My workplace is my home. Namely, I run a small Bed and Breakfast enterprise called Villa Ottilia in Otepää, South Estonia.
Otepää is best known for its winter – actually the town proudly calls itself The Winter Capital of Estonia. Summer is nice too. And spring and autumn. So there are actually four good seasons that lure customers to us.
At the moment we are having none of those four. I guess the next three weeks are the dullest time of the year, both visually and business-wise. Nothing happens. And it is ugly outside. Snow is melting fast, making puddles of sloshy sleet.
So, there is not much work for me at the moment – at least not in the hotel sector. However, somebody forgot to tell it to the family dog, who considers himself a self-appointed guard dog. He sits on the garden wall protecting the house and waiting for the appearance of any customers.
It seems that some of us just cannot take it easy!
