Copenhagen / Place

Copenhagen Meetpacking district is a good place to go out for a beer. Duing the summer the hole place is packed with young people. There is several bars, galleries and restaurants in the area.

Taipei / Cafe

A nice community located in Songshan Dist with a lot of great cafes/restaurants. This place always surprise me when finding a good food or lovely shops. I visit here often cause my boyfriend lives here.

Valencia / Club

Picadilly is the right club if you want to have fun without any hint of pretension. It’s the funniest club in Valencia without a doubt. It has a gay-friendly ambient and an interior design that reminds of the 80’s discos. It has 3 rooms and you can listen to a big repertoire of hits from any decade. It goes from Abba, Eurythmics, Madonna and Donna Summer to nowadays hits from the underground and mainstream music. One of the rooms is a “silent disco” with a very curious approach. You get a pair of inalambric headphones as you enter the room, and you can choose up to three different sessions to listen to. It's a very comic situation because if you take the headphones off you can see the rest of the people dancing and singing the session they have chosen, being in a room without music.

Belgrade / Cafe

It's a coffee shop where I usually spend my mornings, before I get my hands on work. A friendly place where you can always meet nice local folks, get the best coffee in Belgrade or simply catch some sun outside of it. They even throw the daytime parties each Sunday it's easy to spend a few hours around without noticing. You can hang around with friends outside on the crowded sidewalk, listen to the beat and catch up the vibe of the former industrial area in Lower Dorcol, only few minutes away from the city center.

New York / Bar

The Office NYC showcases a deep spirits collection; pre-Prohibition style cocktails; signature offerings and “Dealer’s Choice,” where bartenders create a tailored drink based on patron’s preferences, ranging from citrus or herbal tones and favorite seasons to their favorite movie characters, destinations and more. (It also has an awesome icecream sundae)

Berlin / Bookstore

It is an English language bookstore centering on non-western, diasporic, and queer perspectives. Many many many rare and special books carefully selected by Siddhartha Lokanandi that is the soul of this place! Check it, it is unforgettable :)

London / Restaurant

Cosy little restaurant with a giant kitchen island unit in the centre which doubles as a display and seating area. Open for breakfast, lunch and dinner with a focus on fermenting.

Paris / Place

A grubby, ugly and grey crossroads, yet strangely beautiful by the evening sun. It always makes me happy when I pass through because ten minutes walk in any direction leads to some of my favourite places: the best fromager, thrift stores, the best boulangerie for tartes, the canal, bars, my apartment, B.D. (comix) shops, the best butcher, the huge deco Rex cinema, the best veg markets, my band's underground rehearsal room, my part time job, art galleries, etc etc!

London / Shop

Fantastic selection of magazines !

Stockholm / Bookstore

An amazing bookstore with a rare selection of books, international newspapers, magazines and films in the fields of art and design.

London / Museum

I walk a lot; the best way to experience a city. So it's sometimes to do with the way places join up. This cast concrete letterform is a part of the Lycée's gateway. Each of the form's facets arrives at a different character, so six possible letters come from each cast object. I've never been inside the Lycée but always walked through this way up to the V&A, in order to examine again and again how each form works. The surfaces set the tone for the V&A and its incredible Ceramics floor, a perennial inspiration.
