Who are we?
Walking & Talking was founded in Rotterdam in 2019 by Masha Neeteson-Nikolaeva and Annelies Maris. The idea came to Masha. She learned Dutch herself and wanted to learn to speak the language quickly and well. She took the first steps in this together with Annelies. This is how Walking & Talking was born.
