My story isnot "unique". I reckon it's very typical of the children who came with our parents, in the 50s and 60s. I am enjoying following this "one last look" at how we fared. It is logical that Sigrid and Conny come with the perspective of Dutch journalists, who have to make their reports interesting and colourful enough to please their audience. They've certainly taken on a LOT! I do hope that they get to the bottom of how our parents' "plunge into the unknown" has had many benefits, after the hardships. Feels to me like I've been allowed to go "outside and play, in the sunshine" and open spaces of Australia, while understanding how gezellig, cosy and culture-rich the Netherlands can be. So nice to have been able to go back to, 5 times (so far) for a little while.
