Dear all,
We’re in the midst of the newest addition to the terrible, terrible soap opera called “suffering the consequences of living on top of one of the largest natural gas fields in Europe, in a remote and forsaken part of The Netherlands dubbed ‘Energy Valley’, without backup by authorities that combine expertise with alertness and compassion.”
I’m trying to find ways to help us move out of here ASAP. At the moment, my ears and my body suffer from low frequency noise, on top of all the other problems that have amassed over the last years because of this dead end place. I am trying to work away from home as much as possible, taking my work with me in our tattered old camper van, working from homes of friends outside of this noise-infested village, etcetera. But it is a right old mess, and I am very, very tired. My heart aches, for my own little outside story which is getting worse and worse, and for the bigger outside story, which seems to have taken a turn for the worse as well.
I am in fighting mode, and hope to get back to full creative mode sometime this year.
Please send good vibes. I need all the help I can get.
