Flowers lovers! Orto Botanico di Brera is an hidden treasure right in the center of Brera and near by Pinacoteca. The garden is a university and museum, there they organize events and activities for the public and schools. It has an amazing collection of flowers and medicinal plants, plus little corners where you can stop by and enjoy the silence for a bit.

Amsterdam / Bookstore

My favourite and neighbourhood bookstore. With a good selection of books and a balanced selection of magazines. If possible I buy my books here. I want to support small business.

New York / Theatre

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

London / River

It paces a Londoner's life. When the tide is low I like wandering on the "beach" and discovering tunnels that take me to the centre of the Earth.

San Francisco / Gallery

Many galleries and events and a restaurant

Paris / Shop

Soft bed linen, beautiful cutlery, nice couchs, affordable kitchen products…

New York / Art

The Frank Stella's are the best. They are all over the city and they always look amazing. Two of my favorites are the Saatchi and Saatchi lobby (pictured) and the Citi Corp building in Midtown.

Vilnius / Bar

The conceptual beer bar representing 60 beer styles with 15 beer taps and almost 300 bottled beers from all-over the world.

Vancouver / Shop

A gem of an antique store. Beautifully selected findings from around the world, and displayed so lovingly, that it makes you want to re-decorate your entire house with its treasures.

Porto / Cafe

I spent a lot of time at combi coffee while living in Porto. The owners are amazing, the cappuccino with oat milk is to die for and the atmosphere is the best.

London / Cafe

Sans Pere is my new favourite place to have breakfast, café or lunch. In the heart of Shoreditch it really feels like a modern home. Their quiches are delicious and they have an in-house patisserie kitchen and let me tell you their cute bite-size choux and bronuts (brioche-donuts) are worth the detour.

New York / Library

Somewhat off the beaten Williamsburg-track, Brooklyn Art Library is nestled on a mostly residential street. It’s home to tens of thousands of artist sketchbooks known as “The Sketchbook Project”. Over 100 countries are represented and their “collection houses books from small communities in Mongolia next to professional illustrators from New York.” You can donate one of your very own! All the sketchbooks have been cataloged for easy searching of their vast shelves, by artist and subject, and visitors are invited to browse what feels much like a hands-on museum. The Art Library also remains one of the few places to find art supplies (while limited) in the neighborhood, and if you’re in the market for a special gift (including books, totes and the cutest retro pennants) for your favorite art-lovin’ bibliophile, you might just get lucky here.
