the process of change in van houtenlaan seems to be completed. almost all of the one semester students have left the city, new arrivals from all over the world have begun to settle down. it's not the same, that's for sure. and probably, it doesn't have to be. the challenge of living together should never become routine, especially not in a student house, i guess. anyway, this is how the community in good old vhl looked like at the end of february. a wonderful snapshot of internationality and the essence of everything here.
