London / Bar

A friend took me to this bar on Greek Street, I’m unsure of what it’s called or if it should be there, but it feels pretty authentic and makes you dream of the Soho of the 60s.

Paris / Cafe

Café Breizh will hit the spot if you’re in the mood for a crêpe. Which in my case, is often. They’ve got them in spades, along with savoury galettes and buckets of cider. Mmmm. It was a popular spot so get in there early. The reason it made my favourites was the delicious (organic) fare. But more importantly (for me anyway) the lovely staff who brought my kid an extra plate with a sweet, for her toy ‘Doggle’. So Café Breizh—you’re ace. I would have taken some more useful pictures but I was distracted by the ‘Timbres Papiers Timbres’ tile typography outside.

Paris / Restaurant

French Cuisine near Place de la Victoire in Paris

New York / Shop

Erie Basin is a really wonderful little shop full of old, creepy and beautiful things, such as Victorian mourning jewelry (some with hair in it), Freemason masks from the 1900's, tiny children's rings from the 1700's, and all kinds of other treasures. It is really as much a museum as it is a store, and all of the items have a haunting and unique aura.

Los Angeles / Shop

Nicely curated vintage store for Levi's and interesting pieces.

Hamburg / Shop

This is a pretty nice vinyl record store specialized in finding and trading rare vinyl and special CD Editions. I bought most of my minimal/house records there. But it's also fun browsing through huge collections of old soul/funk/hip hop records.

London / Shop

This is a great, free and lesser known spot in London. A glass lift takes you up the side of st.Paul's cathedral right out onto the roof terrace of this shopping centre. A great view over London.

Dubai / Place

An organized desert safari with desert-duning is the way to go! The tours can be done in the morning, afternoon or over night. They treat you to an arabic buffet, a belly dancer show, camel treks, shisha, duning, and more.

Barcelona / Club

After being in the market I love going to the beach for a swim in winter there is a magnificient hot/outdoors swimingpool next to the beach were you can swim even if it's rainy!!!

Salento / Food Store

Be berated by old women, discuss the translation of 'Take That' and be told the only way to cook vegetables properly.

Norwich / Art

The most chill place to grab a drink with your friends and relax. There are monthly exhibitions in the bar and 'Playroom' with lots of funky stuff to look at everywhere. Certainly a unique place!

London / Library

The V and A houses a public collection of prints and drawings of every kind imagineable from old master drawings to photographs, playing cards, fashion plates and wallpapers. You have to select what you want to see from the collection http://collections.vam.ac.uk/and book in advance. The behind-the-scenes route up to the study room of v and a is a treat alone (pictured)
