"I honestly don't notice our age difference at all. Elles is always up for trying new things." — Finn.
Elles had already visited the Concertgebouw as a child; for Finn, it was his first time. "It was special to experience this with Elles. We can cross this one off our bucket list."
The two both live in Amsterdam, talk weekly and see each other regularly. "We love going to HEMA, doing a bit of shopping and grabbing something nice to eat and drink," says Finn.
Elles teaches Finn about the history of Amsterdam. Finn is a huge fan of FEBO — a phenomenon Elles hadn't come across before. "We laughed so much about that."
Artis Zoo is on the bucket list. But even at home there's always something to chat about, especially food — they both love cooking.
