About the host
Hosted by Frank Ramaekers III
I was born and raised on a farm in Nebraska and moved to Madrid Spain where I lived for 10 years as a professor. My passion is understanding cultures, languages and of course working with my hands and remodeling older homes to share with fellow travelers. I have traveled and stayed in incredible properties throughout Europe and Africa and am now able to share this home with fellow travelers and families whom want relaxation from the chaotic busy lives we live.
Why they chose this property
Amazing location and perfect for a relaxing get away or a work related week. The interior design is minimal, super clean, and the quality furnishings.
