Audio recording ‘Who else could have done it?” as broadcasted in the radioprogram for international ‘Dutchbuzz’ on Den Haag FM, every Tuesday from 09.00-10.00 pm.

Currently, I am working as a caregiver for a 90-year-old-lady. She is a wonderful character, very advanced within her era of cultural conditioning, bright and clear in her reasoning.
