Vacation rentals in South Holland

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.

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 will start the workshop with a warm welcome in my home, a coffee or tea and we will get to know each other a little bit. I will also explain you all about leathercrafting and the steps we will take during the workshop. When we are ready to start, you will each be provided with a piece of leather and all tools necessary for making your specific leathercraft. Together, we will work step by step, me checking every step to assure that it has been done perfectly and help resolve any issues that you may have throughout the process, making sure that you pay special attention to all the little yet important details necessary for creating a perfect piece. At the end of the workshop, I will be teaching you how to carve your name or initials on leather, so you could create your own personalized brands on your unique products! PLEASE NOTE: To make sure you will have a professional and finished product at the end of the workshop, you will go home with a product I created before, as shown in the pictures. In case you would like to create and take home your own product, please look at the other design workshops or write me a message for more information! Other things to note: *If the timetable does not work for you, message me and we reschedule! *The workshop is also offered in Spanish and Dutch! *Orders of specific designs are accepted. Additional costs may apply.

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.

In the beginning, I welcome you to my home where the workshop will take place. We’ll then get to know each other better, chatting over a cup of tea or coffee :) The workshop starts with me explaining about leather and introducing the basic tools required for leatherwork. You will each be provided with a piece of leather and all tools necessary for making your specific craft of choice. Together, we will work step by step, me checking every step to assure that it has been done perfectly and help resolve any issues that you may have throughout the process, making sure that you pay special attention to all the little yet important details necessary for creating a perfect piece. The workshop will be finalized by me teaching you to carve your name on your individual creation and thus, creating your own personalized brands on your unique products! The diversity in the final products of this workshop and the fact that other participants may be making different handicrafts, gives you the chance to witness varied crafts being made on the same day & to become somewhat familiar with each. It will no doubt broaden your horizons, introducing you to a wider range of concepts & a whole new unlimited world of unique creations to come! If the timetable doesn’t work for you, message me & we’ll come up with something that does!
