Venice / Restaurant

With a wood panelled interior and romantic low light, this restaurant exudes the type of atmosphere you imagine of a high seas luxury cruise or train travel in the 1920s. The waiters are officiously attentive, the food incredibly tasty and fresh and the experience one not to be missed in Venice. Located near the Peggy Guggenheim Museum, you cross a small bridge and enter directly into the front door of this cosy eatery. Great spot for an authentic Venetian meal and opportunity to dine in a rather special canal-side interior.

Brighton / Pub

I dont like flash bars and pubs. I like committed boozers where you might get away with falling over or being a bit cheeky. This is my favourite pub in Brighton called the Heart and Hand. The juke box is full of some superb 45s inc The Who's Mary Anne with the Shaky Hands, Love's a House is not a Motel and Buffalo Springfield's I am a Child. The ales not bad and the bar staff are usually very nice.

Lisbon / Cafe

one of my favorites places to have a coffee or a drink. to work during day time or to enjoy some live music in the afternoon.

Los Angeles / karaoke

Max is the place for serious karaoke lovers and enthusiasts. I go almost every week during happy hour, which is $5 an hour anytime before 8P. Pro tip: ask for Joy Sound.

London / Shop

A station, a stop or two away from London sits a shop that is only open once or twice a year – its specialty are books but it also sells things.

Best Underground music store in Barcelona, with local artist and labels.

They sell Film, Cameras, Polaroid, Photography Accessories, etc. They also do photography sharing session, & workshops irregularly. The Founder of Filme has the largest collection of unprocessed film in the World - Guinness World Records.

London / Art

Go check out this very untypical gallery in the underground. You don't need a ticket and it does only take you a second to soak in the art displayed.

Copenhagen / Cafe

La Banchina (The Pier) is my favourite cafe in Copenhagen, located beautiful on Refshaeløen, facing Copenhagen harbour, this place offer great coffee, homemade baked goods . For lunch and dinner La Banchina offers season’s best organic and/or biodynamic vegetables and seafood. (small dishes) No meat served. excellent natural wine.

Stockholm / Shop

Run by a bunch of sound people, VILLA has some great contemporary and affordable art and is always worth a visit.

Milan / Museum

An icon of 1930s art deco in the heart of Milan. Villa Necchi was built by Pietro Portaluppi for the Necchi Campiglio family, which belonged to the Lombard industrial bourgeoisie.

Albany / Bar

Large beer-focused bar with great food housed in a historic former police station building. Great patio for gathering with nice city views. Free little pizzas with your drink order. Head downstairs after to the (sort of) secret Speakeasy for a 1920's inspired cocktail.
