Netherlands
participants
To bring together internationals with local Dutch people with a disability. The goal is to learn from eachother and have a good time together :)
We gathered with a small group of internationals to join the bi-monthly 'gele knalpot' night. This night is organised by volunteers to gather people with disabilities from the area and to do an activity together. They were looking for more volunteers to help with the activty adn socialize with the disabled people.
It was a very lovely night. The disabled people were really impressed to meet people from different countries. The French girl was told about all the French cheeses they knew and all of them were enthousiastically taught Dutch. We could help them cross the numbers during the bingo and they loved talking to us. In the end they were asking us to come again next time and told us that they had had a very special night. It was really great and we're considering to make this a structural monthly event.
