Achim Biston spent holidays at Embachhof for more than 40 years, long before the old farmhouse and guesthouse became Puradies. We asked him what he particularly remembers from those holidays.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lifestylehotels: What is your personal connection to the Madreiter family and the old Embachhof?<\/em><\/em><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Achim Biston: I have to go back in time a little. It all started when my parents were among the first guests at the old\u00a0Embachhof<\/a>\u00a0at the end of the 1950s. My mother told me that she and my father often went to Leogang in winter and summer, even before I was born. And it seems that I was actually born on one of these holidays. There is even postcard proof. So for me, the relationship to the place, the farm and the family is a particularly emotional one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

LH: What are your childhood memories of vacations in the Puradies in Leogang?<\/em><\/em><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

AB: That was a wonderful time. I can still remember exactly how it smelled in the old farmhouse. And how each step of the old wooden house creaked. For me, that is inseparably connected with vacations at the Embachhof<\/a>. In general, they were vacations full of freedom for us children, we were usually there for three weeks at a time. Actually, we also met the same guests every year, we children all knew each other. Accompanied by great adventures, whether in the barn or the stable, we had, for example, all our favorite calves, which we were also allowed to care for during our vacation – and first love stories could not be missing!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

LH: Later you also went to Embachhof with your wife and your three children?<\/em><\/em><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Achim Biston: After I hadn\u2019t been there for a while as a young adult, I then went back to Leogang <\/a>with my wife for the first time. She comes from the Lower Rhine, where the highest elevation is a molehill. It was an absolute experiment, because she said she always had to be able to see far to feel comfortable. But then we went to\u00a0Embachhof<\/a>\u00a0in winter and she liked it very much. She also immediately took the Embachhof and the Madreiter family to her heart. Later, with our own three children, it was almost like d\u00e9j\u00e0 vu for me \u2013 they basically experienced the same thing as I did. The Embachhof runs through our family life and is simply part of it. And that is wonderful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

LH: There certainly are many memories there!<\/em><\/em><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Achim Biston: And how! I think our eldest daughter actually learned to walk there because she really wanted to pick up a pear that had just fallen from the pear tree. And our youngest, when she was very small, adored Phillip Madreiter \u2013 her first love, so to speak. I also have fond memories of the mountain tours with Wasti (editor\u2019s note: senior boss Sebastian Madreiter) to peaks and alpine pastures. And Michael\u2019s grandma, who was such a warm-hearted and hard-working woman and cooked us delicious meals. It wasn\u2019t just like being on holiday, it was like coming home!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

LH: When have you planned your next holiday at Puradies?<\/em><\/em><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Achim Biston: We might want to go to Leogang this summer. I don\u2019t know the complete new building and extension yet, so of course I\u2019m very curious to see what has been done. And I\u2019m especially looking forward to seeing the\u00a0Madreiter family<\/a>\u00a0again and reliving old memories together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
