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).

Berlin / Bar

A very close friend of mine owns this bar. It looks tiny from the outside, but it has two rooms you have to pass until you get to last one which is a discofloor. I play music there from time to time and I am always surrounded by nice people und friends.

Tel Aviv-Yafo / Cafe

An eclectic café located in the heart of Tel Aviv, Sheleg is the perfect place to brunch. While it may be hard to choose a place amongst the many wonderful cafés in Tel Aviv, Sheleg offers a classic and simply delicious Mediterranean menu. Filled with antique souvenirs, you feel like you are stepping back in time. Recommendations: black coffee, fresh squeezed orange juice, "bread break", and toast with raw tehina + date honey.

Montreal / Restaurant

Classic Bagels from Montreal

New York / Shop

The operators of the Peter Pan bakery make the best donuts I've ever tasted. This place is charming to its core. Decor and presentation: circa 1971 & virtually unchanged since.

Leeds / Shop

Village is an independent book store and publishing house in the centre of Leeds. The store specialises in self published zines from local to international artists. The store also sells selected art, design and photography books from well established independent publishers. If your ever in the corn exchange make sure you check it out.

Oslo / Restaurant

The Ekeberg restaurant is located on the Ekeberg hill and offers a great view of the Oslofjord and great food. Not the cheapest place in Oslo, but the view and the delicious food are worth the price!

New York / Bar

Amazingly warm balearic vibes on the main floor with a classic, dark and minimal NYC club in the basement, Balearica is run by a team of music obsessed Irish friends who bring nothing but love to North Williamsburg. The music is always on point and the energy is inclusive and uplifting.

New York / Park

where I walk with my dog near my apartment, is also the remains of what was Fort Putnam in the late 1700’s and later Fort Washington near the Navy Yard. Not the largest park but a regular part of my routine and big enough to feel like you’re still out of the city when you’re in the middle of it.

Paris / Museum

One of the most interesting, vibrant, alive, modern and questioning museum in Paris.

Paris / Shop

Can't miss

San Francisco / Restaurant

In the Mission, now as terminally hip as it was formally poor, the St Francis is a greasy good time since 1918. Stuck beautifully in the 50's both aesthetically and menu wise it's Americana in a bun. Dig in.

Ahoy. Most of my time I spend with Work&Travel. Exploring, relaxing and getting inspired while trailing is the best way to have a break after a long project. Also meeting people, write and experience new stories of life is what makes not only a trip but also the creative work lasting longer.

Madrid / Film Director

I am a filmmaker living in Madrid. I am part of DVEIN, a two-headed director: the other one is called Teo. We do commercials, music videos and film, and we love to experiment. That is why our work is characterized by the hybridization of ideas and techniques with which we merge real and digital in mix-media approached projects. We attempt to explore the limits of live action, animation or CGI on them, and to create our own visual and aesthetic language.
