Students from Czechoslovakia, Belgium, Switzerland and Denmark help Dutch students with levelling the ground, repairing roads and other activities (a.o. using wheelbarrows) in Zeeland and Zeeuws-Vlaanderen. After work they eat together in a dining hall; in the evening they stay in the lounge; one of them is writing a letter to the people back home.
