The host
The host
Sandra and Jeroen welcomed their first guests to their Oude Zondagschool in 2014, and two years later they moved back to the Achterhoek themselves. Their little 1950s farmhouse was made energy-neutral. The Oude Zondagschool was first made highly energy-efficient and was subsequently made even more sustainable. As of 2021, the house has been disconnected from the gas supply and is now heated by a heat pump.
