Portland / Bar

I love stopping by the Skyline after a hike through Forest Park. They have an amazing view, a brick BBQ pit, horse shoes, ping pong, and a REAL jukebox.

Rio de Janeiro / Art

Parque Lage is a mansion from the 19th century, located in the middle of a luxuriant and refreshing park. It has become today a school of art, where exhibitions are often held, and also hosts a cafe and restaurant.

Barcelona / Cafe

All Espai Joliu-lovers rejoice! Very recently a second location called Orval has opened, and it’s only 10 minutes away from its big sister. Just above Ciutadella park, just like its predecessor does. It has plenty of natural light that comes in through the large windows. Another added benefit with the new location is that it consists of two floors instead of just one as in Espai Joliu. Both cafes have their unique charm: Espai Joliu has that rugged, Berlin-inspired atmosphere, and Orval an added modern touch. The concept of plants and coffee remains consistent here, with a similar drink menu (with many options, and great specialty coffee) and beautiful plants for sale. You will also find an array of magazines and guidebooks. The staff deserves an added mention, such a friendly bunch!

Warner Robins / Gallery

This is probably my favorite venue in the middle Georgia area. I have seen a ton of great bands play here, plus my band has played here a few times. Bonus points for having a small gallery upstairs.

Antwerp / Shop

A lovely collection of furniture, objects, pottery, cutlery, cosmetics, plants, fashion, accessories and art. The ideal place to find some gifts.

Lisbon / Restaurant

Fish, fish, fish. The crab is amazing. You get a hammer and hammer your way through delicious fish meat. The famous fish restaurant 'Ramiro' is a couple hundred meters down the street. It has lines for hours, not worth it! Walk up to this one with no line, half of the price and frankly better food as they don't need to rush.

London / Architecture

Favourite walk at night, especially in the summer. Quite dramatic, very romantic.

Barcelona / Bar

This nearly 200-year-old bar— reputedly the oldest in Barcelona, is an absynthe bar. Was one of the locations from Vicky Christina Barcelona's film. The Marsella is one of those places that Hemingway supposedly loved to frequent (Hemingway being to bars in Spain what George Washington is to inns in New England).
