How do older generations make use of public green spaces to improve their health and wellbeing? Thanks @nerimankilinc1 for sharing interesting findings from your research with Turkish older generations in the Hague!
Such a nice start to the week – received an email from a third-generation Azorean in North America telling me that she felt inspired by my book. Thank you to all who shared their stories and made the book possible!
