Summary
We are looking for a friend who can visit a nice and modest lady born in 1942 once a month.Detailed description
Linda came to live in Wageningen 8 years ago. Then came corona. She says that she has been able to build up few contacts because of this. Her daughter also lives in Wageningen but she has serious health problems. Linda is very worried about that. She herself walks with a walker; that way she can visit her daughter and go shopping. But she would also like to have contact with others. She is looking for a female friend who visits her once every 4 weeks and with whom she can have a nice conversation. If the contact goes well, she might want to increase the frequency and possibly undertake activities with her friend. She is creative and handy with needle and thread. Furthermore, she is well informed about current affairs.
