Mekelburg's is equal parts hipster bodega, bar and sandwich haven. I always go for the cheese counter, the babka and the late night fried chicken sandwich, which is hands down one of the best I've had in NY.

Carrboro / Market

This is the most ALIVE part of the city and it's smack in the center of downtown. Here'll you'll find....Spontaneous drum circles. People lingering for hours over bottles of wine. Some dude dancing alone to music inside his head. Professors hanging out with their students. Hoopers doing their thing (Carrboro is the East Coast capital of hopping). People from different continents discussing politics and arcane academic issues. Musicians from whatever band is in town that night happy to be able to grab a healthy meal. This is the true center of town and a place where you can end up spending giant chunks of the day and night.

Liverpool / Music Venue

"The Phil" is an Art Deco concert hall on Hope Street that hosts concerts, comedians and films.

Osaka / Cafe

Cute little coffee place we stumbled across in Osaka.

New York / Restaurant

One of the best pasta dishes i've ever had. Raggu pastas are heaven!

Bangkok / Department Store

The Big C in Saphan Khwai, has reasonable prices, and is well stocked. Even picked up some t-shirts and underwear!

Rome / Gallery

Always interesting expositions and one of my favorite entrances of all Rome.

New York / Shop

Intimate east village record shop with an excellently curated selection of second hand and new vinyl.

London / Cinema

A small, independent cinema with a lot to offer the Brixton wanderer. As well as operating like you would expect a converted theatre-to-cinema to, Ritzy offers exclusive, niche film viewings, two bars and an upstairs live music venue. All of which provide an amazing platform to be 'culture-slapped' into shape.

Stafford / Museum

The Shire Hall Gallery is in the central area of Stafford town and is an exhibition space, library and cafe rolled into one. Recent exhibitions have included paper-cutting artist, Rob Ryan.

Florence / Museum

La Specola is one of my favourite museums I have ever visited. The museum is a branch of the Natural History Museum of the University of Florence and is one of the oldest science museums in Europe, built in 1775 with the aim of gathering the natural treasures collected by different generations of the Medici family, such as fossils, animals, minerals and exotic plants. You really have to go. The displays are stunning and odd, also the Zoological Collection is full of specimens and old taxidermy pieces. On top of that there is also a quite "scary" collection of about 1,400 pieces of anatomical waxworks (made between the end of the 18th century and the beginning of the 19th century).

London / Shop

One of my favourite record shop in London! The iconic Rough Trade, in the heart of Ladbroke Grove, just off Portobello Road.

Moscow / Photographer

I was born in St Petersburg, then, at 11, moved to Siberia where I have lived for 12 more years, graduated from a local university before returning to my hometown in 1998. I took various jobs there before finally turning to photography. From last August I am based in Moscow, a mad metropolis full of contrasts, energy and drama at every corner. In terms of urban design and architecture, many consider it a failed city, and you really have to know it from the inside to be able to appreciate its vibrance and dynamics. In this nostalgic picture (by Savva Bogatyrev), I am on a tram back in St Pete with my wife Veronika.
