Tankstell is a melting pot of good music, nice talks and discussions, small markets or simply a cosy bar to have a cold beer after work. Its name is swiss german for gasoline station.

beautiful small craft beer bar with a cafe vibe. wonderful owners, thoughtful beer selection and interior. 

Great cocktails and with vinyl selectors playing rarities on weekends... acoustics is impeccable.

One of the biggest parks in the inner city. When I was small, everyone would tell me never to go there, for it was considered the drugs-park of vienna. growing up I realised that it was mere exageration and this beautiful park became my favourite. there is the vienna river running right next to it, for sure it is not the cleanest, but for me it gives an amazing element of urbanity to the whole area. The river is loosing itself in a dark viaduct-like opening, and saga has it that in this tunnels at other times rave partys would take place. the park itself is beautiful, sourrounded by the city, with the fabulously hideous hotel intercontinental building, and the marble statues leading along the river, that changes it size seemingly daily, according to the weather, next to it you find one of vienna’s most beautiful cinemas, the gartenbaukino, as well as nice cafes, my favorite being the “das kleine cafe”. a wonderful experience is limited to summertime and made me often take the long way round when returning late night: you will find yourself in the middle of all kinds of animals lively running about, 5 hedgehogs, 7 rats, 12 ducks, one badger, mice and a heron. I love to find them there crossing the park.

This is my favorite place in Lawrence. I always enjoy attending the educational events frequently held here. When I first visited, I fell in love with the un-updated look and teal walls with curved archways. When you walk in the front doors, the first thing you see is an incredible panoramic display of mammals. I could stand in front of the panorama forever; I often go there to feel inspired.

I have just recently finished a project installing a drawing for artist Alan Johnston onto the ceiling of the Tate Britain. The experience, although being somewhat taxing on peoples health with long hours and difficult working conditions was fantastic. The mediative and mind altering drawing practice that Alan has created combined with the enthusiasm of a team of talented individuals has resulted in what can be considered a great work of art. It will be open to the public later this year. 

Looking for an early morning coffee on the way to work or a place to go for a couple beers on a Saturday night? The Power & The Glory is definitely the place, with a great crowd consisting of Cape Town's finest and a constant stream of good music, it's hard not to feel at home in this cozy joint.

Secondhand works of fiction, film & philosophy sold in a shop with gatherings & special events.

Ex theatre, ex d.i.y squat exhibition space, the W139 has now evolved into an official playground for contemporary art. Most works are made site specifically and are not for sale. This creates an exciting platform for experimentation. This gigantic space; absurd oasis in the middle of the invasion of sex toys, plastic pizzas & weed souvenirs of the Red Light District, is a must see. The openings are legendary and gather all the art kids in town. I use to work here as a host, as a barman, and I even designed their invitations from 2007 to 2008. All of my friends work or exhibited here, and it's one of my regular stops when biking around.

Recommended by hipsters and did not disappoint. Excellent coffee and even better music.

Crazy shots! order Monica Lewinsky's shot for a good laugh.
