Amsterdam / Cafe

Banging my head against the ceiling on the first floor doesn’t stop me from drinking a coffee in café Latei at Nieuwmarkt. I love it here, especially on rainy days, which is most days in the Netherlands. This small cosy café filled with a thousand colours warms me up.

London / Cemetery

My No.1 favourite graveyard in London. Calming, overgrown and a little bit spooky :)

Boutique that is dangerously good and full of gems.

Good Italian food. Only open until 7 pm, so diner only for take away.
