I had a studio in this neighborhood for 3 years. Just take your camera and spend a couple hours walking around admiring the colors and people and odd shops. 

Little outdoor hand crafted play area for kids, down where the fishing boats are docked. Its really nice to hang out here after getting a hot chocolate or an icecream from the nearby amazing icecream parlour, Valdis. My son Johnny Vincent being all cool and viking like!

The best pizza I have ever tried (highly recommend Diavola Gialla)!

My first job in the city. The family and friends and raised New York Megan. Also very good coffee. And lovely neighbors.

The Shell Grotto is basically a subterranean passageway covered in mosaics created with seashells, 4.6 million shells apparently. Its quite incredible, I love it and its well worth a visit.

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. 

It's Oslos most popular sledging slope. It’s existed since 1900 and is 2000 metres long with a fall of 255 metres. You can rent a sledge at the top and my record down it is about 6 minutes. There’s no better place for making you feel like a little kid again!

An art center with artist studios set in a old colonial style ex asylum, some say it’s haunted, but from my experience it was haunted with great art ! Attached is also a yummy garden cafe perfect for lunch 

We found this beautiful store by accident while wandering around hilly Lisbon in the sunshine. A beautiful menagerie of vintage finds, curated designers, accessories and trinkets. Housed in a high-ceilinged, big windowed architectural treat. My perfect home (shop wise). I left with a Parisian summer dress in peacock tones, and a big smile. The staff were helpful and lovely, and coincidentally I had something in common with the gorgeous owner. We shared stories of graphic design and Leeds Art College—it really is a small world.

Cafe Modern Amsterdam is located in an old bank building in the north of Amsterdam. Authentic elements remind of the previous life of the building. You eat a delicious daily changing 4-course menu. Every day the freshest ingredients of the season. 

Best pasta and food in town! In a very cute setup 

This nightclub has a great soundsystem and wonderful, diverse lineup... A lot of disco and italo... People come to dance, it has a safe space policy and its not druggy - and they have great wine and cocktails. (Yes, Im a resident there, hehe)
