Accra

I enjoy this beach mostly at night, because it reveals the real "architectural" aesthetics and its marvellously decorated beachfront with thatch roofs, summer huts, beautiful bonfire and scented oil lamps.

At this beach, I get to have a practical contact with two exceptional climate zones in close proximity and also see the offshore oil rigs at work. This eco-lodge beach is always a favourite destination anytime I am in the western part of Ghana.

Officially known as the La Pleasure Beach, anytime I visit Labadi beach, it is because of the scenic stretch of sand. Due to its spacious shoreline lined with sparse coconut trees, I am offered that lovely opportunity to have a great walk with cool breeze, enjoy horseback rides, delicious street food, and live band music without travelling out of town.

I love Bojo Beach to the core. You have to travel far out the capital city to relax by the sea, it offers great intimate and pleasant experiences and you can also canoe!

La Bella Verde

Ibiza

It is just crazy, beautiful. If you want to reach it by land, it's a massive hike and definitely not everybody is up for that or even capable of getting there. So it's easier by boat. It's such an impressive place, the colour of the water, the history of the place. It's just an amazing, unique and beautiful place.

Es Vedrà is this huge rock sticking out of the water with many myths written about it. It's supposed to be, super magnetic and contributing to the magical energy of the island. And there's this old pirate myth that due to the magnetic forces of the rock like compasses would be spinning around like crazy, and people would not be able to know the way north was and they would crash. These are all stories, but it is a very impressive place to sail past.

It's just very beautiful and the whole West Coast really is quite impressive to sail past because of the geometric rock formations and caves.

This is where one of our boats is based and it has these beautiful, white sand beaches like Playa de Migjorn and the caves!

On the way from the port of Formentera to Cala Saona, there are these swim-in caves. We get close by and then you can jump off the boat and swim into them.

This is a beautiful private island on the east coast. It is a really magical place as well. Beautiful water and just an amazing location.

Havana

I highly recommend a visit to the other side of the bay of Havana, the way to get there is by the “Lanchitas de Regla” (small boats). Known for being a town with a strong cultural tradition, especially with regard to Afro-Cuban religiosity and spirituality, it’s also a place known for its musicians.

The University of the Arts, built in 1976, is undoubtedly one of the city's architectural emblems. Twenty minutes from the centre of Havana, the ISA is a campus full of vegetation with domes and tunnels that from an aerial view, suggest breasts, fallopian tubes and vaginas. Despite having five buildings, you can only access the ‘artes circenses’ building that is currently abandoned. Ideal place to meditate, read or picnic with friends.

Exquisite live jazz club. Located in a basement of 23rd Avenue in the heart of the Vedado neighbourhood. A space where you can really get a feel for the musical talent found in the city.

The spot for fresh, natural juices. Ideal place to stop and cool down from the sun. It’s one of the few places I know where you can find a variety of juices without sugar, made in the moment with fresh fruits and vegetables. Only accepts national currency.

One of the best views of the city and sea. Admission is free for everyone, no matter if you are not staying at the hotel. Highly recommended spot for the sunset.

The greenest area in the city, where the smell of the earth is penetrating. With lush vegetation and trees brought from Africa, it is a space full of spirituality where many works of Afro-Cuban santeria are practised.

In the summer season there’s nothing better than swimming at Club Náutico.

This is a natural park where the facilities and nature merge in an enveloping way. Ideal to arrive by bicycle and enjoy the musical activities that are offered, mainly for children on weekends.

Havana would not be Havana without the Malecon. The Wall that protects the ocean and the place that gives us the best sunsets and sunrises from any point. It is the ideal place for all those things that make life more beautiful.

Darkovibes

Twist night club is my go to location when it’s comes to night life in Accra. Growing up, I heard so many stories about the club which intrigued me to visit the club some day. It has an indoor studio where I record sometimes as well.

A beach house with a serene environment suitable for any kind of mood.


Go there order the ginger shot and Kokroko, your night will be made. They have some of the nicest calamari too.


I love Epos just because it runs 24 hours a day & any time of the day I can get food from them.

A beautiful rooftop view with live band performances.


