Who are you and what do you do
when you're not being interviewed for the neighbourhood association?I'm Peter Siegenthaler.
When I'm not giving interviews,
I'm out in nature a lot, walking, reading,
or volunteering somewhere. -
Complete the sentence:
“Robehuuse is, for me, ...”home.
Here I'm surrounded by people I know,
people you value,
where we have a village life and a market. -
What's your favourite place in Robehuuse –
and why exactly there?I feel at home in the whole neighbourhood,
whether it's Rössliplatz or anywhere else.
People know each other here,
and I have contact with other people.
We greet each other and talk,
and there's a neighbourhood life
that I've valued for more than 43 years. -
Hand on heart:
What sometimes gets on your nerves about Robehuuse?Stubborn people
who won't let other opinions stand
and don't listen. -
You get 10,000 francs and have to spend it all on Robehuuse.
What do you do with it?I'd celebrate a huge village festival
across all of Robehuuse. -
What's something you're really good at
that almost nobody knows about you?I'm good at organising.
I really like working very precisely,
so it works out. -
What would someone wake you up for in the middle of the night?
You can always wake me
when someone needs help. -
Are you team dog, cat, elephant or unicorn?
Team people.
-
Which well-known person would you like to have a coffee with
on Rössliplatz –
and what would you talk about?Petra Ivanov.
She's a writer,
and we'd probably talk about her books,
which I love to read. -
Why so much commitment?
Because it simply makes me happy.
I like being in contact with people.
People say thank you,
and something good always comes back.
That gives me energy and joy. -
Who from Robehuuse should we interview next,
and why?Fritz Hofer.
Before he retired he was the caretaker
at the Robehuuse schoolhouse
and knows a great many stories and people
in Robehuuse and Wetzikon.
