Describe Rotterdam in a sentence!
For me, Rotterdam is the most magical city where all kinds of people and cultures come together.

What is your favourite hotspot?
My favourite hotspot in Rotterdam is "Kop van Zuid". It is located in the south of Rotterdam. Years ago, this was where all the ships entered the port of Rotterdam, now it is the perfect place to enjoy the city's skyline with the Erasmus Bridge.

Erasmus Bridge

Considered an architectural work of art, Rotterdam's imposing bridge that is shaped like a harp soars over the largest harbor in Europe.

What is your favourite place to shop?
When I go shopping, I like to go to Pannekoekstraat and Meent. They have the perfect combination of shops for all kinds of styles.

Favourite place to eat and drink?
When I go for drinks with my friends, I like to go to YOLO, a boutique fusion restaurant-bar. For a nice dinner, my #1 place is Finca, a Spanish restaurant paired with the best cocktails.
