Dinner with Marianne & Henning: Community Collective in Roskilde
Roskilde
Danish, English
Here, you’ll have dinner in a senior collective community with Marianne and Henning.
You will take a 30 minute train to Roskilde, a short walk through the forest, and there you will arrive. The community was designed and built in 2009 with a focus on architecture and collective living, it has a waiting list of several years to join. It is inspired by the Canadian architect Monica Leung's research on housing for active seniors in Japan, Holland, Canada, and Denmark. It’s a community designed and run by the people who live there. They have shaped it all together: how to share spaces, how to make decisions, how to create their lives together.
On Friday the 28th it's open :)
Marianne is known in the community for her cooking, this time she’s making an Italian meal (her favourite). Together with her husband Henning, this is what they really love to do: making good homemade food, showing their life, and sharing around the table.
About Marianne & Henning: Marianne and Henning are community leaders who have been married for over 50 years. They love to share stories about their lives together, their home, and their secrets to a long and happy marriage.
Marianne is a home cook with a passion for food and has spent years experimenting with new recipes, especially Italian cuisine. She is known among friends for her cooking and now focuses on bringing people together over food and conversation. Henning enjoys showing their way of living in a senior collective where they balance community life with personal space.
They believe that “we live in new ways now that we are getting older” and their main focus is finding the joy of life.
