English - He zell ick ... not sure if that's the best pronunciation, but it's mine for now.
Gezellig is a Dutch word which has no English translation. It is a beautiful word which encompasses the whole experience of being around loved ones, having a good time, and a nice chat -- it means warm, friendly conversation , happy times, and family all at once. I have had several gezellig experiences while in Holland... all with Leen's amazing family.
Hi there, you are probably back in Cape Town by now and it was wonderful being able to see you when you and Leen visited.
ReplyDeleteGecellig is a pretty cool word, I'll have to figure out how to sneak it into a conversation. :)
