Copenhagen / Museum

Oxford / Place

Carfax is a tower in the centre of Oxford, from the top you can see across the whole city.

Home State is known for their Texas-style breakfast Tacos. Next door to it there's a wine bar called Bar Covell, which lets you bring your tacos from next door and eat them while you have a glass of wine. Don't order more than two breakfast tacos if you don't want leave there with your pants unbuttoned.

Tokyo / Cafe

Montevideo / Park

West of the city you can find beautiful gardens and parks in a zone called Prado. All surroundings are green with nature colors and smells. In this area you can find the Botanic, this is a special place to me and my inspirations.

Los Angeles / Shop

The greatest video store in the world! With 72,000 VHS tapes in their collection, they have dedicated themselves to the art of losing yourself in a great movie and pride themselves on their vast collection of rare and oddball films. As Blockbuster video stores have begun to go out of business, Eddie Brandt's still lives!!!!

Los Angeles / Restaurant

Yes- I'm going to anger some people by sharing this hidden gem with you. It is very special and I expect hate mail. They have been serving Japanese comfort food since the late 60's and is the last gasp of a neighborhood in Boyle Heights that was once predominantly Japanese. No frills. Just a warm and loving environment- a place to escape and eat spicy tuna rice bowls and sip miso with your Japanese Grandmother. Shhh, don't tell anyone.

Copenhagen / Club

This nightclub has a great soundsystem and wonderful, diverse lineup... A lot of disco and italo... People come to dance, it has a safe space policy and its not druggy - and they have great wine and cocktails. (Yes, Im a resident there, hehe)

London / Bar

I love this space.

London / Architecture

Where 1984 of George Orwell got its inspiration from, the craziness of a real ministry of propaganda.

New York / River

Needs no introduction.

New Delhi / Art Centre

Black Box Okhla is performance art space and residency that offers a blank canvas to theatre productions that build worlds within it and how. Plays here to are no ordinary performer/audience set ups.

I consider myself a lover of both images and words, almost equally. I believe in magic, I’m obsessed with details and thrilled by light. Every morning, after washing my face, I gently close my eyes and am overcome by an unrelenting need to be under the sea.
