Hi all, I joined CS quite recently as I had a very remarkable and positive experience not too long ago myself. Thus I thought I do something back to the community.

Former Amsterdam city center tour guide and finance consultant turned full time wine expert (merchant, trader, salesman, connoisseur, trainer and wine lover) following my lifelong passion. Living in the Dam for 20 years. Often abroad for work but loves traveling for leisure as well, mostly Europe with the occasional overseas trips.

I am outgoing, friendly, pretty down to earth and relaxed. I’m clean and respectful and like meeting people from all over the world tbh. Love music in general from Bach to Rammstein, having coffees (nothing beats my pour overs), brewing Sencha, opening a bottle of champagne for no particular reason, eating, bike rides and city walks.

I also love day trips just outside of Amsterdam (beach, dunes, parks, other towns nearby).

Having said all this I’m guessing I’ll be doing this quite sporadically as I run a tight agenda, often being out of the house / country but hey who knows. For now only 1 person at the time but open to 2 ppl if vibe is good.

Reach out if you have any questions :)
