Hi! Mijn naam is Marc en ik woon al meer dan de helft van mijn leven in Rotterdam. Ik wil je graag meenemen op een onvergetelijke wandeling door de stad, waarbij we niet alleen de bekende bezienswaardigheden bezoeken, maar ook de verborgen pareltjes ontdekken die deze stad zo bijzonder maken. Tijdens de tour zal ik je mijn persoonlijke favorieten laten zien en je voorzien van insider-tips over de beste (nog onontdekte) plekken, gezellige restaurants en leuke activiteiten. Bovendien zal ik je alles vertellen over de rijke geschiedenis van Rotterdam en leuke weetjes delen die je nergens anders hoort. De tour is ongeveer 5 kilometer lang en we zullen regelmatig stoppen om te genieten van de sfeer, meer informatie over de geschiedenis en leuke tips over de omgeving. Aan het einde van de tour heb je niet alleen een compleet nieuwe kijk op Rotterdam, maar ook een lijst met unieke plekken en activiteiten die je verder kunt ontdekken.

It’s ok if you can’t play an instrument. What you bring along: Ideas for what you like to write about. It's OK to bring your own instrument. Bring something like pen and paper, laptop, iPad or phone to write down, and maybe 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 3,5 hours. - Studio experience, by recording your vocal, or instrument. - We record the basic song idea, so mainly 2 tracks, the chords and the melody. - Author rights in co-writing sessions are always equally shared no matter how big or small each contribution.
