Mooie avonturen!
Hey Nik, Klinkt alsof jullie weer mooie avonturen hebben beleefd, moet ook maar eens leren dat soort verhalen te schrijven. Marieke en ik zijn net terug van bijna een maand in Azië, dit keer hebben we Birma en Thailand bezocht. Vooral Birma is een ontzettende aanrader! En jou volgende stop? Sierra Leone?! WTF? Je weet ze wel uit te zoeken, lekkere vakantiebestemming is dat... Dikke kus, ik bel jullie zodra onze telefoonlijn het weer doet... Daan. PS Er staat altijd een bedje klaar in Amsterdam, kom je nog eens langs?!
