02 Who arrives

Karina, and how she works.

Her Ukrainian, her Russian and her English between them mean a room rarely goes quiet for the wrong reason. In most pairs she is the senior half, which means she does the reading — who is tense, who is pretending not to be, when to change what is happening without being asked. Twenty-eight has given her the confidence to say very little and still run an evening. The long formats are her preference, three hours or the overnight, the kind of booking where the first hour is only the beginning.

She works outcall only — your hotel room, your serviced apartment, your own flat. Twenty to thirty minutes across the centre once the booking is settled, at any hour. Schiphol airport hotels are by arrangement.
