For that reason I have chosen to write about the swallow. When I was young, I had a birds nest not so far from my room window. I watched the birds almost every day; because those swallows always left their nests in October. As a child, I dreamt that they all flew together to a nicer place, where they were not so cold.

We didn't really do those beach walks in the summer but always when the sky started to turn gray and the days became colder. My sister and I always took out our warmest scarfs and played in the sand while my parents walked behind us. I really loved those Saturday or Sunday mornings where we were all together. I think October (when its not raining) is the perfect month to go to the beach for uitwaaien (to blow out), to walk in the wind and take a break and clear your head, relieve the stress or forget ones problems.
