On my mission I kept my journals in two spiral bound notebooks. They weren’t the sturdiest of journals, but they worked out well. They sat on my bookshelf for decades and I never looked at them once, but years ago I pulled them out to look something up and I have no idea where the first book has gone. I have pulled the second book out from time to time, but I have never been able to find the first book. I decided that it is time to transcribe my second book before it falls apart. It is my hope that the first book will show up at some point, it has to be in this house somewhere.
If it doesn’t show up, I am just glad I have the second one, most of my first journal was my moaning about how home sick I was and how much I missed Maurine.
I will copy my journal as best I can and if I need to add any clarification [I will add that in square brackets].
My first journal covered my time in the LTM and my first city of Turnhout. This book picks up in Vilvoorde in the summer of 1978.
