"Our family home holds a very special place in my heart. It was built with love from the ground up, it's never belonged to anyone but our family, so every wall, every corner carries our history. We grow food on the surrounding land, and it's always been a place of comfort and togetherness. Although my grandparents have now passed, my uncle, who lovingly cared for them for many years, continues to look after the home."
