Ghent / Art Centre

019 is an artist-run exhibition, concert and work space occupying a former welding factory in Ghent. The project is initiated and run by Smoke & Dust together with many others. 019 operates as a collective too by the installation of projects in the city of Ghent. Keep an eye on their website for the latest projects!

Brussels / Bar

My favourite bar to have a beer during late evening, the atmosphere is really atypical.

Barcelona / Bar

Eat embutidos while drinking Champagne. It is a fun place, always very crowded!

New York / Restaurant

Tucked away on the second floor, it’s easy to forget you’re in the middle of Manhattan. Order the Ika geso (squid legs) and the nankotsu (chicken cartilage), my personal favorites. You might notice people waiting around a nondescript door inside the restaurant; this is actually the entrance to the speakeasy bar Angel’s Share.

Frankfurt / Art

It's just a must go, if you like art. This place is a bit hidden but easy too find. It's located in the old beautiful Frankfurt square, Römerplatz.

Ljubljana / Art Centre

It stands on the central Republic Square (Trg republike), opposite the Parliament. Culture and art events like artistic performances, dances, book fairs, film festivals etc.. are held here regulary.

Amsterdam / Place

The fence around De Nederlandsche Bank on the Frederiksplein is a true optical experience. While passing the building, a rhythmic, dynamic pattern appears and disappears in the trellis of the fence. The figures on the sides of the rails were designed in 1992 by artist Peter Struycken, a pioneer in the area of environmental art and generating computer-program based image, light and colour compositions.

New York / Park

I often run to this place and I love this perspective on glittering Manhattan and the feeling of coolness in the air from being so close to the water. To sweat and breathe and see this view of New York gives me a sense of being in this great City.

New York / Theatre

The gorgeous set of the blockbuster play Hamilton, at the Richard Rodgers Theater.

Berlin / Place

I never heard about Havel until some friends and me checked out the google earth for a trip at the weekend. We went there in the german winter, oh yes...in the winter. I loved this place because is a small city island with a lake (which was frozen at that time) and with lovely houses and an old mill. I have never been there in the summer but i can imagine how wonderful would be.

Chicago / Architecture

Chicago has great brutalist architecture but this is one I pass by all the time. It has been burned into my mind and I'm pretty sure it can fly.

New York / Bar

Geek out over the massive menu of Belgian beer at Spuyten Duyvil. Relax in the backyard seating and say, "Ooh, I gotta remember this brew," without realizing you probably won't see it again elsewhere. Then cross the street to Fette Sau, a BBQ experience equally well designed because it's owned by the same couple, the Carrolls. Order from their wide selection of meat cuts, served by the pound on butcher paper. The sides shine too, with the best potato salad and best BBQ beans I've ever had.
