London / Bar

Signature cocktails like "concrete", with actual chalk on it, food is good and the places has a small backyard garden. Recommend to try the food, as they are small tasty plates.

Barcelona / Bar

Impervious to the slightest tourism, El Loquillo is perhaps the last bar where fishermen gather to 'split' the profits

Toronto / River

Perfect relaxing place at the west end of the city. Getting of Old Mills Subway Station, you can discover a perfect spot to escape from the city and have a picnic or bike along the river north or south up to Ontario Lake, nice panoramic to the river marshes and the ruins of an old mill.

Szentendre / Gallery

This sawmill building from the 19th century has transformed to an exhibition centre that gives space for the town's remarkable fine art collection. During summer evening the garden is filled with people laying in the grass enjoying the music of this mediterranean old town.

Valencia / Botanical Garden

A welcome retreat from the bustle of the city. I really enjoyed spending the afternoon walking around the botanical gardens, taking pictures. It's home to thousands of species of plants and nearly as many cats.

Rochester / Museum

Both the actual former house of George Eastman with lovely gardens and an impressive interior, as well as a museum. In addition to their exhibitions & screenings, the museum has an impressive archive, (catalog online), and with a few weeks planning, the archivist will pull specific prints for you to stop in and see!

Salamanca / Place

This medieval vault (attributed to Fernando Gallego) is one of my favorite places in the city to think. Set in a dark chamber, with only this piece on display and soft classical music playing on the background, colors seems to start changing every minute you spend there. By the time you leave the room, you will feel like you just returned from a different era.

Cucunubá / Museum

In the mountains of Cucunubá, Colombia. There, every family carries generations of textile knowledge with them. This museum is a beautiful experience with the textile tradition of the region, where you can see the hole process of textile making. If you find the museum closed, you can always ask people from the town for William Contreras.

Springfield / Bar

My favorite bar! Loud Rock N' Roll all week, cheap covers, delicious beers in bottles and on tap. The Outland is usually packed on Fridays and Saturdays, but during the week it is pretty relaxed. Its a great dive bar with a beautiful history, and great decor.

London / Cafe

A taste of Portuguese cafe culture on Golborne Road.

Prague / Art

Amazing spot, gallery in the huge yard you can get a draught beer plus portion of inspiration or just chill.

Paris / Architecture

Jardin du Palis-Royal - 1780 Secret place. Between the Louvre and the Place de la Concorde, a wonderful french-style garden. In the 1780’s, Philippe IV of Orleans (later named “Philippe Egalité” ) acquired the whole place. Extravagant and overly indebted, he decided to build shops around his gardens and rent them out. Convinced by the idea of having a theatre, the Duke thus decided to build the “Comédie française”.

Oslo / Designer

I’m a British citizen currently studying product design at the Akershus Oslo University College. At the age of 4 my parents took me to Lanzarote, which was a pretty funky place to grow up! I moved to Oslo 11 years ago, where I worked as Harbourmaster at the Royal Norwegian Yachtclub until starting studying. I haven’t really found any nieche yet, but I enjoy trying to incorporate feelings into my work and trying to design an experience instead of just a product. I’m very inspired by my surroundings. I suppose I’m on some kind of creative journey at the moment, but I don’t really have a clue what I’m doing or where I’m going to end up. I use humour as a defense mechanism, worry too much and cry when I watch soppy movies.
