FAMILY MATTERS

The warmest greetings from beautiful Poland!

Where we enjoy all the challenges, the reactions to our work, the many contacts, and the gratitude that we fortunately see so often. We had not much possibility to relax, really, but we hope to catch up with that in mid-July with two weeks in the Netherlands, traditionally on the farm!

Jadwiga has almost, but already successfully, concluded the school year. And is busy adapting her electives to a more non-science profile. Jonathan is still in China, now almost 7 months, where he seems to be finding his way more and more.

And next to them and Kamila we have our "student children" - we are happy for the impact we get to have on their lives, and vice versa! It makes us grateful.
