Knowing each other really well. According to Jan and Marie, that is the great secret of Austerlitz. You grew up with some of the villagers, others you have met throughout your life. And when you need each other, it goes without saying that you give each other a hand. Whether that is in the garden, with a drive to nearby Zeist or by cooking every now and then. Because Marie and Jan agree on this: “Austerlitzers are there for each other in good and bad times. Yes, actually always.”
