In our street there's a lot of togetherness, we have cosy evenings. Last night we had a New Year's drink. Very cosy... Also in summer such an evening. But the most important thing for me is... as a neighbourhood we are there for everyone. Whatever happens... Togetherness.

Auto-translated to English by AIWe don't have much contact with the neighbourhood because everyone keeps to themselves
Auto-translated to English by AIThe people are involved with each other. And that's how it should be. Because better a good neighbour than a distant friend!! Public transport connections are poorly arranged. Sometimes I have a 1-hour transfer time... Hope that a train station will come to Lemmer for Kampen and Zwolle.. Would be great for Frisian students
