare to lie like a match in a box, so two metres long and one metre wide are actually sufficient. Even very tall guests give me feedback that they find the alcoves very comfortable. I love sleeping in the alcoves, and they're space-saving too. My parents have not only created a new home for themselves, but also a place where holiday guests feel at home.
