“One early morning, I found the city cloaked in a thick mist. There was a tranquillity, an intimacy almost, that one hardly comes across in a busy city like Amsterdam.”
“Storytelling is touching upon a certain vulnerability, and finding ways to showcase it. I cannot traverse a street and not wonder what stories are carried by the people who pass by.”
