ABOUT ME

My boyfriend Floris and I are easy, outgoing persons, I am creative and I love music, art, movies, cooking and reading.Floris is a very conceptual type of guy, he makes up design stuff in his head and is very good at making his own furniture.
We have been living together in Rotterdam for 7 years now and love it! We know all the nice little places to have a nice coffee or lunch or drinks in the evening. Not really clubbers though, we are more the bar types ;)
I like to hang out with friends for lunch or drinks, but I like to stay in with Floris as well and have a nice meal or watch a movie.
We have a grand piano(well not a concert piano,but still) in our home,so if you can play it you're most welcome to play!
We have a furry friend as well, a cat called Frits who roams the house so if you are allergic to cats you might want to head for a different couch!

PHILOSOPHY

Don't live to work, but work to live.

We can always have coffee, a drink, a nice meal (I'm an ok cook..and if you like to taste real Dutch food, you are invited, but I wouldn't mind to taste your best dish also ;) If work allows it we don't mind showing you the lovely city of Rotterdam, it has a lot to offer and we know where to go.
