Tom Codd moves through Madrid the way locals do: not as a tourist checking boxes, but as someone attuned to the city’s quieter rhythms. The Argentine-born visual artist and filmmaker reveals his Madrid: the century-old tapas bar that has never needed reinvention, the perfumery where browsing becomes discovery, the brutalist tower that refuses to blend in. From the barrio energy of Malasaña to the emerging pulse of Tetuán, this is the city as it’s actually lived.
Michail doesn’t do Athens for the tourists. He moves through it the way someone does when the city is genuinely theirs: knowing which taverna earns a birthday dinner, which rooftop holds its own against the Acropolis view, and which Kolonaki side street hides the best espresso in the neighbourhood. If you want the version of Athens that takes years to find, this is where you start.

In an age of constant connectivity, mechanical watchmaking feels almost subversive. These watches make a deliberate choice about what time should feel like. They reject the frictionless, the algorithmic, the endlessly scrollable.
Ibiza’s design credentials were never about the prince tag. These five boutique hotels, from a converted watchtower in Dalt Vila to a beachfront stay in Es Caná, prove it.

The best backpacks do not shout. They simply outlast everything else in your wardrobe … and look good doing it.
Barcelona has no shortage of hotels chasing the postcard version of the city. The Hoxton, Poblenou plays a different game: set in the city’s industrial heart, it trades polish for something looser, cooler, more lived-in.