Anytime I can’t go to Belleza Beach club due to the distance you’ll find me at Labadi beach riding a horse.


This club runs till morning. It’s definitely a vibe anytime me and my friends go there.

Yosemite

This is the place to camp, the only first come first serve campground in Yosemite. Camp 4 is listed on the National Register of Historic Places because of its nationally significant role in the development of rock climbing as a sport. You will meet travellers and climbers from all over the world here.

My favorite place to look up at El Capitan. Yosemite’s most iconic formation, rising 3000ft straight up from the valley floor. Once you've parked, grab a blanket, snacks, and a beverage. With these items in hand, find a spot to relax and enjoy the sunset. A spot that is my favorite is right next to the tree on the eastern side of the meadow.

If you’re into sunsets this is the spot. Park at the Taft Point trailhead and hike 20-30 minutes. You'll get impressive views of the north valley wall, including El Capitan (which you'll actually be looking down on) and Yosemite Falls.

Taking the Mist Trail up to Nevada Falls is one of my favorite hikes. The steep hike follows the Merced River. Starting at Happy Isles in Yosemite Valley, you’ll hike past Vernal Falls and Emerald Pool, ending at Nevada Falls. Hiking to Nevada Falls is around 3.5 miles and the views are breathtaking all along the way.

If it’s raining or you just feel like chilling inside. The Ahwahnee has big sitting rooms and is the best place to read a book under the impressive architecture.

Best pizza in the Valley. After a big day out this is my go-to: grabbing a pizza and cold beverage.

If you forget any supplies and need anything from clothing to climbing gear this place has it all.

This natural spring is just off the road while driving into Yosemite Valley. It’s a great place to fill up water bottles and take a break. Some say the water is healing.

This is a Yosemite classic, a fun long 5.10 climb that takes you floor to rim. Covering lots of ground with a solid partner are some of my favorite days out.

This might be the best 5.11c multi-pitch rock climb on earth. Every pitch is high-quality and would be sought after individual classics were they at any crag, but stacked on top of each other they create a superb and memorable challenge. The climbing is secure, well protected, and physical.

Club twist is popping! It took me 4 years to get into the Club Twist, if you get in you're made! If you haven't met the bouncer FM you haven't been to Twist.

After the party it's the after party! It's for the after partiers, when you leave Twist you go to Ace Tantra. Look out for my guys Yeho and Pablo Ghost they'll look after you.

Drinks to order - Ginger Shots, Kokokro & taste their Calamari - it makes sense!

All types of vibes from food/drinks to live music and horse riding.

Johannesburg

This is a collection of shops, restaurants and galleries all in one space in Johannesburg. My favourite spot to go to when I am there is called "Peachy" they have incredible "Asianesque Wings" that you need to try out. They also have live music which is always great, especially when it is Jazz!

This is one of the best places I have been to in Johannesburg. The food is incredible, the music is so nice and the overall aesthetic of the place is amazing, in fact, I shot some scenes for my music video "Sunday" in the venue. When you go there you need to ask for Katlego Mlambo, he is the head chef - award winning type of guy.

This is a really cool place to go chill on a Saturday afternoon, it is a food and drink market that happens in the city, great views, good music and tasty food is always a good combination.

My favorite part about these gardens is the river with the fish, I like feeding the fish, it is so peaceful and green. Oh, they also have ducks and ducks are really cute. Sometimes, you just need to sit under a tree and breathe in fresh air with your shoes off, this is the perfect place for this.

This is an old school cinema based in Braamfontein, which is near Johannesburg city centre. They showcase indie films there, both local and international. It's really great to spend an evening watching indie films and eating popcorn, I feel so vintage when I do that.

This place is really cool, it is a lifestyle centre made up of over 100 empty shipping containers filled with different fashion and retail stores, there are also some really cool coffee shops with great doughnuts, they sometimes have live music too, if you watching live music you need a glass of wine. South Africa has the best wine.

This rooftop is on the 15th Floor of a designer hotel in the middle of Johannesburg City Centre, the views of the city are incredible and the sunsets are even better. If you ever find yourself in this beautiful venue you have to try the Oysters, they are unbelievable.
