Colleen

Easy company before an hour and very quiet inside it: a harder combination than it sounds. Generous with the talk right up to the moment the room settles.

Colleen treats the Jordaan as a village she happens to work from, and most of her evenings begin late in it. At twenty-five she has already stopped adjusting her pace for anybody, and clients who book her twice tend to book longer the second time. The overnight is asked of her more often than of most, which suits somebody who dislikes the feeling of an evening cut off at the end. Her attention does not wander and does not have to be called back, which is the part of tantra nobody can fake.

Colleen 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.
