New York / Place

From Wally's cafe to Wall.E to a green wall. When you arrive in NYC you immediately mention a difference in concentration when it comes to conversations. Iphone's go always before listening to people. There is nothing to do anything about this anymore but it is a little fact. I Like to cycle and walk around in the neighborhood and mention this beautiful wall with the 2 oval light spots arisen on it. This magical light spots are constantly popp'n up on all different walls in NYC. Open your eyes: Let's stare at the wall. Just as long as something starts happening.

San Francisco / Shop

#1 in the city for old book smell and creaky wooden floors. Too small to find anything specific you’re looking for, good enough that you’ll find something else instead.

Amsterdam / Bar

Probably the cosiest place in town! Warm 'Berlin style' wallpapered living room build around a half circle bar. They host poetry, bingo & acoustic evenings in the front room, and great film, concerts and dress up parties in the hidden mezzanine back room.

Tokyo / Place

This mountain is known as one of the top one hundred famous mountains in Japan. And is one of the highest mountains in the Tokyo area. I went mountaineering at the end of last autumn, and felt cold at the summit. The views changed as winds pushed away thick clouds, and I felt that winter was just around the corner. Scenery is breathtaking. It is recommended as a mountain comparatively easy to climb.

New York / Attraction

You can't say you've seen NYC until you've seen it from a boat. Hop on the ferry from anywhere to anywhere and you'll see what I mean. Not only will you see excellent old buildings and factories--the inner workings of the old industrial city--but you'll head out under working bridges and see the skyscrapers in all their towering glory. And once you've done it, do it again, at night.

Leipzig / Cafe

Beautiful cafe with a really nice interior

New York / Restaurant

When I have a bit of money I like to go there with friends to celebrate our happiness and miseries.

Szentendre / Place

This square can be found north from the town centre, hidden from the main tourist routes. The trait of the surrounding houses and streets still represents the influence of the Serb, Greek, and Dalmatian inhabitant from the middle ages. On the top of the hill stands the Currier's Cross with beautiful view to the Danube. Cosmos, the fox terrier also a well known soul of Szentendre.

Barcelona / Cafe

It’s a plant concept store that’s also a cafeteria, art gallery, and venue for all types of events, photo shoots, publicity sessions, or workshops.

Amsterdam / Bar

Located under Q-Park, Waterkant is ideal for sunny days since you can get direct sunlight until late evening. Grab a beer and a table on the terrace and enjoy sunny Amsterdam while it lasts. Note: if you get a bit tipsy you think you see a double Guggenheim

Liverpool / Restaurant

Indian street food, always busy so book ahead.

Paris / Restaurant

A cute little restaurant with good sandwiches with a wink on the south east of France. And nice cookies ! Yummy

Porto / Designer

Fashion designer, art director and undergraduate architecture student. Owner of a watchful and curious look, I have interest in experimentation of diverse techniques and combination of unusual materials. Crafts are one of my passions and I find numerous possibilities of transforming discarded objects in a fasionable and sustainable way. My interests go from fine arts to architecture and cinema. In my free time I enjoy cycling observing the city, and cooking - as I nurture a passion for pasta and meetings around the kitchen table.
