Story Booth: Andreas Nussbaumer

Andreasnussbaumer: Well, I try to keep it short, as short as is possible. And I want to start with my wife, actually, of course, because she is the reason why we are here. With 35, she bought Liberty. It's a horse called Liberty.

It's mystic, magic. She had a company with 35, still, a personal advice company. In the morning, she drove to Liberty, and then at 10 o'clock AM, she started her work in her company. But 2 years later, she sold her company and decided to move away from normal business.

So long story short, she worked with animals, so she quit her normal work, and she worked with animals, took care of animals when people went to holiday or to hospital. Her wish was to live with animals. So we began to search for a farm, and it took about four or five years, and then we found this place here. It's called Hof Sannenweider.

And we started with two horses, two dogs, and two cats. And in the beginning, the work with the animals was just a hobby. It ran nearby. I worked as a sales trainer and speaker, so I was most of the time not here on the farm.

And my wife ran the farm. So the years went by. The animals were growing, and the amount of animals was growing, because we have about 45,000 square meters, so it's really a lot of space here. And the neighbors came and said, you have so much space, don't you want two goats?

And we said, yes, come on, give us the goats. And then they said, we have two pigs, don't you want two pigs? So it, it.

Kerri Lake: Obviously.

Andreasnussbaumer: It's the, yeah, the animals, the number raised and raised. Yeah, now we have currently about 150 animals. The pigeons, not calculated. Pigeons, by their own, there are about 150, 200. Yeah, but the rest, it's horses, donkeys, cows, pigs, sheep, goats… Llamas, nandus, ducks, geese, chickens, of course. Dogs, cats, yeah, a lot of animals here. And they are all rescued, so we take care of rescued animals. When people aren't able to take care of them anymore.

Kerri Lake: Beautiful, thank you.
