In January 2019, we four siblings – Laura, Jakob, Anjoulie and Akbar – together with our partners – Philipp, Lisa-Mia and Christoph – took over Alharía from our father Homayun. Homayun lived and ran the Alharía together with friends for 35 years before and since our birth or early childhood we spent several years – or at least one or several months a year – at the farm. Meanwhile our centers of life lie in Germany and Austria.
The Alharía was during all our lifes our holiday resort and second home, the place where we visited our father, learned manual, agricultural and forestry activities and lived with nature. We love this farm, the surrounding area, our neighbors, the challenges and the lifestyle associated with it, and enjoy watching as this love increasingly reaches our in total eight children.
Therefore, we decided to take over the Alharía and continue to see it flourish. At the same time we can barely spend more than 6 months a year at the farm at the moment and are looking for ways to keep the finca busy all year round. To do this, we build on one of its well-known strengths: attracting people looking for exchange, inspiration and entertainment, enjoying life with nature and tranquility, having a passion for handcraft, agricultural or forestry activities or look for a break from their everyday lives want to join the Alharía.
