There was little to do for a kid in that small fishing village. You needed to drive half an hour to get to the cinema. I missed enjoying exterior with my neighbor in Hilversum. The summer time holidays had been at all times splendidly lengthy. Three months after which I used to be again in Hilversum. After finding out Language and Literature, I studied Chinese language and Portuguese, I returned to the Netherlands on the age of twenty-two to search for work. That was troublesome in Spain, unemployment was excessive.

Motorcycling is improbable, it is that feeling of freedom, you might be tremendous cellular and there’s additionally adrenaline concerned. On a motorbike you may have a really robust feeling that you just belong to a neighborhood. Motorcyclists all say good day to one another. At all times elevate your hand. Final November I acquired my bike license and now I journey a Husqvarna 701 SM. That stands for supermoto, a mixture between a cross and a avenue bike. It drives nice, I can transfer very simply with it.
Tomorrow
As soon as every week I journey my bike from Hilversum to my work in Zeist. I usually drive after work and through the weekend. To the Lek or a tour of Breukelen and Loenen aan de Vecht. Beautiful alongside the water. The environment of Hilversum are stunning. I dwell on the Bosdrift and likewise stroll on the Hoorneboegse Heide virtually day by day. My purpose is to sooner or later dwell in Spain once more. Folks dwell in a much less hurried life there. Not that mañana, mañana is my fashion. I’ll at all times proceed to come back to Hilversum. Life is actually good right here, simply that climate…
