Amsterdam / Museum

The Bartolotti is perhaps one of the most beautiful Museum Houses Amsterdam has, built by someone who once was the richest man in the city, but it's a bit hidden in plain sight. These days, it is run by a group of lovely old ladies, who can't wait to offer you tea or juice. You can walk around the house like you live there. You have to ring the doorbell to get in.

Amsterdam / Shop

This store is filled floor to ceiling with vintage glass- and tableware from France and other countries surrounding the Netherlands. It is a gem for finding birthday or housewarming gifts.

Amsterdam / Shop

If you have money to blow, this is a great place to blow it on Italian vintage designer pieces. I say Armani, you say ... Prada!

Kivik / Restaurant

If you are looking for a reason to visit Kivik, Ulla & Folke are that reason. Their food is great. Their natural wine is great. Their traditionally Swedish interior is great. Their hospitality is great and their logo is strangely Copenhagen hip, in the middle of the South Sweden countryside. I'm sorry I have no better picture, but do check their Instagram account. It is lovely.

Kivik / Art Centre

There's a Sol LeWitt pavilion in the middle of a wheat field in Skåne, and it is part of the Kivik Art Centre. This centre sounds like a crafty old ladies thing, but it is not. It a lovely surprise of modern art with a sea view. Go there, look at art, pet the sheep and then go swim in the coldest sea of Europe - the Baltic.

Amsterdam / Illustrator

Amsterdam based illustrator Sue Doeksen (1982) creates worlds that are overpopulated with bright colors, friendly shapes, layered or light concepts and hidden jokes. Mediums ranging from physical, digital, pencil-drawn, paper-cut, and animated. Juggling commercial and personal project balls she is often overwhelmed because there are so many visual adventures to be made at the same time and therefore wishes there were just many more hours in a day.
