The best place for a glass of wine*. It's the perfect balance – not too formal, not too informal either. Food is consistently good. Lamb's Conduit Street is a little oasis in the midst of Bloomsbury. (*slightly overpriced)

In one of the most beautiful places in Vilnius - near the Mountain Park and the Neris - there is a small Japanese garden with a spring Sei Shin En (in the heart of Thira).

This is a tiny street with a lot of character and can be often missed. I love the little brick houses and coloring of the street.

Café Breizh will hit the spot if you’re in the mood for a crêpe. Which in my case, is often. They’ve got them in spades, along with savoury galettes and buckets of cider. Mmmm. It was a popular spot so get in there early. The reason it made my favourites was the delicious (organic) fare. But more importantly (for me anyway) the lovely staff who brought my kid an extra plate with a sweet, for her toy ‘Doggle’. So Café Breizh—you’re ace. I would have taken some more useful pictures but I was distracted by the ‘Timbres Papiers Timbres’ tile typography outside.

Local bike parts/repair shop. Tom, the owner, is always helpful and willing to share his expertise.

Vibrant place for lunch / dinner, high level street food, Urban vibes. Cozy during winter and a large sunny terrace during summer. Highly recommended!

With a population of over 7 million, Hong Kong is one of the most densely populated cities, so it's no wonder it's filled to the brim with high rise flats. Architecturally, these are not the most sophisticated, but I chose this photo for the washed out pastel colours. I'm also drawn to the rows and rows of air conditioning units on the exteriors of the building.

The walk along the South Bank from Westminster to Tower Bridge will take you past a plethora or interesting sights and cultural hotspots. There's always something interesting going on too.

Great beer and whisky selection, a friendly crowd, and top quality music programming upstairs, you can't go wrong with The Lexington

Apart from Dia Beacon, in Beacon (upstate New York about an hour away from Grand Central Station) and also the Judd Foundation in Soho, this institution is absolutely one of my favourite places to visit and it is located in Long Island City, Queens. It showcases sculpture in the broadest sense and has an incredible building that used to be a workshop that refurbished and fixed subway cars. It has been running since 1928 and when you visit you will definitely see why that is.

This is where I walk my dog, it’s 289 acres acres of woodland right on the edge of the city and there are half built dens everywhere. I usually get lost and have to get rescued by strangers.

It's such an iconic building and it's always a joy to be anywhere near it. It just dominates the landscape around it. Ever since I first saw the cover of Pink Floyd's Animals I've loved it and I still do. There are always reports in the news for plans for developers to spend billions on refurbishing it. I'd genuinely prefer it to remain as it is rather than see it being turned it into a massive shopping centre full of chain stores. The thought of it being turned into some kind of Westfield full of people on Facebook on their laptops in a Starbucks fills me with rage.
