Quiet but still

It's a nice little square, a bit quiet though. Occasionally we get together. We look out for each other and that's nice. Feeling at home somewhere is important.

Exceptionally beautiful

Social, compassionate, cosy and beautiful. A small village in Gelderland. We know each other. You can count on your fellow villagers and especially your neighbours. Whether it's for a small errand, walking someone else's dog, or watering the plants when someone is on holiday. And the children are involved in everything and look after each other's children. We are there for each other! There is always something to do. Every year something special with the neighbourhood. We keep the neighbourhood tidy together. Would never want to leave here.

Neighbourliness...connection...cosiness

Young and old mix with each other. The neighbours are there when something is up...emergency or party, it doesn't matter. We are there for each other. The greenery here is well maintained. Cars don't drive fast. Children can play outside safely. People look out for each other here. There is only a bus connection here. There are no shops, only a local restaurant that the villagers use for meetings, parties or a cosy game of billiards.

Wonderfully exciting living in a natural environment with lots of greenery

A lovely neighbourhood/village, where we have been living for 4 years this year. Immediately accepted as villagers. Helpful neighbours who are there for each other when needed. But also cosy, like raising the flag on special days... a street BBQ and in winter putting up the fairy lights under the guise of a snack and a drink by the fire pit. Neighbourhood kids who occasionally come to the door... "Do you have a biscuit?" Just a feeling of home on the street and in the village.
