London / Restaurant

A perfect place for any occasion - or no occasion at all - every table feels like the best one.

London / Museum

This beautiful 19thC industrial building is situated in Markfield Park just around the corner from my studio. Once a sewage treatment works serving the whole of Tottenham and now a museum. The fully restored Victorian pump engine is only open to the public on the second Sunday of every month but the outside of the building and surrounding park is a worth a visit regardless.

Melbourne / Shop

Mr Kitly is a shop and gallery specialising in ceramics, books, plants and textiles. Much of the stock is from Japan, and everything makes you want to weep because it's so charming and pretty. The hanging plants are amazingly affordable too.

Providence / Cinema

The Cable Car is a gem. Cozy little theater with couches! Even better, you can have a beer and a turkey sandwich while you are watching the movie!

São Paulo / Restaurant

Vegan sushi and chill vibes

Amsterdam / Transport

    Almost every underground station in Amsterdam has a fascinating story behind it. My favourite one is metro station ‘Weesperplein,’ because it has a hidden station underneath the actual station that was meant for the 'Singellijn.' However, that line was never build and the second station remained useless. Besides that the hidden station was also equipped to serve as a shelter during the cold war. The large doors that were meant to hermetically close the building are still visible at both ends of the platform. Other small details, like the panels in the ceiling than can be used as tables when turned around, are also silent references to the building’s former use.  

Berlin / Museum

This place is like being in the Canary Islands, where my hometown is. The wonderful botanical garden has around 22.000 different plant species. I can find here all the tropical species from the island where i grew up: birds of Paradise, palms or dragon trees.

Manchester / Shop

Form Lifestyle Store is a hidden gem tucked away in Manchester's Northern Quarter. Selling all those nice little things you want in your home. They also have a space upstairs where they host workshops with their makers, and other local creatives.

Manila / Restaurant

Toyo is one of my favorite restaurants in Manila. The shop is in the same compound as my studio, so I always bring my visiting friends here for dinner. The ambience is nice and the food is really really good. It's Filipino food in its essence, but done very differently.

New York / Cinema

I just go there alone. More than the movie I´m watching it´s like a shelter on weekdays afternoon.

Moscow / Area

Strogino is a remote residential neibourhood on the northwest end of Moscow, famous for its greenery, water space and barbecue. My good friends, photographers Anastasia Tsayder and Petr Antonov live here. The picture was taken from their balcony. Their place is known as 'photohostel' as many visiting photographers stay with them when they stop over in Moscow.

Portland / Sanctuary

The National Sanctuary of our Sorrowful Mother is a 62-acre Catholic shrine and botanical garden. The upper level has an amazing space-age meditation chapel providing awesome views of the Columbia River and Mt. St. Helens. It's made of polished granite and glass walls.
