This looks like a small update,
But for us it’s hugeee! 🥹

At our first visit, there was almost no contact. He was bedridden, unable to communicate and barely wanted to look at people. After everything he had experienced, especially after receiving poor care before coming home, trust simply wasn’t there.

And now?

✨He smiles with us.
✨ He does activities with us.
✨ He passes the ball.
✨ He colors with water, paints and plays with different materials.
✨ He eats independently.
✨ He lets us know when he’s having a bad day.
✨ He can nod yes.
✨ Give us a thumbs up.
And sometimes he’ll pat us on the head, almost like his own little way of saying thank you. 🥹

They might seem like small things, but when you know where we started, they are huge.

And I am so incredibly proud of him.

This progress is absolutely not ours alone.

Jeandra, the speech therapist who worked so closely with us in the beginning, thank you.

And especially his sister, who has dedicated so much time to him. Always positive, fiercely involved in his care, open to trying things and even going out herself to get the materials we recommended so we could keep experimenting and discover what he was still able to enjoy and do.

And of course, our team.

Thank you for not giving up, especially on the days where it feels like we are taking a step backwards. Those days are part of the journey too.

He experienced a severe CVA and continues to live with its effects.

But quality of life?

That is still very much there. 💖

Sometimes the best kind of exploring isn’t about miles traveled — it’s about slowing down enough to really see what’s around you. 🌊✨

A quiet view. A salty breeze. A moment that reminds us we don’t always need more… just presence.

Where would you like to wander next? 💛

A random phone call turned into something beautiful.

Nienke Smits called me with an idea: creating meaningful social experiences for older adults who are still curious, social, independent, and full of life, but who sometimes miss the right kind of connection.

That’s how 𝘾𝙤𝙣𝙚𝙭𝙞𝙤𝙣 𝙙𝙞 𝙊𝙧𝙤 was born.

Our first edition will bring a small group together for a warm afternoon at 𝙌𝙪𝙚 𝙋𝙖𝙨𝙖 𝙊𝙧𝙖𝙣𝙟𝙚𝙨𝙩𝙖𝙙 with good food, meaningful conversation, and transportation included.

Because connection, culture, laughter, and feeling part of something should never stop with age.

If you or someone you love would enjoy an afternoon like this, send us a message 🤍
