”In the village, there is today a strong association life. We who live here have most things – beautiful nature, a lake to swim in, preschool, school, and fantastic forest areas to walk and pick mushrooms in. What we lack, however, is a daily meeting place that can serve as a hub for the residents. In the countryside, such a place has historically been – and still often is – a smaller grocery store, convenience store, or kiosk. A place where you can meet familiar or unfamiliar neighbors, have a cup of coffee in the sun, sit down and read a good book, or just buy an ice cream with the children during the summer vacation.”
