The Inside Out Project was created by the french artist JR to give communities a face through the faces of everyone that takes part in it. The project aims to initiate global change locally with large-format black-and-white portraits of community members. Together, they create a unique work of art that reflects a neighborhood.

Athens is so unique that we cannot imagine any other city where you can find an ancient roman tomb inside a Zara store. We expected to stumble upon ruins in Athens since it’s a quintessential historical city. But not in a clothing store.

This is why I really hate cyclists in Berlin. They go over red lights without even looking if there is a car coming or if there are people trying to cross the street. They cycle on the wrong side of the road, sometimes riding their bike straight into you. Some of them cycle next to you, trying to push you to go faster but not allowing you to go on your own rhythm. There are others that just block the entire bike lane while they talk to another person on a bike next to them. Why? If you want to talk to your friend, stop and talk. Don’t block the bike lane because you felt like sharing that gossip you heard somewhere.

As a designer, I have a thing for notebooks and paper products since I enjoy sketching out ideas. I believe I first found out about Papier Tigre back in 2016 when they still had a shop in Berlin-Mitte. When I first saw the shop, I had to stop by and get something new. Eventually, the shop closed down in Berlin, but I still got some stuff from them online.

We visited the Bauhaus Museum in Dessau back in the summer of 2021. During that trip, we visited Dresden, Leipzig, Halle and Dessau, and this museum was one of the most memorable parts. It was the first destination on our trip to celebrate the COVID-19 booster shot.

The Panathenaic Stadium is a must see tourist destination in Athens and a unique architectural destination since it's the only stadium in the world built entirely out of marble. But what makes this place stand out from everything that we saw in Greece is that this place is where the first modern Olympics Games were hosted back in 1896.

The Hafencity Universität Station is a U-Bahn station in Hamburg famous for its gorgeous futuristic colourful illumination. For us, it looked like a movie set, something out of Blade Runner and we knew we had to go there.

Agios Nikolaos is a small chapel in Megalochori, located on the island of Santorini. But this small church isn't like any other church, and it was built in the rocky cliffs that overlook the crater and the Aegean sea below. Its bell tower has the traditional triptych of bells that can be found all around the Greek islands, but this feels more unique due to its location.

We were in Mykonos in the summer of 2021, exploring the Aegean sea island while onboard Running on Waves. When we reached Mykonos, we had a small list of places to visit, and the windmills of Mykonos were high on that list. Mainly because we have seen them online and they looked gorgeous and, second, because we visited windmills in Berlin before. This is something that we do whenever we travel somewhere.

The first thing that caught our attention at the Lavirotte Building was the door. A door so beautiful that we decided to name it the most beautiful door in Paris unofficially. But, once we got home from our trip, we went through our pictures and decided to research a bit about the building. This research leads us to learn about the work of architect Jules Lavirotte.

The Berlin Wall Memorial, also known in German as Gedenkstätte Berliner Mauer, is a mix of monuments and museums commemorating the city's division by the Berlin Wall and the people who died because of it. And we consider it to be the best place to learn about the wall and how it affected the city and the entire continent.
