At just five years old, John Brink lived through the bombing of Rotterdam, the Nazi occupation, and the devastating Hunger Winter. In this must see podcast, John shares firsthand memories of what it was like to be a child during World War II in the Netherlands — the fear, the hunger, and the moment the Canadian soldiers arrived to liberate his country. It’s a raw, intimate account of survival, resilience, and hope which kickstarted John’s journey to Canada to live in the land of his heroes.
