Sitting here all by my lonesome tonight, reviewing some IBM e-learning on my laptop, there was a knock on the front door. My first ever knock on the door since I´ve been here!
Open the door and there is a typical Dutch couple: clean-shaven boy and well groomed, blonde girl in boots and tight jeans. With out-stretched hands.
They have come to meet and invite me to a party! Next Satuday at 9pm. A kind of house-warming. And I have luck on my side... they do not know anyone in Hilversum and besides from her sister in Utrecht, no-one in a 2 hour radius from here.
So maybe I have some new friends.
Something I have always taken for granted, but only now realise how difficult and precious it can be.
