Stephanie's day Vier in Amsterdam!

Today we met Andrea Wagner, after enjoying a strange but fantastic mix of chips with (cold, blagh!) curry sauce and fresh, hot stroopwafel - not the best mid-chew mix, but delicious on their own. Now, filled with food and warm, we found ourselves in the elegant apartment and studio-space of the lovely Andrea. It got me a-thinking about the difference between the separate studio vs. the studio at home, Andrea  currently belonging to the second side. As Andrea aptly pointed out, a myriad of excuses present themselves when wanting to leave home, no reception, clothes to wash etc. On the contrary, the studio at home can remove the 'work environment' feeling, and make for a rather unproductive routine. Then again, each to their own, I prefer a studio at home. It makes for easy access to material when inspiration strikes. Then Karin took us to a surprise beer tour at Brouwerij't IJ next to a windmill.

Yum? 
If beer way my thing, yes.

Fun?
 Yes, when watching Karin use her teacher-magic to guilt-trip the fellow into following through with our tour, and again for free samples. Yay for Karin!
