Banks keeps her evenings in the Jordaan free of plans that run late, because the message she waits for usually comes from a restaurant table somewhere across the canals. She speaks French and English, and she reads a short text as well as a long one. She leans towards tantra and sensual work, both paced slowly enough that a heavy dinner is no obstacle. She asks one thing of a guest: be in the room, with the lights as you want them, before she reaches the corridor. Tantra with her is booked at ninety minutes or longer, because the quiet opening and the breathing she sets before any touch would use up a good part of a single hour. On a first booking with the house, half of that fee goes ahead by card, Revolut, Wise or crypto, never by PayPal or a bank transfer. The other half is settled once she is inside the room, forty to sixty minutes after the thread confirms.

Banks 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.
