The last neighbourhood party where everyone came to get to know each other even better
Auto-translated to English by AIThe people here are really sweet and super friendly. It's also nice and quiet in the woods to walk your dog. Everything is accessible (shops, supermarkets, etc.). It's quite clean here, but sometimes I also clean up here and there with friends! For the forest and a better environment. More rubbish bins would be good here.

There are shops nearby, a few villages and towns reachable by public transport, and there are shopping centres and those things. Very quiet neighbourhood. If there's any hustle and bustle, it's either the fair or annual markets. Lots of nature, very large walking forests and those things.
