De Plantage is a bright, elegant brasserie beside Artis where great design.

One of the greatest contemporary galleries in the world. You're welcome.

View from my studio. I love the view from my studio. It is at the University campus and has a great architectural mix of old and new buildings. It is special to have such a large area in the centre of small Amsterdam where it is quiet, no traffic and no stores. 

Old parking garage turned canal bar.

My favourite and neighbourhood bookstore. With a good selection of books and a balanced selection of magazines. If possible I buy my books here. I want to support small business.
