This lady (72 years old) feels a bit lonely. She likes people with a positive outlook.

Both she and her husband are experiencing some health issues, but she prefers not to talk about them. She'd much rather just have a nice cup of tea or coffee with someone, a chat, go to town, or take a walk. That would provide some distraction and cheer her up; that's what she wants.


Both of her children and grandchildren do not live nearby and she no longer has any friends with whom she can have regular contact.


She speaks Dutch well enough for conversation. She enjoys listening to music, sitting on a terrace, and taking walks. She completed secretarial training in Morocco.


She would like a (not too young) woman as a friend, preferably once a week on Tuesday or Thursday afternoon.

Getting there

About Humanitas Ontmoet

Humanitas is there for people who like to go outside now and then, but can't do that themselves without a buddy (anymore). By doing activities with a buddy, they can (again) keep in touch with society.
