Peaceful and cosy

The Vollenhove neighbourhood has a bad reputation, but over the years there has certainly been improvement, especially in the flat where I live. Happy with the little park behind the flat and easily accessible by bus, bike and car. Hygiene is up to the residents themselves; less should be thrown off the balcony or left unsafely in the stairwell.
