Tokyo / Airport

For myself, Narita airport is an important place. Traveling is a source for my creativity and it expands my possibility internationally. For me, it is a place to open a new door and take me up a new challenge.

Hong Kong / Restaurant

Casual neighbourhood dining meets high end cooking paired with curated wine offering. Expect fusion dishes like a reimagined laksa with a side of perfect glass of natural wine delivered in quite informal and personal manner. A very cool and satisfying dinner indeed.

Milan / Restaurant

Classic Milanese restaurant for a special occasion. Definitely try the risotto!

Beijing / Restaurant

Established by Melbourne-born restaurateur, Michelle Garnaut, Capital M is one of my favourites, especially for afternoon tea. During pollution-free springs (when we have them) and summer (when the heat is not too suffocating), the view of Qianmen from the terrace is breathtaking, whilst cooler months see the use of the indoor fireplaces, which create a cosy, intimate environment. They also hold some great events here and the decor is trippy.

Burlington / Cafe

Famous for their flatbread fridays, August First is a friendly restaurant/bakery serving fresh bread and new dishes everyday.

New York / Bridge

I made my decision to move to New York when biking over the pink bridge one afternoon in early fall 2010. I feel like it’s the perfect bridge – with it’s view over Manhattan its great for walks, either visitors coming for the first time, old friends and first dates. I also love exercising running over it – and as a bonus looking at all the graffiti and writings and people passing by.

New York / Shop

Eye-Candy per excellence!

Amsterdam / Shop

A tiny record shop that has all the character you'd want. They also sell produce out front which gives it even more character.

Milan / Architecture

Vintage lovers! The Planetarium of Milan, Civico Planetario "Ulrico Hoepli", is a building located at the entrance of Giardini di Porta Venezia. It's a beautiful structure designed by Piero Portaluppi and commissioned by the Italian-Swiss publisher Ulrico Hoepli. Also the interior design is beautiful, there you can find a planetarium which projects and represents the image of the stars and their movements in the sky. The Planetarium also has a library which is a section of the Museum of Natural History, near by. They also organize educational activity concerning astronomy as talks, events and even concerts.

Baltimore / Music Venue

Floristree is located on the top floor of the H&H warehouse building. The space has hosted acts ranging from legendary German experimental music duo Cluster to the late Baltimore Club DJ K-Swift.

Cambridge / Art

An idyllic little gallery & permanent collection in the former home of Jim & Helen Ede. If you're ever in Cambridge for more than a few hours, it's very much worth the visit.

Ahangama / Hotel

I stayed here in March 2019 and it was one of the best experiences of my life. The food at atmosphere here is amazing as is the decor and the fact it's right on the beach. If you like to surf - it's a great place to stay to do that - I went surfing every morning and sunset - just hired an inexpensive board and got on those waves - I'm a beginner and it had the perfect waves for my skills or lack thereof. The staff were so friendly and helpful - Literally can not wait to go back!!

Rome / Graphic Designer

My name is Brando Corradini, I am 29 years old and I am a graphic designer. Since my childhood my world was drawing and coloring and this passion of mine led me to undertake higher studies in the artistic field which was followed by a three-year degree in Graphic Design and Visual Communication, achieved in 2013 at the Academy of Fine Arts “RUFA " From Rome. I consider myself completely creative but above all I am an artist. In what I do and in what I am I always want to be free, far from any rule. I don't like certain stakes, even when I worked for companies or other companies, I felt imprisoned within certain rules. I have traveled a lot and this has given me the opportunity to have new experiences. For my works I draw inspiration from everything that surrounds me, from what I live, from what every day passes before my eyes, making life a wonderful muse. Currently I have opened a streetwear clothing line "NOMADE CLOTHING" with Studio Mylab3d, by Damiano Primiceri, a dear friend of mine since the days of art school who is interested in 3D design and modeling. Today I am what I am because, over time, I realized that I didn't want to be just a graphic designer but rather a "graphic artist". I would like to become a person known worldwide: my dream is to have a page on Wikipedia!
