Tim Himmes is gradually rebuilding his parents’ house in Schuld an der Ahr, after the deadly flooding that hit parts of western Germany in the summer of 2021.
“It’s like living on a building site. You never finish,” says Himmes, 23, referring to concrete slabs he is planning to use to pave the path to the house.
