Behind the scenes
Faces and portraits
A chilled bottle of Sanford Orchards Cider whilst watching one of my football teams Chelsea, West Ham, Leyton Orient (3 teams –it’s complicated!)
During the summer, I often jump on the motorbike and go for a ride whenever I find the time – motorbikes are my greatest passion and the best way to disconnect, whether it’s riding, preparing the bikes for the next trackdays or watching races on TV. But I also enjoy jogging and sports in general, playing the drums, cooking and meeting friends after work.
Family & friends above anything
For having a great family and group of close and long-time friends that I can always rely on. And for having been able to travel to so many exciting places already, both privately and during coffee origin trips.

In 2008, just before starting my internship, to find an apartment for those six months.
This special ‘London feeling’ – it never gets boring, there’s always so much going on and so much to do, I love the (food) markets, the music scene, the many less-famous areas I am still exploring, and – of course – the great British pubs.
It’s much busier, bigger and louder, but it’s also more sociable, I like the fact that you always see people meeting in the pub after work before heading home.
German bakeries. And the German autobahn.
Probably 10 years ago, shortly after we both joined IAC. I think at the ‘Caffe Culture’ show in London.
A couple of entertaining pub nights throughout the years and his visit to Hamburg for the traditional “TH-Verein” boat trip (association of companies involved in the coffee trade in Hamburg) a few years ago.
He has probably already done most of the things you should do when visiting Hamburg, but I would always recommend a barbecue and sundowner at the Elbstrand, canoeing on the Alster, and eating ‘Labskaus’.
Much fun and great success!
I love the quayside around Hafencity – on my early visits I always remember the long drawn out completion of the Elbphilharmonie – it looks stunning now and I would love to visit it one day.
The multi cultural society & environment – whether it’s curry on Brick Lane or Bao in China town. There is something for everyone.
On my first day at IAC! Gerrit came to London to help Neil Barwick at a trade show – I remember thinking this was very cool.
Many beers shared, memories short – signs fun was had.
Explore every crevice London has to offer North, South, East, West – you could life here a lifetime and never complete it – it constantly surprises you.
For him to have educated IAC USA firmly in some English ol’cockney rhyming slang.
