When I come to Voordorp, it really feels like a village. People look at you, say hello, children play in the street, and there's a lot of greenery. It's also car-free, which makes it nice and quiet on the street! Once there was a fight between a bunch of street youths, but I don't think they were from the neighbourhood. Because I hardly ever see people hanging around on the street, which I also like. My room is practically on the pavement and I never have any trouble with anyone. I also come from a village and was a bit afraid of the city's hustle and bustle, but it's not like that at all, so that's really great.
