Engelse Werk Park

Through the drizzle to the train station and off to Zwolle I went. To a park that literally translates to ‘English Work’. While it sounds like a very industrial name, it’s quite the opposite. Nature tralis, water spots and many cool trees are among the things you can find at this park and it’s biggerContinue reading “Engelse Werk Park”

Portraits

While I’m never going to become a professional anything… I do like having a go at the things that professionals do and then with my own twist. Deafblind people can… I just have to take a different path to get to the same destination. Dogs are more oblivious to what’s happening when you take theirContinue reading “Portraits”

King’s Day Flevotrucker’s Tour

I think the truck tour is one of my favorite parts of King’s day. Usually each driver plays chauffeur to a child – many of which have a disability.

A Little Light for Christmas

This is a story about light — the kind that shows up softly, even when you’re not sure it will. When I was sixteen, I moved away from home for the first time.

When Blogging Fails, Dreams Deliver

Dear Readers, I wasn’t planning on writing a blog this month.
