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. 


Guided visits to 101 Spring Street offer direct engagement with Donald Judd’s art and vision. Advance reservations are required.

After a day of skiing in Steamboat resort or out in the surrounding backcountry, take the car or a shuttle bus to the natural hot springs just outside Steamboat downtown. It’s a gorgeous and incredibly relaxing outdoor natural spa where you can bath in differently heated pools. Jump in between the hot pools and the cold river for some extra blood circulations. They also provide massage and you can stay over night at the springs. However, I recommend staying in downtown or by the ski resort and go up to this beautiful spot for a couple of hours in the afternoon or evening. I went there during winter and I’m sure it’s as amazing during the rest of the year. 

Outdoor Bar and BBQ restaurant with amazing views of the harbour. Great place to spend warm summer evenings...

I was part of a ping pong game here once that resulted in a broken window, which was surprising, because it was the ball, not the paddle that broke a window. I guess it was either a very strong ping pong ball or a very weak window. I've never heard anyone in Atlanta refer to this bar as anything other than "Church." They do some live karoake, limited song selection as the musician is playing live. Ping pong and choir robes are upstairs, lots of different kinds of bars within walking distance.

British folk culture inspired pub. Head there on Sunday for a pint and a proper Northern roast.

Issey Miyake store. Amazing crew, wear, shop. 

Delicious drinks, nice courtyard, good music. 

Czech restaurant, food and beer. If you really want to see city skyline and Prague castle come to here and enjoy lunch on terrace when the weather is nice. They share garden with National Gallery Prague so it’s children friendly aswell.

This is probably my favorite venue in the middle Georgia area. I have seen a ton of great bands play here, plus my band has played here a few times. Bonus points for having a small gallery upstairs.

Almost 400 years later, as soon there is ice, people are still ice skating on the Hofvijver. It’s the most beautiful spot in Den Haag to practice this typical Dutch sport (some say it is not even a sport, but an important part of Dutch culture). Next to the Hofvijver are the Dutch parliament buildings, and the Mauritshuis (with some nice paintings)

A beautiful restaurant with an open kitchen. Perfect dinner spot for a special occasion.
