So I’m going to live together for the first time in my life. I’m 36 years of age, about time to take the big step. An exciting prospect I must say. Just hope Heleen’s up for it.
So now I’m cleaning up, throwing away, giving away and packing. I’ve had to pack before when going on big adventures and I love this cleaning up. The stuff that stays somehow seems to matter.
Oh yeah and if you want some of this, give me a shout.
Nynke left our living community to live by herself and Johanka is going to leave us. So we decided to take them to Utrecht to a performance of Götterfunken and some food later on.
The trip was worth while making, because Nynke made us perform a position used in a Viagra advertisement.
Sorry to all you people going from Nijmegen to Utrecht yesterday afternoon. Just remember we had fun.
The illustrator of the group Götterfunken (Geert) lives in our community. As you can see on the picture I made Geert projects stills on a screen. He showed pictures, a movie clip on his camera and a lot of drawings.
It’s a tip to go and see them. The mix of contemporary music together with Geert’s drawings is really nice.
And afterwards the queens were taken to the ACU vegan and squatters restaurant in Utrecht. Awesome food and nice atmosphere.
Our first house. To look at. To see if we want to buy. A little romantic. Maybe this is the perfect house right away.
But no, Heleen and I were in agreement. This house is just too expense for it’s quality. Rooms too small, cracks in the wall, the house is too damp, a hole in the roof of the garage, paint bad, smell of cats, clashing styles, walls not insulated and a generally bad feeling about it.
So there we are. It has come to this. One year into a relationship and Heleen and I are starting to think about buying a house. We had our first mortgage “talk” with a bank and now we are looking at houses on funda.nl.
We are looking around the centre of Nijmegen.
So if you see something nice let us know.
Friends had to have a shed removed. Maybe you have experience with breaking stuff and maybe you like it. I like it…a lot.
A nice detail was that this shed had been used as a place where a certain product was sold. The product was sex. Terrible colors everywhere and tacky wallpaper.
I’ve taken two pictures and made a video of our garden. Enjoy!
I’ve moved again. These are the first pictures of my new homestead. It took my parents and a friend to move. Certain friends said I was disorganized and did not arrange everything in time, I disagree.
During the weekends I go around to my other friends. That means ‘][‘ and his family have some time to them selves. This weekend I went to Merijn. Merijn already lives at the same community I going to and as luck would have it they were having a day of doing odd jobs around the houses and the huge garden they have. I joined in and got to know everybody.
The 30th of March I was going to have my gate keepers conversation. Basically it means that two people sit down with you to discuss how the community works and what is expected of you. They also check to see if you are made of the right material. Since I was there Saturday it was decided to do the conversation right away. After half an hour it was decided that I was accepted into the community.
I got a text today:
Het lijkt ons erg leuk als je bij ons komt wonen
We would love for you to come live with us
