About Us
From the big city to the island, from a film set to an organic farm. We could tell some funny and emotional stories about how our lives have changed. Instead, we have written a very personal book about us and our first years here on Ærø. If you feel like it, take a look or come by our farm shop.

Contents
A married couple, the small Baltic island and great happiness
Organic farm instead of film set: from the big city to the Danish South Seas
Hyggelig idyll, extensive beaches, deep blue water: Silvia and Guido Weihermüller don't hesitate for long when the opportunity arises to emigrate to the Danish Baltic Sea island of Ærø. They leave city life, friends and family behind and face new challenges in nature. Because they are doing many things for the first time: self-sufficient gardens, forests and meadows need to be cultivated. And then they come up with the idea of growing wine. A personal and inspiring book in search of a new freedom.
What are we waiting for? A bold new beginning in Denmark
Silvia and Guido have been toying with the idea of emigrating for a long time - someday, which means more than ever. And then everything suddenly happens very quickly. They fall in love with the small Danish island of Ærø, sell their house and put their careers on the brakes. The film production company's office is promptly closed, many private connections are cut and a fresh start is made. Without further ado, they swap the film set for an organic farm with six hectares of land, a self-sufficient garden, fruit trees, a small forest and two horse pastures. Instead of filming, the field is ploughed and the catering is now their own vegetable harvest.
Script for a new life: sea, nature, mindfulness and self-sufficiency
In this emigration story, Silvia and Guido look honestly, humorously and full of emotion at the new and unknown, at what awaits them, at the difficulties of having to find their way in a foreign country, at the hurdles they have to overcome. But they also report on the real happiness of emigration, of warm encounters, new friendships and how, as typical city dwellers, they begin to shape life on the island for themselves. An authentic, captivating and motivating book that shows that the adventure of emigration can be successful!
