Natural Dutch garden in Castricum

Digging a Hole

I felt a stomachache when I woke up. I ate too much the previous night; therefore, I didn’t eat food till dinner. I asked Jan to help me solve a trouble about health insurance. He called a support center then he explained my situation in Dutch. The cause was that I haven’t get an immigrant visa yet. To purchase health insurance, it is needed. The waiting time for getting through to someone of support was long so he told me the story of his trip to Russia. I helped Jan to build a garden afterward. I dug a hole and put on stones. It was fantastic. I had avocado pasta for dinner. I went to bed before 11pm.
