WHAT IS MARIA & PEPE?

Maria & Pepe is a thought, an idea, a wish. Sometimes, a real place with good food on the table. Other times, a conversation in wind, a crossing of paths, or an exchange of stories. Laugther, a shared dance, or a wink. A buenos días, or buenas noches. As you can see, it ‘s hard to describe. We pop-up somewhere, and fade into an echo. What’s left is a warm feeling, new friends, and good memories, and a bit more hope for yourself and the world.

We aim to bring people together from all walks of life. We believe that peace starts when we open up to each other; especially in the little moments among the midst of the mundane and chaotic. With simplicity and lightness on either side, we pop-up with storytelling events, evenings of dance and music, workshops, and a summer pop-up restaurant serving vegan Mexican food in Rotterdam.

It’s very simple. Nothing fancy or scientific. Sometimes bombastic and discombobulated. But very gezellig. Muy divertido.

Con amor,
Maria & Pepe
