[New Type of Event] Picnic Friday Night with an (optional) Tango vibe
With warm & good weather on the horizon again, it's time again to get more picnic-y & outdoors-y 🌄
For this new season, let's revisit the old picnic gathering formula, but add into the night vibe & spicy dance theme (in this case tango, because other dances are oversaturated with events 😊)
The premise:
A picnic gathering starting from 19:00 & ending 23:00 sharp
Since it's evening vibes, BYO food/drinks/games still applies but think time appropriate (don't go big on alcohol though!)
Dancing aspect, music starts 20:00 & ends 23:00 sharp!
Exact location in Griftpark:
To be concluded, but assume close to where the meetup event location currently is set at
Additional notes for the tango aspect:
* you're very much welcome to join in & dance, even with no experience. I can show you a thing or two so you can get a taste & give it a go 😊 Depending on how many, either via a quick group tryout or I help you out individually
* The tango aspect of the event is through the Utrecht Tango Cafe Milonga community (also organized by Constantinos)
More info --> https://www.utrechtcafemilonga.com
If you have any further questions, feel free to message the host
Depending on the time & weather, and whether people are up for it, follow-up drinks can always follow later that day.
To those interested, I hope to see you there! 😄
Utrecht Pre King's Day Weekend Cocktail & Mocktail Crawl
Welcome to the first Cocktail & Mocktail Crawl: Pre King's Day Weekend Edition! **🍊🍹**
After a successful first Cafe Crawl and with a second one just around the corner, it's time to introduce something new. This is the Cocktail & Mocktail Crawl.
We're kicking off the King's Day weekend the right way, with good drinks, great company, and a little orange. Wear or bring something orange to get into the King's Day spirit!
We meet at the Neude and from there we visit two great bars with a delicious cocktail & mocktail menu. At both stops you'll be put in small groups of 4 to 6 people, so there's nice space to connect and have good conversations.
⚠️ Not sure if you can make it? Please free up your spot for someone else.

Girls Night Out: Laugh, Connect & Recharge @The 5th
**This might be the girls night you didn’t know you needed.**
Many women are living in constant “on” mode- always busy, always giving.
And somewhere along the way, we forget how good it feels to simply *be together*.
This is your invitation to a real **girls night out**.
Every 3 weeks we come together to relax, laugh, connect and support each other — without pressure, without fixing, without performance.
**When women gather in a safe and supportive space, something powerful happens.** We uplift each other through shared laughter, honest conversations, and non-judgement presence. Being around other women who get it can make everything feel a little lighter and brighter.
It helps us feel less alone, more supported, emotionally stronger - sometimes simply by being in the same room together.
Sometimes we talk. Sometimes we listen, Sometimes we laugh - and even sing - until our bellies hurt.
You’re free to share what’s on your mind, or simply enjoy the energy of being around other women who get it.
There’s no agenda. No judgement.
Just genuine connection, joy, and friendships that feel *easy and real.*
And often, there’s that quiet thought:
*“oh wow, I didn’t know I needed this.”*
All I ask is that you come exactly as you are — tired, joyful, quiet, loud, curious, or unsure. Everything is welcome.
We meet every 3 weeks - The upcoming months it will only be in Utrecht. later on we will switch between Utrecht, Amsterdam and Leiden - because connection grows when we keep showing up for each other — not perfectly, just honestly.
✨ Come as you are.
✨ Leave feeling lighter, more connected, and a little more yourself.

Marbling Workshop — Utrecht
## **🌊 Marbling Workshop — Utrecht \(\[Booking via link\]\(se book via the link: https://artools\.nl/product/marbling\-workshop/\)\)**
## **Colour, water, and chance.**
## In this 2h hands-on marbling workshop, pigments float on water and are transferred onto paper — creating patterns that can’t be fully controlled or repeated.
It’s a slow, tactile and slightly hypnotic process, where “happy accidents” are part of the experience.
**What to expect:**
– work directly with colour on water
– explore movement and flow
– create multiple one-of-a-kind prints – guided but open-ended session
You don’t aim for one perfect piece — you create many, each shaped by timing and chance.

De Troost Tafel - 26 april
Wil jij met mij op een culinaire reis door rouw?
Ik nodig je van harte uit voor de Troost Tafel – Lunch Editie.
Een intieme middag waar we samen aan tafel gaan om de smaken van rouw te verkennen.
Wat is pittig in jouw rouw? Welke herinnering smaakt nog steeds zoet?
In een klein gezelschap van maximaal 8 mensen nodig ik je uit om mee te gaan op mijn culinaire reis door rouw – een reis die ik ooit begon na het verlies van mijn moeder.
Eerder organiseerde ik diners, maar deze keer kies ik bewust voor een lunch. Waarom? Omdat ik weet dat het soms spannend kan zijn om over rouw te praten. Met deze kortere, laagdrempelige editie wil ik juist ruimte creëren voor wie dat spannend vindt, maar toch nieuwsgierig is naar verbinding, troost en smaak.
🕰 Indeling van de middag
12.30 – 13.00 Inloop & ontvangst
13.00 – 13.15 Welkom & introductie
13.15 – 15.00 Aan tafel – 3-gangen lunch
15.00 – 15.15 Afronding
15.15 – 15.30 Tijd om rustig naar huis te gaan.
🌿 Wat is de Troost Tafel?
De Troost Tafel is een plek waar verliezen, herinneringen en smaken samenkomen.
Een culinaire reis door rouw – waarin we onderzoeken hoe emoties en herinneringen zich kunnen vertalen naar smaken. Wat is licht in jouw rouw? Wat voelt zwaar? Wat smaakt bitter of juist zoet?
🌟 Voor wie is de Troost Tafel?
Voor iedereen die verlies heeft ervaren – groot of klein. Of je nu net een dierbare bent verloren, of al jaren een gemis met je meedraagt: alle vormen van verlies mogen er zijn. Bij de Troost Tafel leggen we de rouw op tafel, in plaats van hem eronder te schuiven.
🍽 Wat kun je verwachten?
Een driegangenlunch, met ruimte voor stilte, gesprek en verbinding.
Je zit aan tafel met een kleine groep mensen, ieder met hun eigen verhaal.
Bij elke gang staan we stil bij een ander aspect van rouw en smaak – zodat we samen verdieping kunnen vinden in wat ons raakt en verbindt.
💛 Waarom ik de Troost Tafel organiseer?
In het laatste jaar van mijn koksopleiding verloor ik mijn moeder aan longkanker. Het was mijn eerste diepe ervaring met rouw, en het bracht me op een intense spirituele reis. In die zoektocht vond ik uiteindelijk rust en acceptatie. Helaas verloor ik recent ook mijn stiefmoeder. Na een zeer kort ziekbed werd ik opnieuw geconfronteerd met het verlies.
De Troost Tafel is ontstaan uit mijn verlangen om anderen ook een plek te bieden – een veilige, warme tafel waar verlies ruimte mag krijgen, en waar troost mag ontstaan.
Schuif je aan? Als je vragen hebt mag je me ook altijd een bericht sturen.
