Verhalen

Aranka has done two years of volunteer work at the Sarphatihuis as preparation for her medical studies.
Anne Coos Vuurmans is retired and has been a volunteer for the public at Artis ever since. She informs visitors about animals and plants.
Johan Sturm is the language coach of Kang Li from China. Kang moved to the Netherlands three years ago to live with her Dutch husband. He only speaks English with her, so she went looking for someone to practice Dutch with.
