Host Melanie
I am a single mother of four children. In June 2023 my 2nd son died in an accident. I am a trained nurse and completed a degree in special and curative education. I worked professionally in both areas. The “FamilyHomes” network was created in the pain of separation from my husband. In the pain of losing my son, “YoungHomes” was born.
Since December 2022, I have been running the network full-time and accompanying people on a long-term basis.
My passion is physical exercise. I love skiing, mountaineering, playing tennis, running and cycling. I practice my faith as a Catholic Christian. In my early twenties I lived in a contemplative community for a while. I love listening to people and accompanying them personally. My greatest concern is to lead people in connection with God, themselves and their fellow human beings.
Education: Nurse, studied special and curative education, C-coach of the German Tennis Association
I am currently training to become a pilgrim leader. The blog "godpowder" reports on my pilgrimages.

House & Vicinity
The FamilyHome Munich is located approx. 30 kilometers west of Munich in the Fünfseenland on Lake Weßlinger. The mountains can be reached in an hour by car. The city of Munich can be easily visited by S-Bahn. The house offers a variety of recreational opportunities in the immediate vicinity (steamboat trips, culture, mountain tours, etc.).
Prayer room
The prayer room shapes my daily life. I would like to offer you to pray and sing with me. It is possible to spend the night in the prayer room. You thus remain in intimacy with God during the night.
Room & Kitchen
In the two guest rooms there is a single and double bed, a kitchen and a dining table available to guests. You enter the rooms via your own entrance. The separate bathroom is in close proximity to the two rooms.
In the summer months it is possible to accommodate children in the garden shed. The hut is equipped with an oven. You can also cook with fire there. The garden shed is the perfect place for fathers-children adventures.
