Hubert Burgstaller from Unterweikertshof will soon be seen on TV across Germany: The 39-year-old participates in the dome show "Farmer Seeks Wife".
The reason for taking part in the show was Corona, as he says: "Recently there were simply no opportunities to go out and make acquaintances."
Unterweikertshofen
- The dome show "Bauer sucht Frau" is one of the long-running hits on German television.
In October, the 17th season of the successful RTL format starts, which attracts millions in front of the screen every Monday at prime time at 8:15 p.m.
Since Whit Monday it has been clear that a participant from the Dachau district will also go in search of his “heart farmer”, as RTL calls it: Hubert Burgstaller from Unterweikertshofen.
The 39-year-old had applied to RTL for a place in the program last autumn, as he reported to the local newspaper.
However, he did not seriously expect that he would make it through the many casting rounds: "I thought I was way too normal for the show."
In fact, the makers of the show were convinced by the 39-year-old part-time farmer who works full-time for a company health insurance fund.
Burgstaller suspects “that the topic of bees has hit quite a bit”.
Burgstaller has - in addition to 15 hectares of green and arable land, two hectares of forest, four mother pigs, 40 piglets, 40 chickens, a cat, ducks, geese and turkeys - also 30 bee colonies, for which he has even received awards.
Friends had the idea
The 39-year-old says the idea of taking part in the show came from friends: "Hubert, you do it," they said.
He himself was there right away, because: “What can happen to me?
That I get to know my dream woman! ”He, who has been single for two years and has an aversion to online flirt portals, has“ always enjoyed watching ”the show.
According to Burgstaller, the fact that he is in the situation of having to search for a partner via a TV format is primarily due to Corona: “There were no events, nothing took place.
As a single you simply have no opportunities to go out and make friends. "
What does his dream woman have to bring with her to win his heart? She should be a “completely normal, nice, natural partner” who “can also be crazy”. He himself promises not to "put on a show" on the show. He will just be what he is: "A completely normal outdoorsman!"
He is already looking forward to the upcoming shooting, which he has of course informed his employer about and for which he will take days off.
"A crazy story" is all, he says with a laugh.
His parents, with whom he runs the local farm, are fully behind him after initial skepticism.
Friends in the fire brigade and the other clubs in which the sociable bachelor is a member would also keep their fingers crossed.
Hubert Burgstaller now wants to leave at least one club - with the help of the program: the boys' club.
Only unmarried men are allowed to take part there.
