"Cards are very suitable for pausing for a moment"
I am a father of two daughters and
I live with my fiancé in Amsterdam.
In my commercial role within logistics I focus on pharmaceutical transport. Outside of work I enjoy sports such as running and boxing,
and I enjoy spending time with my family. Finally
I love to discover new places, in my own neighborhood and city, but preferably in South America.
I am an ambassador for Stories to Cherish....
Because I lost my mother at a young age – I was six – I have experienced how memories can fade and precious, intimate moments can evaporate. For me, it is very comforting to hear stories about her, especially the everyday peculiarities that typify her. The story cards also give me the opportunity to pass on my mother's story to my daughters, so that her memory will live on with them and we can have valuable father-daughter conversations.
Stories (can) help with grief, because...
Stories form a bridge between the present and the past. They connect us with the person we miss and offer comfort, allowing us to feel close to them again . In this way, memories remain alive and give meaning to our daily lives.
