There’s One Less Amy in Camden Town
As I was happily tweeting Saturday morning I switched over to Facebook for literally one second and saw that someone had posted three small but devastating words: RIP Amy Winehouse. I immediately assumed it was a joke. After all, only a few weeks ago #RIPNickiMinaj was trending on twitter and we all know she is
Paris Underground Music Guide
This a guest post by Patrick Perlmutter. There is no doubt that Paris is a city rich in culture, beauty, and art. It was the home to Voltaire, Molière, Hemingway and countless other artists, writers, and politicians that helped shape the country’s landscape and heritage.

Street Art in the East Village
A few weeks ago my videographer and I decided to take a little stroll through the East Village and profile a few streets with some pretty amazing street art. It’s safe to say that almost anywhere you wander in New York City, graffiti is not far behind. The outer boroughs of Brooklyn and Queens are

Annika is to thank for our artist this week, Martina Molin, who also hails from Stockholm, Sweden. The two were recently reunited in
Local Living: The NY Public Library
This post is by Jessica Tiare Bowen, one of our contributors. Flanked on both sides by New York’s iconic lions, Patience and Fortitude, sits my very favorite New York City institution: The New York Public Library (NYPL). Having been an avid lover of all things books from a very young age, I decided to delve
The Perks and Pitfalls of Being a Nomad
There are two types of people in this world. The people that avoid chaos and the people who thrive in it. I’m clearly the latter since I find comfort being in large, loud and overly crowded cities and feel strangely anxious in “normal” living conditions. Yet, at my core the things I love most are
Top Five Romantic European Cities
It’s hard not to think about romance when you are in Europe. Cobble stoned streets, ice cream at every corner and more flower vendors than you probably care to count, European cities almost seem like they were specifically designed for fairy tales. Now, despite the fact that I’ve never flown across the globe for the
