I know, this is two Museums of the Month in just one day but I just have to tell you about the Wellcome Collection, or how they put it, The free destination for the incurably curious.  It helps that it's just... More

I do love a good weird museum and to be honest, it doesn't get much better or weirder than this little treasure. And when it comes recommended to me by Moritz Waldemeyer it was guaranteed not to disappoint. So when I was... More

I have to admit, every time I see some scaffolding I'm amazed it doesn't fall down. Not a chance for this to happen with this Super Scaffolding I saw in Budapest recently.   More

I saw this amazing set of mosaics on a 1970's East German office block in Potsdam recently. It's called 'Man conquers Space' (Der Mensch bezwingt den Kosmos) by artist Fritz Eisel. You really can't get much more Socialist than that.... More

I've just come back from the most amazing holiday in Transylvania. I'll tell you more about it very soon. I just though I'd share these pictures I've taken of beautiful beehives on trailers. These were everywhere and looked great in... More
