Los Angeles / Hotel

Private and romantic

Paris / Restaurant

Delicious. Mainly, if you've never been - go and get the chocolate mousse for dessert because you won't shut up about it for years to come.

Tokyo / Shop

Shibaura House is a unique workshop space in an office district. The building was designed by Kazuyo Sejima, an architect who has often worked outside of Japan. The first floor has self-published zines from all over the world, sent in by small publishers. It's kind of like a park: there are tables and chairs that anyone can sit on while looking at the zines. It's free of charge.

Oakland / Restaurant

Line out the door, but worth it for the chicken sandwich and shortcake.

Los Angeles / Place

Mural at the farmer Johns factory in vernon. Pictures of pigs in tranquility painted all over the outside walls that enclose their own meat slicing and sales.

New York / Bookstore

Stocks artists’ books and catalogs along with used and rare titles that focus on contemporary art, photography, and classical painting.

Holbox / Beach

Isla Holbox in Quintana Roo, Mexico, is the paradise itself. I've never seen anything like it. Nothing. Probably the best beach in the world.

Groningen / Academy

The Art Academy (Academie Minerva Groningen) has several buildings, and this one is still under construction, but some rooms/halls are already done. This is the main Exhibition Hall, and has different styles and kinds of art every month.

London / Restaurant

Best place to go for simple pasta dishes.

San Francisco / Area

Some areas of San Francisco are so steep that the sidewalk literally is a stairway; other times it’s just more interesting to have a stairway between streets… or a slide. I once saw a grown man with a briefcase matter-of-factly go down this slide and continue on his way down the hill. Why not?

Antwerp / Gallery

Axel Vervoordt Gallery is a renowned art gallery, arts and antiques trading organization, with an interior design department for worldwide customers. Is at 20 min from Antwerp. Amazing.

Kyoto / kiosk

This is a local liquor store that has been here since before I was born, offering not only alcohol but also rice, tobacco, and other daily necessities. The owner, who is always there in the mornings and afternoons, is a very friendly and wonderful person. You can buy and drink inside the store, and smoking is allowed as well. I often see people gathering to enjoy a drink, smoke, and have casual conversations with the owner. This kind of super-local, cozy atmosphere is one of my favorite things about the place.

Washington / Art Director

I wear many hats – most of which can't be showcased on one platform! I do the most all the time and challenge humans to do better and be better. I believe art heals, listening is important, traveling is essential and one shouldn't be judged for their love of adult onesies. Just sayin. ;)
