In the world of expatriates, people move around often at short notice. We recently had to say goodbye to one of our valued volunteers, Darin Attard from Malta. Darin worked with us for a year as an assistant archivist.

Before he left, Darin surprised us with a contribution of his personal diary, kept during his time in the Netherlands as an accompanying spouse. The diary is an excellent example of the kind of material we aim to collect, containing a handwritten account of his expatriate life supported by postcards, invitations, entrance tickets and much more.

We wish Darin every success in the future!
