CURRENT MISSION

There's no way back in life so you better enjoy it!

ABOUT ME

We are:
Channah, a 24-year-old female living in Amsterdam. I am a singer, songwriter and play with a band. Singing my own songs (under the influence of Leonard Cohen, Adele and Joni Mitchell) and trying hard to earn my living as a musician.
Next to this my interests are reading as much as I can, watching movies, going out with friends, cycling through Amsterdam and...(of course) travelling.
My boyfriend Ruben is 25 years old, studying Brain & Cognitive Sciences at the University of Amsterdam. He will graduate this summer and start as a PhD. student investigating aesthetic preferences in humans. His interests include motor cycling, rock climbing, his Fender Telecaster, movies, music and anything brain related!
Together we'd like to see the world. And more (Preferably by motorbike ;) ).

PHILOSOPHY

It's our goal to stay open and interested in anyone we talk to. This way we keep exploring and developing ourselves while making new friends and plans so we can enjoy life in its purest form.
