This café is where I go when I want to feel at home and spoil myself with food prepared with passion and care. I spend hours between a coffee and a carrot cake while working on my computer

This bar is all about simplicity. Cheap but strong and drinks, interesting crowd, amazing vinyl only dj's playing dance songs you think you know but you really don't, and a great bouncy floor from all the people dancing to New Order late into the night. Nothing fancy and it's really dark. I go there way too much.

This nearly 200-year-old bar— reputedly the oldest in Barcelona, is an absynthe bar. Was one of the locations from Vicky Christina Barcelona's film. The Marsella is one of those places that Hemingway supposedly loved to frequent (Hemingway being to bars in Spain what George Washington is to inns in New England).

This theater was built right before the Great Depression, turned into a mutliplex at one point in time, set to be demolished then volunteers got together to restore/preserve it. It's entirely run by volunteers, they do screenings about once a month as well as some live events, I saw Courtney Barnett and Kurt Vile here. There's no other theater like it in the NYC area. They have a fully functional pipe organ. It's hard to get people across the river to visit, but everybody I've convinced to do so has come back for additional screenings. The last thing I saw was a double feature of "Vertigo" and "Mulholland Drive," both in 35mm.

The First Cemetery of Athens, also known as the Cemetery of the Athenians, is one of the oldest and most historic cemeteries in Athens, Greece. It was established in 1837 and was the first organized cemetery of the modern Greek state. It is located in the central Athens neighborhood of Mets, near the Temple of Olympian Zeus and the Panathenaic Stadium. The cemetery is the final resting place for many notable Greeks, including politicians, artists, writers, and scientists. Among the famous individuals buried there are the poet Kostis Palamas, the composer Mikis Theodorakis, the politician Eleftherios Venizelos, and the archaeologist Heinrich Schliemann. The First Cemetery of Athens is not only a place of mourning but also a cultural site with numerous sculptures, mausoleums, and ornate tombs. The cemetery is designed like a small park, with winding paths and shady trees that make it a peaceful and contemplative place to visit. It is also a popular tourist destination, with guided tours available to visitors who want to explore the cemetery's rich history. In recent years, the cemetery has undergone renovations to improve the facilities and preserve its historic monuments. Today, the First Cemetery of Athens remains an important cultural institution that provides a glimpse into Greece's past and honors the memory of its most illustrious citizens.

Sometimes when I wake up it feels like I am at sea watching a big ocean liner pass by. It is the view from my home in one of the two stepped concrete apartment blocks that make up the Brunswick Centre in Bloomsbury. When you visit skip the chain stores of the shopping centre below (except for the excellent Renoir Cinema) and instead get an invitation to one of the small but gorgeous flats with their winter gardens or just wander through the spectacular concrete A frames and across the vast sun drenched terraces on podium level.

A former industrial area nowadays is a place for art and culture. There you can find for example artist studios, exhibitions, concerts and cafés. I like the place because of its special charm of imperfection and its experimental atmosphere.

If you're ever in Manchester and stuck for art materials or a birthday card or fancy doing some laser cutter or risograph printing then Fred Aldous is the place for you. The shop has been open since 1886 with a man called Fred — a man with a bright idea and a cracking beard — decided to open a shop selling cane for baskets to carry cotton. Craft and community are at the very heart of the business. Look out for their amazing window displays designed by their amazing in-house team or local designers and makers.

The Odeon of Herodes Atticus is an ancient amphitheater located on the southwestern slope of the Acropolis in Athens, Greece. It was built in 161 AD by the wealthy Roman Herodes Atticus in memory of his wife, and it was used for music concerts, theatrical performances, and other cultural events. The Odeon of Herodes Atticus is a beautiful and well-preserved example of Roman-era architecture. It has a semi-circular shape with a diameter of 80 meters, and it could seat up to 5,000 spectators. The theater was built using white Pentelic marble, and it was covered by a wooden roof that has since been lost to time. In ancient times, the Odeon of Herodes Atticus was one of the most prestigious venues for musical and theatrical performances in Athens. It hosted many famous performers, including the Greek composer Mikis Theodorakis, the Spanish tenor Placido Domingo, and the American singer Frank Sinatra. Today, the Odeon of Herodes Atticus is still used as a venue for cultural events, especially during the summer months when the Athens Festival takes place. The theater's impressive acoustics and beautiful setting make it a popular destination for music and theater lovers from all over the world.
