Wave After Wave...Slowly Drifting

If you read this title is the first thing that comes to mind also the song from Mr. Probz from 2014. I remember when I had just reached Sint Martin for the first time and I had my two interns in the car and they were playing this song.

At the end of the song we had reached a fantastic beach at sunset and everything felt surreal and beautiful with the sun dropping into the ocean.

This week when I had reached the rocky East Side of Aruba and I saw the power of the waves crashing into the rocks again. My mind was slowly drifting again.

Or was that more because of the book that I was reading?

I was reading a Dutch book called 'Mocro Maffia' by Wouter Laumans and Marijn Schrijver which is about the Dutch mobster scene in Amsterdam where a couple of years back the mob war was on in the Moroccan scene. Liquidations were all over and the comparisons to the Italian Mobster scene were surely there.

Violette, power, drugs, money and liquidations..that is what this book is about and it is a true story…

And it starts with the gunfight of the rappers Mr. Probz and Flex. Which coincidentally the music passed by while I was reading this book and seeing the waves crash in again.

I never have the patience to read when I am at home, but while staring over the ocean I can read hours and hours. And so it happens I am already starting a new book again. But books and music don't really go together.

Books and wave after wave on the other hand are just fine. Time to slowly drift away again.
