A spin around the park on a bike makes me feel good. One lap is about 6.13 miles. I've trained here for longer rides (including this London to Paris ride on a track bike that was 86 miles one day, rest on the second day, and 136 miles on the third day). I've sat there on a Sunday afternoon and have done as many as 10 laps (with rests in between). I switch in-between my carbon road bike and my steel track bike.

London / Shop

One of my favourite record shop in London! The iconic Rough Trade, in the heart of Ladbroke Grove, just off Portobello Road.

Paris / Cafe

A favorite for a fast espresso. My friends run this cafe and serve coffea roasted in Paris.

London / Shop

This is a great, free and lesser known spot in London. A glass lift takes you up the side of st.Paul's cathedral right out onto the roof terrace of this shopping centre. A great view over London.

Ghent / Natural Area

If you would like to go swimming when you are in the city, this is the place to be! It is a 20 minute drive from the center of the town. Set in the natural area of Deinze it features outdoor swimming and a little cafe where you can grab a drink and a bite. It is an old-fashioned place where grandmothers play cards and has flemish feel to it. The surroundings are great for walking, so get out and explore!

Nashville / Art Centre

An interesting, off the beaten path art building that houses multiple artist-run gallery spaces. Open during the week with new art exhibits happening every first Saturday of the month.

Berlin / Shop

Best record store in Berlin. A great selection of Rock, Folk, Indie, Wave, Industrial and especially the huge floor dedicated to House and Techno Records. Staff are typical Berlin-Style - not very friendly but very knowledgeable.

London / Park

Whipps Cross boating lake is a true hidden East end gem. Located on Whipps Cross flats midway between Walthamstow and Wanstead.

Barcelona / Bar

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

Buenos Aires / Bar

A flower shop is a perfect stop for enjoying Mother Nature's colorful creations. But this bright space has a trick up its sleeve: a stylish bar in the basement. In addition to the charming hidden location, the drinks are impeccable.

New York / Shop

Coming Soon knows exactly what furniture and objects you need to make your apartment cooler than you are. The store’s (female) owners’ backgrounds in fine art and high design are clear, and they work directly with designers to bring in a carefully curated selection of pieces new and old.

Reykjavik / Architecture

Is Reykjaviks most famous church. Whenever my friends or family come to visit I take them up to the top where the bells are. You can see all the sides of Reykjavik from above. Its slightly cheaper than a helicopter ride! Just don't go up when the bells are ringing as there is 12 and they are loud.
