Tokyo / Park

Serene, calm, intimate park

Paris / Gallery

Architecturally stunning, a beautiful and harmonious space showcasing contemporary art. I've often seen some amazing work here and been introduced to new artists making great work. There is a beautiful outdoor space, with installations by Agnes Varda.

San Francisco / Place

Murals! where? everywhere! walls, streets, signs, windows. keep your eyes peeled. I walk a lot in San Francisco and always seem to find new murals in the least expected places. They are a constant source of inspiration, and make me wish I could paint worth a damn.

Berlin / Bookstore

It is an English language bookstore centering on non-western, diasporic, and queer perspectives. Many many many rare and special books carefully selected by Siddhartha Lokanandi that is the soul of this place! Check it, it is unforgettable :)

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.

Copenhagen / Creative Space

A lovely co-working space & café, in my favourite neighbourhood in Copenhagen. The community here is warm & welcoming, and the space itself is a dream. Hardwood floors, dusted gem-tone walls, designer furniture, Depanneur coffee, and great lighting in a period building. If you're freelancing within the city for the long-term, or for the short — I'd wholly recommend having a visit.

Stockholm / Restaurant

If you want to try something outside the city center this is a really beautiful small gem. They cook delicious seasonal food and have a nice selection of cheese and charcuterie for your wine. Best to book table beforehand.

Munich / Attraction

There are two lion statues standing at the entrance of the Public Treasury building. The first time I passed this site, I was quite surprised to see more that one persons passing by them, rubbing there nose as if they would be little doggies. Even bikers hold on to give them a little stroke. For some reasons rubbing their noses is meant to give you good luck. Looking at how the material got polished, I can imagine how people are sensitive to myths or just superstitious. So am I... now each time I pass there, I do the same.

Naoshima / Art

Naoshima is one of the most breathtaking places I've ever visited. It's an art island, full of wonderful museums and art objects immersed in stunning, calm and paradise-like nature. Rent a bike and enjoy all that beauty. If you are Yayoi Kusama's or Tadao Ando's fan, you know what I mean.

London / Art

6a architects transformed the six-storey building at the corner of Redchurch Street into a multidisciplinary space. A shop, a gallery, a restaurant.

New York / Museum

Here's what the world used to look like.

Toronto / Park

Toronto’s largest public park with many hiking trails, playgrounds, lake views, vegetation, picnic areas, a small zoo, coffee place, greenhouses, sport facilities throughout the year. A close place to my home and work, one of my favorites places to go, think, enjoy with my family or go on my own in a photographic walk on daylight or at night.
