Summary
An elderly lady is looking for 'me-time' and a buddy to explore Wageningen with.Detailed description
Ellen is married but, due to circumstances, is alone for a large part of the day. She would therefore really like to have a buddy with whom she can go for a walk, explore Wageningen and have a nice chat. Due to back problems, she walks with a walker. Ellen used to work in healthcare. She moved to Wageningen a few years ago, together with her husband, to be closer to her daughter and grandchildren. Unfortunately, she does not have much contact with them at the moment. She spends the day doing household chores but also has a large puzzle on the table; she likes to do that.
