London / Museum

A treasure trove in the The City of London. The Archive of London. Strongrooms hold kilometres of shelving; boxes of matter that has somehow been catalogued and categorised in a traceable manner by the public, for academic, genealogical and other research. This beautiful book is from a box on Epping Forest. On the same visit, I looked through photographs of Blitz singsongs in Bethnal Green Underground station, 1980s anti-Thatcher / pro-GLC gig posters and paper concertina optical models of the Crystal Palace.

Leipzig / Art

Always a good idea to stop by and visit the exhibitions.

Antwerp / Restaurant

Alltime favorite restaurant for long, cozy and special nights. Experimental kitchen/food and the best selection of natural wines!

Montreal / Cafe

Falco is a really nice Japanese coffee shop focusing on siphon coffee. It's located in what use to be an industrial part of the Mile End but is now mostly creative businesses. It's one of my favourites place to work or have meetups since it's huge and pretty close to my studio.

Buenos Aires / Cafe

Cafe Voltaire is a super lovely place! Great for sharing some moments with friends, perfect to relax, or work a bit, is in the neighborhood of Palermo.

Paris / Art

The best illustration gallery and bookstore in Paris

Milan / Cafe

Modern coffee shop, offering artisan coffee and pastries.

Vallby / Natural Area

This huge natural rock formation shaped as swirls is an amazing place to go for swimming or just contemplating.

Taipei / Park

I thought I was in fairyland the first time I came here. I have never been to such a natural place in Taipei. Cows, birds, mountains, a great meadow that you cannot see the end. This is my favorite place in Taipei.

Florence / Museum

La Specola is one of my favourite museums I have ever visited. The museum is a branch of the Natural History Museum of the University of Florence and is one of the oldest science museums in Europe, built in 1775 with the aim of gathering the natural treasures collected by different generations of the Medici family, such as fossils, animals, minerals and exotic plants. You really have to go. The displays are stunning and odd, also the Zoological Collection is full of specimens and old taxidermy pieces. On top of that there is also a quite "scary" collection of about 1,400 pieces of anatomical waxworks (made between the end of the 18th century and the beginning of the 19th century).

London / Shop

I’m not sure what I like best about this deli: the speck which was so good that I ‘accidentally’ ate the whole package of it before I got home, or the fact the staff are always so friendly even when I ask for my order in my terribly rusty Italian.

Milan / Swimming Pool

Inaugurated on May 3, 1934, the Roberto Cozzi indoor swimming pool was the first entirely covered pool in Italy - a masterpiece of the engineer and architect Luigi Lorenzo Secchi (1899-1992). It's possible to book just for the day by the website www.milanosport.it and, for summer days, you can also use the terrace.

Paris / Painter

Born in 1990, Antoine Duruflé grew up in Paris. In his studies, he went through the famous illustration section of Decorative Arts in Strasbourg. Yet his work is closer today to the field of painting. Color is an integral part of his pictorial identity. The attraction for this one, was revealed by its practice of the image printed in screen-printing workshop. She carries it gradually in a surreal nature, which blurs the clear lines of the illustration. The fictional universe that he builds tightly binds him to the realm of music that calls him to create visuals close to a certain fantasy and a utopian world.
