New guy from the Netherlands

[Meurnik]

I allready posted my intro in the new-members section, but i think it would fit in here a bit better since i want to prospect for gold.

Hello everybody!

I am a 25 year old real-estate-management student from the Netherlands/Holland. I have allways been interested in and have been actually working outdoors and all the gold-mine shows on Discovery Channel kind of triggered me to do some research about goldprospecting. There is only one little problem, our tallest mountain is only 300m above sea-level and there is no gold whatsoever over here.

One of my new-years resolutions was to finally do my internship, and i have allways wanted to do it outside of the Netherlands. I had a 6 month internship planned to London (UK) one year ago, but it got cancelled because the company i was going to work for went bankrupt. Now i got this crazy idea to move to gold-territory so i can do my internship and feed my hunger to play in the dirt in my time off.

So i was wondering if there is anyone on this forum that could give me any advice where to go (gold-wise) and possible internships.

Regards Meurnik

My rehab is walking as much as possible to get left and right back to even. It's just that my left side has lost feeling and doesn't want to cooperate with what I want it to do. I'm a walking drunk without the alcohol. It's a pain when I'm trying to detect in a straight line. Lol. I use this method as god telling me where to go. Lol

Well, i am free again!!



Just a little scar, but the big damage is inside... not able to walk for 4-6 more weeks... big bummer!

But i can start with rotating foot and soft stretching without my weight on it... and tomorrow i will go to the gym because i have to go on a spinning-bike to cycle without any force on my tendon. Maybe i will do some other exercises as wel without using my left leg.

But i have done 7 weeks of recovery so far... now is the hardest part, being patient is not my best quality.

I'm the same way. Doc said to wean myself off the boot after week and a half. After appointment I took it off and haven't put it back on since.
Then last Saturday I twisted the ankle again when stepping off concrete to gravel. Was worried after it swelled up. Saw doc again Wednesday and he said all was good. Just need to stretch the tendons to get flexibility back. Makes it hard, since left side fights me every step.
Keep it up though. Next thing you know you'll be jumping off left foot before you know it.
