Karina

02 Who arrives

Karina, and how she works.

Her Latvian, 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-five 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.

Karina decides which bookings she takes and may decline any of them; she sets the limits for what a session includes, says what they are, and may end a visit at any point, as the terms set out.

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