Summary

Mandy is a young girl with a mild intellectual disability who is looking for a buddy to watch trains together, for example.

Detailed description

Who is Mandy?

Mandy is a 23-year-old woman with a mild intellectual disability. She loves horse riding and watching trains. Singer Jannes is her favorite. Mandy seeks a lot of closeness and always has to get used to new people. She needs a lot of clarity and confirmation. If she knows someone well and that person is clear to her, you can have a nice conversation with her. Otherwise she is often a bit quiet. When Mandy is angry, she can sometimes curse. It is important that you are clear and direct.

What is Mandy asking?

Mandy is looking for a volunteer who wants to go out with her every 2 weeks on Saturday morning/early afternoon. Once to the cinema, a nice outing or watching trains. Someone who comes especially for her. A volunteer who stands firm, who is clear and has patience. It would be nice if you also like trains.
