I am a Dutch journalist, photographer.. composer-singer and video-filmmaker. I was born in Amsterdam traveled to many corners of the world .

Love to play one of my many guitars and sing with it from Jazz into blues..
Cooking is my passion and I love to share a nice meal with you..
I cook from Italian to Asian and i eat meat but love also fish and big healthy salades.
I always cook for my guest as a welcome, so I expect you to bring the wine.
I cook meat and fish so just to know if you are a vegetarian.

I hosted until now many people and couples...i have little references so see for yourself.

I have simple rules:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
No copy and paste request with "hey" As I have a name :))))

If you have a partner-friend with you show me his/her profile as well

I cook a diner-you bring a wine(s)

I don't host guest younger than 30 years exceptions may apply but most of younger age are not on CS for the experience but mostly just for a free place to stay...which is nothing bad but does not work for me.
