in the media again

Not only have we made the papers but we were also recently on Dutch television. If you’d like to see more about life here (and hear about us in Dutch), then go to PREMtime and click on the grey box on the left side (and hopefully it will work).

We’re the first people he visits, so we’re in the first five minutes of the program. The person in the blue apron who first appears is Br. Luc and the second blue aproned person is Br. Sjoerd. The other two people who speak also live in the main house (Vaderhuis) like me. After the first five minutes the show doesn’t say anymore about us, so you’ll probably want to stop when they get to the hairdressing salon unless you really want to be exposed to Dutch television...

Hey Brenda, that was really neat! I saw where you live and study!! Cool. Not a very nice area in the city, though. But like Sjoerd said, the contrast is remarkable then, right? Makes you humble to live among the down and out. I got a bit of a chuckle from the older lady who after being asked do you live here...said, No! I volunteer... in an insulted voice! Ha,ha!
