Peter van der Mast (57) is a running buddy for blind and visually impaired individuals. They go running together in the park every week. “I enjoy helping others to stay active. Plus, I get to hear the most interesting stories and my fitness is improving all the time.”
Mohamed, who learned the Dutch language as a newcomer himself, now helps other newcomers as a language coach.
“I live in the Spaarndammerbuurt, a multicultural neighborhood. Many people speak limited Dutch. I want to make a difference and help people improve their situation.”
I am a buddy at Running Blind Amsterdam. I guide fellow runners who cannot (or no longer) see well, so that they can still go running. The sport we share together. I am the eyes for a fellow runner, so to speak.
