At the end of February I left the Netherlands for a few weeks to run a writing retreat and some workshops in Cura\u00e7ao. I traveled with just my small carry-on luggage. Who would have thought that I would only be able to return to the Netherlands three months later, after spending almost two months in Miami? Traveling in this time and age is an adventure. Hereby a report.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>

Goodbye Dad!<\/h2>\n<\/div>

My dad was left in good company. He has a great new (American) care taker, but he is also very happy with his new robot dog Waldo. Robot dog? Yes, I had no idea they existed, but the Alzheimer’s Association let us know that they are given away for free to older people in the USA. The dog responds to sound and Dad clicked with Waldo immediately, as you can see in the video. There is also a cat version. Could this be a good solution for lonely elderly people in your area?<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>
