Feriehus i Rotterdam

De bijeenkomst zal plaastvinden in mijn levendige zonnige atelier met een kopje thee terwijl we elkaar voorstellen. De therapiesessie begint met het uiten van inspiraties en impulsen op een CLAIREFONTAINE Naturel papierkarton, ecru 29x42 om 'minimalistische abstracte kunst' te creëren met behulp van verschillende technieken en materialen om structuur, kleur en abstractie te creëren. We zullen werken met kwalitatieve aardetintpaletten en ons meesterwerk een titel geven met behulp van onze verbeelding en onze verbale grenzen verkennen. Opmerking: U kunt mij schrijven om specifieke datums of groepslessen aan te vragen (kwaliteitstijd met collega's/ met vrienden, je partner of met familie)

We shall meet at a suitable point, depending on where you are coming from or are staying in The Hague. From there, I shall drive you to the dunes. The dunes surrounding The Hague are part of the National Park Hollandse Duinen. We shall have a walk of around 2 - 2.5 hours (8.0 kilometers / 5.0 miles) through this gorgeous landscape. The dunes offer a wide variety of vegetation and wildlife. Our route shall be partly on paved roads but for the greater part on sand. Here and there we need to climb the dunes. During the tour I will tell you about the history of this area as well as its importance both as a defense against the sea and as a source of our drinking water in this area. If we are lucky, we may encounter some of the larger wildlife roaming around in this area such as Konik horses, Galloway cows, deer and foxes. After we have finished our walk, I will drive you back to the meeting point. Please contact me regarding any questions or in case your desired date is not open in the calendar. Please contact me about any modifications or special wishes to customize your experience.

Each gin tasting experience lasts about 45 minutes. My distillery is small and bijou, so its like walking into someones home.... but with a bar and a still! What I cover in the tasting is how I set up the distillery, how I make gin and then we will taste each of the four gins and I will make you a gin and tonic of your favourite one. I encourage you to be inquisitive, to be curious and ask questions. The tasting experiences are always run in small groups so we can take our time and explore. It also means that no two tastings are the same! Then of course, you will have the opportunity to buy a bottle or a gift for a gin lover! Other things to note Make sure that you wear comfortable shoes! We are a working distillery and you will be standing for the tasting experience! There is no food for sale so if you think you will need a snack, please bring your own Water, gin, tonic and garnishes are provided! We have bathrooms on site too!

Together we are going to co-write a song from scratch and then we’re going to record (demoing) our fresh song in our recording studio. No experience required! It’s ok if you can’t play an instrument. What you bring along: Ideas for what you like to write about. Maybe some catchy songtitles. Try to write a poem of at least 16 lines. If you're able to write a Lyric, that's fine as well. It's OK to bring your own instrument. Pen and paper, or laptop, iPad or phone to write down, or hum, your lyric ideas. We have an acoustic guitar, electric guitars, bass guitar and piano in the house. What we will learn: - Co-write a song and all within a short timeframe of 3 hours. - Studio experience, by recording your vocals, or instrument, in our new COVID-19 proof vocal booth. - We record the basic song idea, so maynly 2 tracks, the chords and the melody (.. because that's all we can do in a short timeframe). - If you're interested, you can pickup some awesome sound-engineering tips from Ron. After our song has been recorded, I’ll do a quick mix for you to take home so you can play the song for your family and friends. How awesome! You have written your very own song!! Other things to note Allergy alert: We have a cat! Her name is Fara. She loves people and children, all good, but she is a problem cat from the animal shelter and attacks other animals that comes into the house big or small. So no dogs in or around the house. We have air conditioning. Wheelchair accessible house.

Delft is beautiful all year round and we will explore it together this time. I will meet you where the city used to begin, at the old gate to walk you in through the cozy streets towards the market square, where on Saturday and Thursday you can also have a chance to try the best local food. If you are still full of energy to explore I will slowly walk you further through the center towards the Old Church with a hidden garden - the best places to take beautiful shots. On the way, you will also find exhibitions or sometimes festivals with live music, art, and food. You will also see beautiful architecture, shops, and galleries with local crafts. By this time if we get a little tired, you will have a chance to visit the most unique cafe in Delft, which is often missed by visitors. There you will try the best dessert and coffee (or lunch), see a new showcase of an unusual art piece and get portraits in the unique interior (or terrace outside!). After this tour, you will get beautiful pictures and a useful bonus, I will mark on the map the best places to visit, to stay, to go for breakfast/lunch/dinner according to your personal preferences, for you to enjoy! Other things to note The best way to prepare is to have a good mood and a desire to explore! But of course, in order to look the best on the pictures, you will need (optionally) to prepare some looks of clothes that you like or contact me in advance to discuss it more detail.
