Athens / Museum

The National Archaeological Museum of Athens is the largest archaeological museum in Greece and one of the most important museums in the world. It was founded in 1829 and has been housed in its current neoclassical building since 1889. The museum houses a vast collection of ancient Greek art and artifacts that span over 5,000 years of Greek history, from the prehistoric period to the Roman era. The collection includes sculptures, pottery, jewelry, metalwork, and other objects that provide insight into the daily life, religious practices, and artistic achievements of ancient Greece. One of the most impressive exhibits in the museum is the Mycenaean collection, which includes artifacts from the ancient city of Mycenae, including the famous golden mask of Agamemnon. The museum also has a large collection of sculptures from the classical period, including the bronze statue of Zeus or Poseidon, and the Artemision Bronze. The National Archaeological Museum of Athens has undergone several renovations and expansions over the years to accommodate its growing collection and improve the visitor experience. Today, the museum attracts thousands of visitors each year who come to marvel at the ancient treasures that are on display and learn about the rich cultural heritage of Greece.

Bowling alleys, karaoke rooms, pool tables, arcade machines, this is basically Feltham Bowl for adults. Part of the holy trinity along with Max's Sandwich Shop and The Faltering Fullback

New York / Cafe

Really great coffee and bread.

Amsterdam / Cinema

Cinecenter is special to me because I used to work here. It is a great place to see all of your favourite movies.

Zürich / Cafe

Zürich seemed to have exceptional pancakes. Yum. One place we sampled more of these fluffy goodies was in Café Lang – a beautiful haven of dark wood and tiles. It was also one of the places open on a Sunday morning which was extremely helpful. For this reason (plus the fact that its lovely) meant that it was pretty busy on a Sunday morning. We waited at the coffee bar with more espressos while we waited for a table. It might be an idea to book if you decide to go. I loved it here. The staff were really friendly, the food was delicious and they had super-swank toilets – which is always a bonus in my book.

Prague / Art

One of the best contemporary art gallery in the city.

New York / Restaurant

Paris in Brooklyn, etc. I have to try hard not to say 'Garçon.' But either way, 'monsieur' would be more appropriate; proper French waitstaff, proper French food.
