Nice living environment. People look out for each other
Auto-translated to English by AIMy
Auto-translated to English by AIIt remains a nice and quiet neighbourhood, and those young families are entitled to that just as I am. 60 years ago, we also came to live there with 5 children, and now everyone has flown the nest except me! But the memories remain.
