    One of the caves at Jánovas

    Years ago, engineers started to make big drain channels near Jánovas that would belong to the future water reservoir. During construction, it was decided to stop the work. Thus it has remained as a useless cave of about 100 meters in length. It was 32 degrees Celcius outside, so I decided to cool off in…

    The church of Jánovas

    The church was used during the making of a film. That is why the paintings are still so clear … whether they are still original, I do not know.

In the many letters that her mother wrote to her father, a picture of the Netherlands in the fifties was described. Of course, Marjan now also gets a good impression of how her parents were ….
