New York / Market

The Chelsea Market is filled with great restaurants and speciality food stores and pop up shops. I love stopping in and getting a gourmet grilled cheese from Lucy's Whey or a healthy juice from raw food restaurant One Lucky Duck, while shopping for dinner ingredients at the Italian market Buon Italia. For a great sit down restaurant, I love The Green Table, which serves great farm to table food.

Düsseldorf / Art

The Polish Institute Düsseldorf is one of many Polish Institutes worldwide which were established by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Poland. It aims to promote the cultural relationships between Poland and Germany using the presentation of Polish art, cinema, theatre, music, and literature and to intensify the mutual exchange of history, politics, education and society. The Polish Institute Düsseldorf was founded in 1993. It is active not only in North-Rhine Westphalia but also in Rhineland-Palatinate, Hessen and Saarland. Apart from its exhibitions, seminars, workshops, lectures and discussions in its impressive location at Düsseldorf’s Altstadt (Old Town), the Polish Institute takes part in numerous projects of German museums, galleries and universities. It frames programs of theatres, cultural festivals, cinemas and concert halls and organizes study tours and educational and youth projects.

London / Cinema

This independent cinema near Angel in North London is over 100 years old and has had several lives including hosting early Sex Pistol gigs. It now serves as my favourite place to watch films (along with the Rio in Dalson).

Amsterdam / Food Store

Jam made from fruit grown almost in my backyard. The neighbouring complex turned the internal community green space into a community garden. Now I buy their jam at the local gardening and food store.

Cape Town / Restaurant

Loading Bay is the perfect spot for brunch - the best mushroom rigout - an amazing coffee and Cinnabon, for a Aesop fix or some of the best male fashion.

Barcelona / Restaurant

Catalan food

New York / Club

In a landscape of clubs that all play virtually the same EDM or hip hop music, The Pyramid Club is unique in its choice of soundtrack. Every Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, The Pyramid is open from 8pm-4am for an 80s Dance Party on their main floor that is totally punk rock. Downstairs on the lower level, they switch it up with themes ranging from “Back to the 90s” to “Let’s Dance David Bowie.” It’s also way kinder to your budget than most clubs—the drink specials are pretty much the best you can do in New York.

Vancouver / Shop

A little sanctuary for me. I come in here once a week and look around and touch the records and ponder and rarely (sorry to say this) buy anything! I bet they have a nickname for me….

Lisbon / Bar

Unique interiors. You can enjoy the bar, the food and other events.

Oslo / Shop

Very nice record shop, with a good selection of records, and some books and merch. Very friendly staff who likes helping visitors find music they might like.

Paris / Art

The best illustration gallery and bookstore in Paris

London / Architecture

Where 1984 of George Orwell got its inspiration from, the craziness of a real ministry of propaganda.
