We’ve survived some kind of pseudo-sabbatical years due to Covid 19, which had fuelled new activities. I for one would still like to take up new ventures. I’ve discovered the benefits of attending online meetings, doing interviews, and acting as an individual speech coach in English. All that can be used to expand my services even further. Please go to www.vandaagenmorgen.nl to find my contributions as a columnist and as a book reviewer.

And also . . .it still is fun to watch my update half Dutch/half English (or Double Dutch as the case may be). https://youtu.be/JAtD7bN-o-M and also this advert, just for fun. It shows the double Dutch of the one and the proper English of the native speaker.
